That's what I was going to say, but I hate the texture of those though. Don't spank me.

i wish they would've used lime green sparkles in the lipglasses instead of that shade of green, how awesome would that have been? i'm picking up the purple one definatly! i might end up passing on the MES, but no final decision yet

^^Those are actually gold sparkles in that dazzleglass. Erine said the gold + black combo gives the dazzleglass look that green look. But, ITA...lime green sparkles in a black dazzleglass would be HAWT!!!

My initial thoughts (copy pasted from my blog)

These are everything I wanted the NARS night series range to be!

These shadows look pretty chunky in the pan but they're buttery smooth to the touch. When I swatched them on my skin I'll be honest and say I didn't get a heap of colour payoff from the black, but tonnes of the coloured shimmer. But I think over a sticky base like UDPP, TFSI, MAC paintpots etc on my eye it will be a different story. I will report back once I've used them properly! You can see how much product was on my fingers after I swatched them dry- a heap.

Used wet is where these shadows really shine. I used fix+ and they are smooth, creamy and oh so pigmented I almost squealed with excitement! I think the swatches say it all really! I think that used wet, these will all make amazing liners.

I think Cinderfella is probably the least pigmented from the lot, and Gilt by Association sometimes can lose that black base compared to the others since it's so heavily loaded with shimmer. Not a bad thing, just an observation.

So I'm impressed! I'm glad MAC decided to make these all singles and not split the pans like they usually do with mineralize eye shadows.

Swatches- dry with no base. In real life it didn't look quite this chalky.

Swatches- foiled with MAC fix+ (wooooow!)

sorry for the blurry shot but it picks up the shimmer really well

OMG I have not been this excited about a makeup product in such a long time. I can't wait to get my hands on these. They are going to be perfect for fall!
