Counterfeit Nars - Post your possible counterfeit items here
Please pay attention if you wanna purchase Nars blush or duo e/s from bidding website. I found many fake NARS items on taobao.com in China, I guess that we mighty buy the fake one from ebay soon.
I heard someone said it is very easy to buy fake NARS items in the China market. The fake blush in Orgasm is RMB36(approx. USD1.09)

Re: Counterfeit NARS items
Thanks for the heads up.
I'll be sure to get all of my NARS from narscosmetics.com. I'm waiting for my pro discount to go through anyway and that's where I have to use it.

Some features of the fake blush:
- unusual price, under USD5 or lower.
- incorrect/unknown shade number, e.g. 410, 403
- smell a scent from fake one
- regular plastic box
I asked my husband to buy a fake blush, I will post pics and comments here if I get it.

Re: Counterfeit NARS items
What gives these fakes away is that they have the logo embossed on the actual blush ... I've never seen that.

Re: Counterfeit NARS items
I've been tempted before to buy makeup from eBay, but with every new scam, that likelihood goes further and further down. What really makes me sad is that there are some honest people on eBay that are being hurt by people avoiding all actions of those products.
Thanks for the heads up. While it saddens me to see another brand I like being scammed, at least I know about it now.

NO nars products are stamped like that with NARS on the powder!

Re: Counterfeit NARS items

The cover of fake NARS was tight that I couldn't open it easily. The plastic sheet with NARS logo, but it looked like cut and trimmed by hand.

If you look frames, you will find the difference between them. The yellow part of left frame are light reflection from my room lights.

Fake one's pot thickness is thicker than real one.
I will publish other photo soon and keep some features of fake NARS blush for identifying.
Just feel free to PM or e-mail to me if you need to confirm NARS blushes.
