Let's Talk About NARS!

[Mochapj]

A lot of the other big beauty brands have their own threads now, so I thought, why not NARS? Let's share news about new collections, feedback on products, etc here.

SPRING 2019:

Spoiler

APRIL 2019: NARS x CONNOR TINGLEY

Spoiler

Have you picked up anything from the collection so far? Do tell!

[Mochapj]

Honeydew, the 'color' collection comes out on the 15th at NARS and feb 1 everywhere else.

the hot sand collection is available at nordies so far.

[mlovexo]

Did you get the Multiple? I think that's the only other thing I'm interested in. Kari is gorgeous too, but not exactly unique.

[Mochapj]

I did get the multiple.  I love the hot sand illuminator but it doesn't love my combo oily skin.

the multiple will be a good compromise. I also picked up the compact with Laguna and hot sand.  

[spikeorrn]

I am tempted by the Laguna/hot sand compact but want to see that hide & cheek palette first.  I wonder if hot sand will eventually be released as a permanent highlight blush.  It seems to fill a space between albatross & miss liberty...

[Mochapj]

I love the hot sand shade, so I wanted it in powder form as well, but I need Laguna and Orgasm like I need a hole in the head.

i only picked the Laguna one because I have less Lagunas in my stash 😄

[spikeorrn]

I don't own Laguna, which is part of the reason I want to see the Hide & Cheek palette.  Is the powder form of Hot Sand very similar to Becca Moonstone do you think?

[Mochapj]

I'd say Hot Sand is closer to Opal, out of BECCA shades.

It has more of a peach tone to it, at least in the liquid illuminator form.

I don't have my multiple or compact yet  to compare - they are en route from Nordies.  

[mlovexo]

Oh yeah I'm combo oily too so the liquid illuminator is out of the question haha.

I think I'm going to wait till I'm in store so I can swatch it.

I currently don't own anything by Nars yet (other than the birthday gift lip pencil set), but as a Christmas present my grandmother let me go crazy in Sephora and I finally got my hands on the velvet matte lip pencil in Train Bleu. I cannot even tell you how deeply in love I am with that colour.

I don't have any cheek palettes from Nars and I am totally considering this one.  The colors look so pretty! 

[jesscheems]

Same! I am just wondering if this palette will work for NC42 or not. I know I passed on the Steven Klein palette but this one looks a bit better. I don't own any NARS blushes so either this palette or I wait it out for Holiday 2016! Or I'll just get a couple single blushes that work for me..

[m26430]

That cheek palette is SOOOO similar to the Steven Klein!

[annypoo]

I know! Now I'm thinking I should've waited for this instead since I wasn't a big fan of the SK packaging. 

[Mochapj]

I wouldn't be surprised if it is the same palette, with a different name.  I know on Temptalia's page, she said the contour pieces and the bronzer are the same.  

[m26430]

Yep! She also listed the names of the blushes and they're different. my gripe is WHY make something SO similar? it detracts from the "limited edition" value of the Steven Klein palette. not to mention the fact that it may make people not feel inclined to get this palette seeing as 1/2 of this is the same as the SK. 

[malday]

Hammamet and Banned Red shall be mine

[jemly]

ohhhh particularly intrigued by rosecliff lipstick and the shadow duo !!

[vegchililover78]

Pretty! 😍

[ivyxox]

I'm eyeing on Kari!

[Gwenhwyfar]

Oh, the eyeshadow duo is a new one after all! That's going on my list.... And the 'Tarvos' DI eyeshadow sounds intriguing.

The blush sounds really nice, but I have some time on that if it is permanent. (I also read it being compared as the closest NARS Blush to the discontinued 'Douceur'.)
