Last week I visited NARS and picked up a few things:
Kohliner:
I have very watery eyes, especially in the summer. Its mainly because of my hayfever, its really annoying because sometimes it can get very bad, that I can’t wear any eye makeup at all. This Kohliner is made just for that. Its a lovely creamy texture, really soft and lovely when it is applied on the waterline. Its perfect for smudging or blending, for the sexy smokey eye and it does not run and that is another problem I have. Normally all eyeliners I get for my waterline, tend to run or just dissapear, this one is the best so far!
It is extremely concentrated. I bought in Minorque, a lovely jet black. I like the fact you do not need to sharpen, it has a twist up retractable feature.
Radiant Creamy Concealer:
This is a lovely concealer, it is extremely creamy and sits great under eyes, without creasing and sitting in lines (make sure to powder under the eyes though). It is radiant but it can be still worn on blemishes, without highlighting it, showing the world where you have tried to cover it. This can be worn either under or over foundation and have I worn it on its own.
I love how NARS have a large range of colours and the concealers come yellow-toned which is perfect for my skin tone.
When I apply this concealer, I do not apply directly to my face. I apply to the back of my hand, let the product warm up and dot into my face using MAC 252 brush.
It is very long lasting and I usually pair this with my NARS Sheer Glow Foundation.
I have bought the concealer in Medium 2 – Ginger. I wear my NARS Sheer Glow Foundation in Medium 3 – Stromboli.
Eyeliner Stylo:
I have read reviews on this and it did not recieve many stars. I love this!! My eyeliner is “on fleek” when I use this. Remember I have watery, itchy eyes in the summer. I rub my eyes, this stays on. Its great. I haven’t used it much, so I’m not sure how long it lasts before the product finishes, or dries up. We shall see. The black is really black though!
Contour Blush:
My most favourite product right now!!! Such a perfect colour for me! I’m not a huge fan on creamy contours, its just too messy for me. I love this powder consistency, a little goes a long way, it is very pigmented. I apply the darker shade to just my cheeks and the lighter shade to illuminate the highpoints of my face.
I have worn this on its own and it gives my face a lovely finish, making me look healthy and natural. I have worn both shades as eyeshadow, I love it.
This contour blush is in Paloma.
