Brand Focus: NARS

Like I assume most people reading this do, I adore NARS.  Their products are high quality, beautiful and talked about non-stop.  I've got a few (grubby) bits and pieces, but I'm always looking to add more to my little collection!

Aside from the dirt-magnet ability, the packaging is beautiful and just feels luxurious.  All of the palettes and pans have a decent sized mirror in the lid and they're all a reasonable size.

Foundation

I've got two NARS foundations, Sheer Matte and All Day Luminous Weightless.  I bought Sheer Matte first, after reading so many good reviews.  It's relatively heavy coverage and takes a while to blend, but it's medium coverage looks lovely on the skin.  The winner for me is All Day Luminous - I reviewed it here not long ago, but long story short it's good.

Cheeks

My first NARS purchase was the blusher in Desire.  It's super bright, but with a fluffy brush and a light hand you can swipe a healthy flush over your cheeks - my very old review is here.  The star of the cheek show is the One Night Stand palette (review here).  It's a beautiful palette with a highlighter, a bronzer and four blushers - perfect for every occassion.  This always gets popped into my make up bag for holidays, trips home or just a night away.

Eyes

The NARSissist eye shadow palette was a present from Rob last year.  It's a beautiful palette of 15 shadows.  There's a mixture of matte, glitter and shimmer shades ranging from a true black, to bronzes and purpley-blues to a shimmery highlight.  Everything you could wish for in a beautiful little palette.

I don't have any lip products from NARS which I'm desperate to change - how gorgeous are the Velvet Matte lip pencils?! I also have my beady eye on the Creamy Concealer.  Do you have anything from NARS? I'd love to hear your recommendations.
