Tweet I have always loved Nars, so I just had to show you the Fall/Autumn collection for 2010. The collection is a collaboration between Nars & Daphne Guinness, launched on August 1st. To create this look: A coat of Smudge-Proof Eyeshadow Base, followed by a wash of Daphne Single Eyeshadow. Using the Wide Contour Brush, build color and intensity along the outer eye. For brightness in the inner eye, apply Mangrove Single Eyeshadow and lightly lined the top and bottom {Read More}
Tweet I’ve swatched Bloodwork by Nars a few times because its so unique. Its a shiny, almost vinyl finish deep red: My my my, you do have to be careful with this one because its so pigmented, so glossy and so red. But its unique and will give you such an amazing hot red lip! What do you think of bloodwork?
Tweet I bought Moon Fleet from Nars at Christmas – because could there be a more Christmassy shade? I think not! This is a clear to slightly yellow toned gloss with gold glitter: Its super glittery and works well on lots of other base colours. I like! What do you think of Moon Fleet?
Tweet This lip gloss is Boogie Nights from Nars. Its a shimmer deep purple that looks quite dark in the tube: Actually, I’ve fallen in love with it all over again. It looks rather flattering on my lips: Remember Boogie Nights the film?
Tweet The Orgasm collection from Nars now includes a highlighter creme, a blusher, another blusher, a nail polish and so on. Some people say its overrated. I personally like it a lot – I do think its a beautiful mix of peach, pink infused with gold. This is the lip gloss: On the lips – its sheer but rather pretty: Like this gloss? Or do you think its dull?
Tweet I found this Nars Lip Stain Gloss is still on sale but I found this pretty one in my collection the other day. This Lip Stain is called Rage. It looks rather scary in the tube but its the least scary shade in the collection: Nars Says about the product: Longwearing matte lip color in a revolutionary non-drying formula. The silicone-based, non-transfer formula glides on smoothly to achieve perfect looking lips for hours. Enriched with natural moisturizing properties, lips {Read More}
Tweet Barbarella, a great name for a lipstick, is Nars’ Perfect Peach in the Sheer Formula. For this reason, I can wear this colour quite comfortably, more so that the Semi-Matte range or the Matte, which is significantly more drying. I forget how sheer this actually is, because I’m so used to Nars being madly pigmented. Two light coats on the lips equals: Not as unique as in the tube but nevertheless a pretty wearable colour. What do you think?
Tweet Lips for today is this golden bronze lipstick, called Hot Voodoo: I bought this cos it looked so gorgeous on the SA who was wearing it. I have to say its a bit full on for me day to day but its very unusual, bronzy-goddessy: I’ve always had a problem with the texture of Nars Lipsticks – they are a tad dry on me. Nevertheless, some of their shades are real knockouts. What do you think?
