Nars Eyeshadow Duo in Kalahari

Hi beauties,

I hope you're all having a fab Sunday!

Today's blog post is on this little beauty - Nars Eyeshadow Duo in Kalahari (shop here). I got a voucher for Space NK for my birthday so went to have a look round last week... ahh too much I want in that shop!

I have a few Nars products, but none of their eyeshadows and this one really caught my eye. Both shimmery, warm-toned colours - I thought these would be perfect for this time of year. Very autumnal!

At £25, I think this is fairly reasonable price for a high-end product. After all, you are getting two shadows. The packaging is lovely as always and I like that you get a mini mirror inside the lid which is useful for touch ups on the go.

The left shade is a beautiful gold tone and the right shade more of a bronzy shade with a hint of purple. As I'm fair skinned I like to add a light lid colour to this combination so that it's not too dark/heavy.

I love this product and would definitely look at investing in more of these lovely duos.

Can you recommend any fave Nars eyeshadows?

Nars Sheer Glow Foundation - My thoughts

Hi beauties,

Now I promise to write about something other than foundation for my next post, but I've been naughty and made another purchase - Nars Sheer Glow Foundation - a firm favourite of many beauty bloggers!

I purchased this from my local Space NK as I wanted to get matched. At £30.50 a bottle I didn't want to risk buying the wrong shade! She matched me with the shade Mont Blanc - I normally go for the lightest shade, but this was a tad too fair (this never happens!). In this respect I'm really impressed with their colour range and it's great to find a brand that caters well for us more pale gals!

It says it suits Normal to Dry skin, which I would agree with. It gives a lovely brightness to your complexion, and I really love the coverage.

Now the only downside is that this product is of the 'precariously pour from the bottle without getting it on your clothes or cream carpet type' which is slightly annoying! But fear not, you can buy a pump as an extra. Although this does mean you can't use the lid which isn't so great for carrying around and I don't know if this has an effect on the product with it being slightly exposed to the air. Let me know if you use a pump on yours?

I will definitely be purchasing a range of these foundations to go in my kit, as they'll be lovely to use on brides.
