I agree. Love that one and Transeurope Express with Easy Lover gloss on top.

WOCs what are your thoughts on the Nars reflecting powder?

So far I doesnt look good on any blogger (cafe makeup, beautylish etc) Ive seen so far. I havent seen any pics on a WOC either, any links? From what Im seeing, doesnt seem worth it at all.

I am wondering about its benefits as well. Generally, white powders although translucent tend to make my foundation look gray in photos. So I tend to start away from them. I don't look ashen or anything, my skin will just lack warmth. I don't find lighter WOC having that problem, so across the board, I think they work for some WOC but not all. I think you should go to a nars counter and see if they can make you sample of the powder so you can test it out at home and see how it looks in photos, with the flash on.

Luster, Lusteer, Luster. Go get it NOW!!!! I'm a NC50 and this is the absolute BEST highlighting color for me. It's a golden-peach color and gives the best glow. The glow looks very natural. I love it. I bought Albatross before I bought Luster- Lust looks soooo much better.

I also like Exhibit A- looks banging paired with MAC Ruby Woo lipstick.

I have Taj Mahal- it's just meh on me. A little too glittery (not shimmery) and orange.

NARS' pencil sharpener is THE BEST sharpener out there. I used to have issues with points breaking inside other sharpeners. NARS' cuts through every pencil from 99 cents to 20 something dollars like butter!

Yes, Luster is great! BTW, I'm MUFE #173.

From what I understood the new powders were translucent clear powders similar to the Mally product. I too tend to stay away from white tranculent powders though MAC prep & prime compact works great to me.

Gina or Gilda? Which would you ladies choose... I'm leaning towards Gilda

Well yes, you are right but being that they are cousins, which one would be your favorite? *trying to avoid the enabling to buy both*

I recently purchased my first NARS blush,Taj Mahal and wore it on Saturday. I got so many complements on it. I have to say it is soooo worth the price and something that a WOC should have in her kit.

sounds like a good enough reason to me

 

[allthingsglam]

My favorite are the yachiyo brush blonde venus lipstick exhibit a blush liberte blush luster blush chesla girl lip laquer and my nars yachiyo lip brush.does anymore find that luster is the tone down version of tai mahal which I didn't like to shimmery but luster is love

 

[allthingsglam]

Love Orgasm. I also purchased Taj Mahal but for some reason it doesn't look right on my skintone. :-(

Me either it looks beautiful on others I find that luster IMO is a toned down version of taj mahal

 

[bvenice1920]

Am I the only one who does not own Taj Mahal? I must get it!

I guess I will order it or try to find one in a blog sale. If I can find that I will be super happy.

Finally hitting the pan on Luster which I haven't had for more than a year and a half. This is a biggie for me as I have never used up an entire blush, and I know this one will be gone within the next six months. I believe this has to be my favorite blush of all time. It's perfect with everything for me. Subtle, glowy, and beautiful. Sigh.

Are you just using Luster as a blush? I bought Luster and Lovejoy this year and don't reach for either of them. I think it's because I tend to go for cool tone lips but I have these warm blushes.

 

[aradhana]

Nope. I don't have it. Part of it is b/c I always get it mixed up with Exhibit A which people also say all WOC must own it.

I get kinda snotty when you tell me I have to wear something b/c I'm brown. LOL

i know....but you MUST

actually though i have and love taj mahal, i think luster and deep throat are more *must* for me, in terms of nars blushes....esp deep throat.
