You've got a sample of the aqua gel luminous oil-free moisturizer! I'm super interested in that one. If you try it, please let me know what you think about it. :)
Can you give a list of what the samples are, please? They might be all part of the new skincare line.

Thanks! I'm pretty sure most of those are new products. I'm glad to see they finally added an exfoliator to their line.

After a little googling, I found this:


Luminous Moisture Cream, Aqua Gel Luminous Oil-Free Moisturizer, Total Replenishing Eye Cream, Aqua Gel Luminous Mask and Optimal Brightening Concentrate from the NarsSkin collection




Quote: A visionary in the world of makeup artistry and photography, François Nars routinely uses light as a tool to transform the complexion. “The best skin is skin that can reflect light,” Nars says.
Now Nars captures the power of light in NarsSkin, a unique anti-aging collection that helps skin reflect light as never before. When applied on newly smooth, bright skin, makeup lasts longer and simply glows.
Found in every NarsSkin product is a unique Light Reflecting Complex using pure ingredients that work in synergy to transform the skin and boost its translucency. Light-Active Micro-Prisms are combined with algae extract and Polynesian seawater to boost clarity and infuse skin with moisture and minerals. Combined with anti-aging, cellular metabolism-boosting ingredients and potent antioxidants, skin is revived and luminous.

I saw this collection in Nordstrom yesterday but didn't have time to swatch. It is gorgeous. My "wishlist":

Autumn Leaves l/s
Tribalist l/g
Undress Me Multiple
Outlaw blush

I really don't think the multiple looks anything like it's sister in Copacabana.

awesome! Can't wait to hear your thoughts. My experience with Nars skincare is limited though I used to use their mud mask (which I liked but didn't love). I also like his primer, I had a sample which I ran out of. I loved it and need to re-purchase

Re Skincare- I've tried a few of their products and they are really nice, but generally very, very expensive- way more than I would think based on the prices of their cosmetics. I tried their gel face mask and it is wonderful- moisturising and refreshing!!

I went to Nordstrom to check out/buy some fall Nars items and couldn't find anything. They did have the blush palette though. I went at 8:00 when the store opened and they were doing renovations so about 5 lines were sharing counter space and everything was smushed together. The SA helping me didn't know the line. I suspect it was there but she didn't know where. I was fine with it as I bought quite a bit and have a lot to play with as it is. I would have liked to have played with the products though. I'm still interested in Autumn Leaves lipstick, Outlaw blush as I used to own this once upon a time, more lip stick pencil, and maybe Storm if I can't find a polish dupe in my collection.

Oh boy... I hauled. Ironically, I didn't end up getting Rouge Tribal, although I may go back for it. Something about that teeny tiny applicator just doesn't work for me. I'll have a full review up on my blog over the weekend, but I bought:

High Society
Vent Glace
Autumn Leaves
Outlaw

I had no problem at all with the pigmentation and texture of Outlaw. The colour payoff wasn't immediately as bright as it looks in the pan, but that's a good thing- it lets you build the shade up. My MUA applied it to me using that wonderful Yachiyo (sp?) brush and even with one and a half passes, had to blend it out a little because it was a bit too bold on my somewhat tanned but still fair skin.

Here are a couple of pictures of me wearing practically everything (Vent Glace and High Society on eyes, Undress me and Outlaw on cheeks, Autumn Leaves on lips)






Ooh... Just noticed the new & improved photo upload mechanism...

You look very elegant, katred!

I saw the collection today. I thought Outlaw looked stunning! Katred, is Outlaw easy to wear? It's not too dark? I'm wondering if I can pull it off. Does anyone know if it's permanent? TIA!

Thank you! It is bright, but it can be applied lightly or with a soft, fluffy brush and it would be fine for even very light complexions. According to my MUA, it is becoming part of the permanent line. I believe only the trio and the nail polish are limited.
