Tweet Nars was once my one and only make up love. These days I still adore Nars, it’s a brilliant brand but my head is turned less easily, probably because there is so much lovely make up out there. For my birthday last year Mr C bought me this set from Nars called Tainted Love. It’s supposed to be LE but i’ve seen it on the site for while. The reason I bought this was solely for the Multiple, which {Read More}
Tweet Despite being a big fan of cream eyeshadows, I never truly invested in Nars ones because they always creased. They were brilliant as bases though, as they are quite thick and sticky in comparison to other formulas but worn on their own; they didn’t quite do it for me. I spotted one of their newest cream eyeshadow colours, Ponderosa on ASOS at a discounted price: If you keep an eye on ASOS you will find odd price fluctuations on {Read More}
Tweet One of my birthday presents from Mr C was Nars’ limited edition blush palette, named Danmari. I used to collect Nars make up, these days less so but as soon as I saw this palette I knew I had to have it. It comes in a lovely gift box (as a side note the Nars website sends products extremely well packaged, in cardboard boxes that have foam stuck to them on the inside). The palette then sits inside {Read More}
Tweet Did I ever tell you I collect Nars Multiples? Check out the tags to see my other swatches! And here is my home made Nars Multiple palette! Nars multiples are not without problems; they can be a bit oily, they used to give me spots, and they are pretty expensive at £29 each. I recently hauled G-Spot (that name!) from the counter, purely because it felt like a while since Nars released a decent multiple (not a weird highlighter {Read More}
Tweet Before I went away a few weeks ago, I paid a visit to the Nars counter. The second I saw their new trio (Limited Edition) Arabian Nights my heart went BOOM CHICKA BOOM BOOM. Because it had a few elements I really love when it comes to make up. Black – Check. Glitters – Check. Soft Textures – Check. Only when I got home did I think, huh – how do I use this wildly impractical palette?
Tweet I totally resisted the Nars Multiple Tints because when I originally swatched them I thought they looked a bit glossy. However I was hearing so many good things about them (especially Turks & Caicos, the bold orange) that I went back for another look (that, and the fact that I collect Nars!). These Multiple Tints are Limited Edition and there are (were) three shades; Turks & Caicos – Bright Orange Beverly Hills – Bright Red Cadaqués – Bright Fuchsia {Read More}
Tweet I think it’s been too long since I’ve featured Nars, so here it is – the new Nars Pure Matte Lipsticks. There are 6 colours in the range, each lipstick containing mango butter, vitamin e and acai oil to provide hydration and a highly pigment finish. So let’s take a look… Vesuvio (sounds like a car): A full bodied red Every lipstick collection needs a decent red and Vesuvio is it. Neither too pink or too blue, I found {Read More}
Tweet It’s a good job I don’t treat my make up like I treat my men, otherwise the current Mr Candy would’ve been replaced 10 times over by now. Go and grab some Pj’s and ice cream, cos I want to talk brand crushes with you (again)… As long as I’ve liked make up I’ve had brand crushes. On one hand I probably have something from most brands you can name, but I also go through phases of being utterly {Read More}
