Here it is my friends!
NARS Albatross: (left swatch on my hand)
Amazing highlight! I absolutely adore this stuff. It is a gorgeous shimmery ivory gold highlight. The shimmer is very fine so there are no chunky glittery bits, just a gorgeous glow! When applied it seems to just blend into the skin; it won’t leave you looking like you just applied highlight. It is great for a brow highlight, cheeks, collar bones etc. Great stuff!

This colour is beautiful! It is a velvety purple with gold shimmer in it. The shimmer, like in the Albatross, is finely milled so it isn’t like “WOW THAT’S GLITTERY” ... it’s more of a “catch your eye in the sunlight” gorgeousness! It is highly pigmented and a little tricky to work with; I don’t recommend this as your first purple shadow if you haven’t played around with colour before. It takes a little work to get it right! Don’t be afraid of it though, you just have to practice! I also wouldn’t use this colour with a bunch of colours... It is gorgeous on its own with a highlight. It is a little on the pricey side, but hey, it’s NARS and the payoff is incredible AND there is a ton in the pan so you will be able to use it looooooooong time!
NARS Little Darling Lipstick: (right swatch on my hand)
I love a nude mouth and have been on the search for a nude lipstick that looked GOOD and didn’t make me look like I just put foundation on my lips. This is it! The colour is a nude beige and it’s buttery and beautiful! It is sheer enough to allow some of your natural lip colour through but is easily darkened up a bit by applying a second coat! I also like to put ORGASM lip gloss on over top!

Love at first sight... it is just as incredible as the blush! Pinky, peachy, gold! I love it! It is glossy but not sticky. It is dreamy :) Every girl needs to go buy one now! I find because of the mix of pinks and golds and peaches it works well with a variety of skin tones. Love love love!
