The danger of this collection is that, while none of the items are incredible standouts, they are the sorts of things that make me think "Yeah, I'd probably use that all the time, so it's worth the money". On a completely different note, that picture of Tilda is a bit scary. Shoulders aren't built that way! It's like she's made of marble and someone buffed away her shoulder blades so that she sloped more. (Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of heavily photoshopped imagery. I spend a lot of time here: http://www.psdisasters.com/ )

Thanks for the photo shop disasters website. Interesting fails!

I'm thinking someone really dark, like Alek Wek's complexion. I feel she would rock that!

I was thinking the same thing, and thought some a really deep ebony color and thought about olive toned ladies...

I tried it at the counter yesterday and it was very pretty. Planning on picking it up next week. I'm NC50.

I was at one of my Nars counters this week and some the items were there. They'd been integrated into the regular displays, so even the sales associate hadn't realised they were out. I found the glitter factor on Reckless to be overwhelming. I really like the pale pink colour, but just so. damn. much. glittah. Valhalla was nice, although I feel like I have dupes for it. If it's permanent, I'll get around to buying it eventually. The real beauty was the St. Paul de Venice shadow duo. The peachy colour is incredibly beautiful and the brown is very soft and warm- I'd call it a teddy bear brown, if that makes any sense. I'm definitely going back for that. If you can swatch the duo in person, I recommend it. Like Dolomites, I don't think that photos adequately capture its beauty.

I'm getting the duo too. I presaled what I want at Nordstrom along with some permanent items. If you spend $125 you get a free eye palette. The palette has pastel and nude colors. Really nice shades for spring.

Good to know. I'm going to look into this GWP. I have a few items I want. Maybe I should get them from Nordies. Thanks.

Ohhh nice! I knew this was a nice nude collex.. Not what ppl traditionally think. But I knew it would be gorgeous.

Yes. The MUA said it's a promotion when you presale at the counter.

 

[Monsy]

Thanks for posting I want reckless

I'm bummed. No one is answering the phone at the Nars counter.

 

[msvluvsmac]

I talked to someone at the Nars counter because I wanted to add something to my presale items. The first MUA said it was an eye palette but the person I just talked to said it's a cheek palette which can also be used on the eyes. If I can remember correctly the colors are SIMILAR to the virtual domination cheek palette. This is my first time really buying anything from Nars besides a couple of lipsticks here and there. I pick up everything on Thursday.

The free cheek palette with $125 purchase is the foreplay cheek palette.

Oh thank you so much. I called again yesterday and no Nars rep was working. I already have that cheek palette. It is a good one. A really great GWP for once and I already have it. Figures. Thanks again.
