The
colour selection, formulas and finishes of the blushes are fabulous! You have
everything from pretty baby pinks to bold reds and oranges. NARS has a blush to
suit all tastes and all skin tones. When it comes to the finishes, you have
matte, shimmery and glitter bombs! Most of which have quite a smooth texture
and strong pigment to boot. Oh and let us not forget the risqué names! I was
never one to use the words “Orgasm” or “Deep Throat” in casual conversation
before I met the magic of NARS.

So today
I thought I would share my NARS blush collection with you. I will have to split
the post into 2 parts though, me thinks all the swatches might get a bit OTT in
just the one post haha. Enjoy!
Cream Blushes:
Montenegro - Rich
Mahogany. Great colour for the winter, giving you that lovely dewy
flush you get from the cool outdoors
Cactus Flower - Delicate
shimmering poppy. Adore this bright colour with a subtle gold
shimmer :)
Penny Lane - Nude
pink. The first blush I ever hit pan on, this is my second one! I
wore it like everyday for months. Great for subtle cheeks or layering
underneath powder blushes to increase longevity
Powder Blushes:
Mounia – Cinnamon
Coral (discontinued). Stunning berry coral, shimmery blush. Love it for winter, just remember to apply
with a very light hand!
Exhibit A - Matte vivid red. Scary bright in the pan but gorgeous and natural on the
cheeks. Especially fab for those with yellow undertones.
Desire - Delicate bright pink. Another bright one… got to love that gorgeous Barbie pink!
Powder Blushes:
Lovejoy - Shimmering bronzed rose. Darker skin tones will adore this
rosy bronze
Madly - Seashell pink. A great one for you fairer
beauties
Albatross
- Sheer light golden sheen. My
go-to powder illuminator! I reach for this one most days when I’m using powder
blush.Please check out Part 2 of my NARS blushes as well :)
xoxo

I am SERIOUSLY in envy of your collection :D I love the look of Cactus Flower, it seems like it'd go nicely with a lipstick like MAC Impassioned. I also like the look of Penny Lane and Madly!

ReplyDeleteThat is one serious collection!
ReplyDeletePenny Lane and Madly are so pretty, I have to agree NARS is a brand I'm never disappointed with, not sure why i bother buying any other brands really. Your collection is amazing!

@Cendana K – Thanks lovely! NARS is just amazeballs, you’ll have to try get your hands on some ;)

@SilhouetteScreams – Cactus Flower is gorge, I’ll have to try out Impassioned :)

@beastandbeauty – Thanks sweets, I’m addicted!
@Sydney Sparkle – Yay another NARS fan :D I love Penny Lane, can be worn on its own or layer it under a powder blush!
I love all nars blushes!!! How can you afford all of them!? Ridiculously expensive here in Australia. I try and source mine from U.S bloggers during blog sales. Most of the time they have only used them once or twice.
ReplyDeleteHi Nice collection! Where do you buy them?
ReplyDelete@Lily - Yes I agree NARS is super pricey here in Aust. I usually purchase from kissandmakeupny.com :)
ReplyDelete@Anonymous - Mostly online from Sephora (mail forwarding) or kissandmakeupny.com
