If i could only choose one brand to buy, it would be Nars, hands down.
The quality of their products is of the upmost highest and i see Nars as a 'luxury' brand that i only buy in small amounts.
Ive dabbled in a few different Nars products and thaught they were all fab, but the real king (...or queen if you prefer...) of Nars products are their blushes!
I remember buying my first Nars blush a while back and cringing as i handed over my cash to the assistant, my dad behind me was shaking his head at the fact of buying a blush close to the £20 mark (...hes a man, he dosnt understand, right? ) .
Ever since then ive been determined to collect the colours i love, even if i do go bankrupt in the process haha.
Left picture:
Gina - Matte deep peach.
Desire - Matte neon blue toned pink.
Torrid - Red toned coral shot through with fine gold glitter.
Right piture:
Cactus Flower - Bright poppy red with gold flecks, cream blush.
Zen - Matte beige brown with slight pink undertone.
Orgasm - Peachy pink with gold sheen.
Albatross - White gold sheen.
Left to right: Albatross, Cactus flower, Matahari, Desire, Torrid, Gina, Orgasm, Zen.
I think of it as an investment, One Nars blush will probably last you forever.
What i love -
The pigmentation is incredable! One dab of a brush is enough. Cactus flower and Desire actually are still visable on my arm where i swatched them despite all the scrubbing to remove them!They dont stain your face though!
They apply like a dream and blend effortlessly.
Last years.
AMAZING colour range.
& Finally -
The packaging...
I cant rave enough about Nars packaging. Its sleek, Compact and durable. Some people complain about their compacts going sticky as they are made from a rubbery material, but i havnt had any issues with any of mine and some of them have been bashing around in my bag for a while.
The size is perfect, Not too small or too big and the name of each blush is named clearly on the back. I only wish there was a Nars counter closer to where i live, as the nearest one for me to get to is London and i only go there a couple of times a year...Suppose that could be a good thing though really as i would probably be in there right now spending all my money if there was a Nars near me haha.
(Sorry for the very long rave about Nars blushes, but i just needed to air my love for these beauties!)
What do you think of Nars blushes? or just their products in general?
I have 2 Nars blushes,deepthroat and pennylane and i really love them. The packaging is gorgous and is what initially drew me in. Im almost sure there is a nars counter in leeds in harvey nics..could be wrong as iv never actually seen it but im almost certain x
ReplyDeleteI have the Nars- Laguna,Orgasm Duo and I love them. I love the look of Albatross, can I ask how you use it? :-)
ReplyDeleteNever mind dads, my mum would shake her head. She doesn't understand what the big fuss is about buying quality makeup, she's into natural beauty. :P
ReplyDeleteWhich one is your favourite? I don't own any Nars products, but I've been seriously considering investing in "Orgasm" this pay day - it's been so raved about! x
ReplyDeleteI only have Orgasm but I really love it. I swatch the blushes every time I go into Sephora and it's quite obvious that they are amazing quality. Next I want Taj Mahal and Madly :) Cactus Flower is gorgeous too!
ReplyDeleteAhh I've never tried Nars and i'm looking for a good concealer so maybe i shall give it a whirl! I'm not sure about blush I'm so pale I'm scared I'll look too done up :( xx
ReplyDeleteWow that is quite a collection you have there :) I'm rather jealous !!
ReplyDeleteI definitely need to get on the nars bandwagon I'm totally missing out !
