THAT NARS Palette.

I know. I know. I shouldn't have bought it. BUT IT'S JUST SO PRETTY. When it sold out everywhere, I accepted that it wasn't meant to be. But then I went into Space NK in Bournemouth yesterday, about to happily leave with nothing more than a new Laguna bronzer (more on that another day) and I mentioned that I liked it and she told me they had a few left just not on display. So clearly it was fate...

It's pretty good value for money really. Six high quality shadows, the eye primer and a brush for £40.50. And the shadows really are high quality, buttery and smooth, long lasting and incredibly well pigmented. Metallic Rose Mist looks beautiful swatched across the lid, or used as a highlighter on the inner eyes or browbone. Matte Grey Brown is light enough to wear on the lid during the day, but dark enough to blend into the crease. Gold Confection is pretty much just a slightly darker version of Metallic Rose Mist, and is my favourite for a base colour! Bitter Chocolate Infused with Gold is just beyond beautiful, and I like to smudge it into the crease of my eyes lightly in the day! Deep Taupe Brown infused with Gold is lovely too, in the palette it doesn't look particularly sparkly, but it has just a hint of shimmer! The last shade is  Black with Gold Pearl, and it's probably the only shadow I won't use on a daily basis, but it's a gorgeous nighttime shade for a smoky eye, it's a little like my MAC Gilt By Association, but with a little less shimmer.

Either way, this is a great little palette, PERFECT for carrying around in your handbag! I regret nothing!

 The Eye Shader Brush is super soft and great for applying a full sweep of colour across your lid. And the primer is great, these shadows are pretty long wearing anyway, but this just makes it stay freshly-applied looking all day.
