Nars x Man Ray Holiday 2017

[Icecaramellatte]

I'm back and forth every day on that palette. On one hand it looks similar to shades in glass tears and other palettes, on the other hand, that burgundy!

I wore a few shades from the Glass Tears palette last night and really liked it. I used the gold on the lid, the black to set my eye pencil on upper lid, the reddish brownish shade on crease and inner crease (that 30's kind of makeup), and the light beige on browbone. I also used a activist (dark brown) from the tartelette in bloom palette to help deepen the inner crease shadow. i was worried the beige shade would be too dark but it was perfect for this look - really made my lashes stand out.

Have you done other looks with this palette?
I haven't seen many looks online...it seems a lot of people do swatch/review videos and posts, but fewer are doing actual looks...i enjoy seeing what people come up with as much as i appreciate seeing what things swatch like!!!

I don't know why I'm going blank on this question but I did do another look soon after the first. I kind of remember it was an easy, out the door look. I used the Rosy Bronze shade on the lid. I don't really recall what else. Maybe the lightest shade on the brow bone. I probably used one of my favorite transition shades and probably a dark brown in outer v. I haven't used it since. I've wanted to but I wanted to try my other stuff. Those greens and golds are calling me though.

I watched this video yesterday. It was a good one. Loved the Tom Ford look she did too.

I was waiting for n event at Nordstrom to buy the other lip glosses. Well none in stock nor in their system. I eyed the face palette again. The blush and highlighter looked so good but I resisted. Well, I check online and no glosses but the face palette was listed reduced as were many of Nars items. I search online for the glosses and find them a few places but decide to try Macy's as I've been having good luck lately. They had the glosses and face palette reduced. I think they are having their friends and family event but is giving the discount to everyone. It says use code friends and lists the reduced price on all the items. A little bit off, I figured why not. So if you are still considering some items, try Macy's. I don't know how long the code will be in effect.

Strange how Nordies didn't do the price matching with Glass Tears

I keep doing this too. The only reason I haven't purchased it is that the bronzer is basically my skin colour. not sure what i would do with that. wear it as a face powder? but it's probably subtly sparkly or something and will turn me into a glowing snowball...

I have that Tom Ford palette. I rarely wear the blue shade. This video convinced me. I'm going to try that look or maybe a toned down version of it anyway.

Thanks for asking. I'm excited too.
My last Sephora sale order was for her. Placed it on Nov 15th and it hasn't shipped yet, so I'm getting a little peeved about it. I have to turn the gifts in by Dec 11th, so I might just cancel the Sephora order and go through Ulta instead. I think I can get almost everything (NARS e/s base, makeup remover, eyeliner, lipstick set, Shiseido cotton) from Ulta except for the Marc Jacobs lip gloss set and the eyeshadows. If I have to order from Ulta, I'll probably just go with the Lorac holiday lip gloss set and maybe the Morphe Jaclyn Hill palette to replace those items?
We hand over the items to the charity, then they give the girl's parents/caregivers the gifts with wrapping materials so they can gift them to her on Christmas.
I bought the large snowman bushel basket from Michaels to put everything in. I also already have a Chanel eye blending brush, a Zoeva shadow brush to lay down color, a Ted Baker makeup bag, nail polish remover, nail polish, a Real Techniques large holiday brush set, the NARS e/s palette, shower gel, lotion, ABH glow kit, and a CVS gift card.
I think that covers most needs. Hopefully she has fun playing with everything.

That's right, I quote myself.

I finally received the Sephora order, so I turned in the gifts at work today for processing. Coworkers were dying. I made sure they locked that stuff up in a secure location!

I forgot to mention that I sent my darling husband to pick up the CVS gift card. In all of the city....after Thanksgiving....my husband managed to find zero holiday themed gift cards, so he got one that says "Celebrate Your Day." I was teasing him, so now he keeps asking about the "Happy Bar Mitzvah from your Favorite Uncle" gift card.
