seriously, were not allowed, but were being forced to with certain brands, nars included. I dont know whats going on with their shipments, but they send us laguna by the truckload, and nothing else. half our glosses are mia completly. so our tester pannel is empty and there no product... which is annoying. Our VP is coming soon and i certainly hope this mess gets sorted out soon.
And could they pick a worse material for the gondola?! i mean its just begging to eat up as much powder as humanly possible. And at least 3 times a day i find that some bratty kid has finger painted everywhere with the shadows or pencils.
oh my... i need to stop.

BAHAA. I think you should take everything off the gondola and just put leave Laguna.
p.s I hate small children whose parents don't watch them. I spend half my time in retail amusing them so they don't tear the store apart.

heres a better picture. I wouldnt say youneed both. I would say Rajasthan is the one to get of the duos. I like it for a smokey eye or for liner. The other one with the lighter color i dont think I will use as much. I reviews them in a vid on youtube, and tried to show how chalky Daphne is.

How long is it from the time the product arrives in the store to when it's put out on the floor at Sephora? I have a GC that I've been saving for this collection.

it depends on the company.
theres no set amount of time.
sometimes it goes out within a few days, sometimes it sits aroynd forever. Generally, we put things out as soon as we have the gondola update, meaning asa we have a spot to put it in. Even if we just have the testers.
Like today, i just did a stila update products were recieved thursday. Gondola was recieved today. Today or tomorrow im doing an complete update on too faced. New products were recieved thursday, new gondola peices were recieved today...
Generally its very quick, but nars is taking there sweet sweet time.

I just picked up Rajasthan from Murale, I seriously love this duo, both sides are so pigmented and rich! I will go back at a later date to get Coconut Groove too.

The Fall Collection is now available at Selfridges. I tried Rajastan and Tzarine, and don't know if I should get both. I think I will also get the soft touch pencil in Palladium, since it's such a wonderful, turquoise shade. I'm also contemplating to get Daphne since it would complement my green eyes quite well, but I really don't know if that alone is enough to justify a purchase. I'm a sucker for that promo pic. Her eyes look like the wings of the butterfly!

WE PUT OUR UPDATE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
9 boxes and 3 hours later and it looks GOREGOUS!!!! we got a complete gondola update. New focus units, new graphic panels, new tester panels, new merchandisers, new EVERYTHING!!!!
Best part? We carry between 25-50% MORE nars now!!!
Problem? they havent sent us most of the new products.
And we're missing the tester pannel for the bronzers.
Typical.

Coconut Groove is stunning, its a near black brown shade. And Rajasthan duo, if you were to pick between the two. Both sides look really pretty on darker girls, and the lipgloss....omg

Yes, the summer collection left a lot to be desired, which is why I didnt get anything/
I have Mangrove e/s, Coconut Grove e/s, Daphne e/s (which is kind of blotchy to me) and Rajasthan duo (I love),

^I definitely agree, Daphne was really patchy when applied. Too bad because it looked great in the pan.
But WOW, the Rajasthan duo is gorrrrrgeous. The SA at my Nordies counter told me they were sold out of it, but then she took another look and found the last one! Hurrah!! The blackened blue-green is beautiful, but I'm also really digging the gold-y taupe side as well.
