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:

APRIL 2019: NARS x CONNOR TINGLEY

Spoiler

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

[Libellules]

Thanks Mocha! Telesto looked beautiful in store, but I don't know if it was different enough from anything I already have. In the bright lights of Sephora, it looked almost duochrome, but I wasn't sure.

Pasiphae is gorgeous. I ran out of time this morning - but I tracked down a Buzom No Faux this weekend and i think that + Pasiphae on top would be gorgeous :x (lightly applied, Pasiphae was just a nice iridescent shimmer :)).

Is this thread new??? I love NARS! I appreciate simplicity and quality. 

[Mochapj]

It is!  NARS is one of my favorite brands! 🙂

Hmm... I might have to look into the Oaxaca shadow stick... love that muted plummy taupe. 

I also go back and forth about converting my eye shadow collection solely to sticks and creams and ditching powders completely... but I don't think it will ever happen. 

But you can never have enough single-wash color options.

Anyone got the new 413BLKR blush duo? Thoughts?

[Mochapj]

I haven't yet.  I want it, but it barely shows up on my skintone doppelgänger (Karen of makeupandbeautyblog) and shipping from NARS is so pricy for mistakes...

[veronika23]

Boo 😞

Aglitterylife on YT has most of the new collection swatched (she freelances at a Nars boutique and has early access to the products). Personally the new stuff isn't for me, but considering I have more Nars than any other product in my collection, I'm not too worried about skipping a few.

[Mochapj]

That explains SO much.

I remember watching her swatch all 40 Audies last year and thought, how is she so lucky???

I'm passing on the shadow sticks and glosses, but I already bought everything else (sorry, not sorry :D)

[sweetxteeth]

that vip red lipstick made my knees buckle which is kinda amazing b/c i'm sitting down. i'm also interested in that sukhothai shadow stick and DI pasiphae. if i wasn't saving my money for 4 of the new kvd studded kiss lipsticks, these would probably be ordered already.

[Mochapj]

I went back and forth on that lippie for about a week... I kept thinking it can't possibly be different than all my other reds...

And maybe that's true... but I think it just might be.

[meganlisa]

It is different.  It's gorgeous.  Really velvety and subtle.  It would be stunning on you, in my opinion...

[darkiceis]

I got a sample of the Audacious mascara. I like it a lot more than what I thought and I really like the 'plastic' applicator. I might consider picking up the full size once I finish the sample.

[guzelkiz]

Hmm now I feel compelled to open the sample one I got.  I hate how there's so many mascaras to try and I don't want to open too many at once for fear that they'll dry up too fast.

[darkiceis]

Even worse when you love a sample size and when you purchase the full size it doesn't like the same product.

[guzelkiz]

I haven't had that happen yet but I have heard that a lot.

[greenporchlights]

Agreed. I'm quite taken with it after only trying it once. It gave my wimpy lashes length and volume. I actually wore it to a funeral this weekend, and it did not budge despite the crying. Sorry to get morbid, but I hope it illustrates that this stuff holds up like a champ.

[sweetxteeth]

hope you're okay..so sorry for your loss..

[darkiceis]

I'm sorry for your loss.

[guzelkiz]

I'm so sorry to hear about this, GPL.  It will get easier, I promise. *hugs*

That is a great thing about the mascara though.  I'm totally opening mine tomorrow!

[Mochapj]

That is a ringing endorsement in and of itself.  

Sorry for your loss 😞
