NARS Haul

Hello again my pretties :)

Today's post is dedicated to Cami from Cami Loves Kiwi. This is mostly because she MADE me buy the FACE Atelier Foundation and Guerlain G Blush Serie Noire so now I'm returning the favour :)

*subliminal message ... Cami! Run out and buy it now! ... end of message*

Oh and for those of you that don't already follow Cami make sure you do. She's awesome :)

Moving on ...

Did I happen to mention that I love the SpaceNK Ndulge scheme? It totally makes me go buy stuff I can't afford... But any way...

The first thing I picked up was NARS Dolce Vita Lipstick, my first NARS lipstick :)


The packaging is the same rubbery stuff of normal NARS products. The lipstick is a sheer dusty rose, the swatch below is two swipes :)


The lipstick has a lovely sheen to it and is a very wearable colour.

Next up we have the Tainted Love Set. The set is limited edition and the ladies at my SpaceNK said that the stock that each store had received is the only stock they were getting and they'd literally only been sent four sets! :s If your store runs out, fear not! It's available on both the SpaceNK and NARS websites. The set is £44 but has a value of £60.

Shiny :)

Inside the shiny box is a velvet covered sponge pad housing three full sized products.


First up we have NARS Schiap polish, my first NARS polish.


This is a shocking pink creme polish! Like bright, bright pink lol! The brush is long and thin but it's well made. This polish is part of the permanent line and retails for £13.50 ordinarily.


Next up we have NARS Angelika Lipgloss. This gloss is also part of the permanent line and ordinarily retails for £17.50.



The gloss is a cotton candy pink with gold particles.

Lastly we have NARS Angelika Multiple. This product isn't available individually and Multiples usually retail for £29. Multiples are multi-functioning creme colour sticks that can be used on the eyes, cheeks and lips.


LEFT - Swatched straight from the tube
RIGHT - Swatched and then blended, you can just about make out the sparkles

And that's all folks :) Hope the swatches were of help :)

  4. Ooh! I love the colors in that set. But I can't stand NARS lipglosses. I wish the blush stick was available individually. It looks lovely unlike some of the other frostier icky multiple sticks!

  13. @Lillian Funny Face: It's such a pain when they do that! Some times I wonder if it's worthwhile buying the set and then selling/swapping away the items I don't want!
