Re: Favorite NARS products?!?!
I only own two NARS blushes, Taos, and Mounia, but I'm in love with them, especially Mounia.

Wear the Dolce Vita lipgloss over a darker lipstick-one that is opaque (matte).I've been using it over Fire Down Below (blood red).

I love NARS Orgasm Blush! Love it love it love it. It also depends on how deep your skin tone is, but you don't have to use a lot to get it to show.

Re: Favorite NARS products?!?!
I'm on a Nars kick right now. I've had Star Sailor duo for years. It's awesome. But I didn't really investigate the line until recently!
I got the Deepthroat/striptease set for Christmas and deep throat is really a gorgeous blush.
My newest purchase and hg has to be the Orgasm Multiple. I use it on my brow bones, cheeks and lips.
My BFF sent me the Habenera Duo so it's my new HG for shadow.
I would have never tried that one but it's striking on! I was blown away.
I use Viva Las Vegas Lipstick a lot as well.
I'm buying a lot of Nars this week.. my list is growing after this thread!

My ultimate favorite item from NARS in The Multiple in Palm Beach. I'm a NW45 and I use it for a highlighter and it gives me this great glow.

Re: Favorite NARS products?!?!
I really need to get on it w/building my Nars collection. So far I only own Orgasm blush (which I use w/Mac's Dollymix, yum!) and Scarlet Empress l/s (don't wear as much as I should...) Geez, I am such a slacker...
*runs off to add more goodies to my wish/shopping list*

Re: Favorite NARS products?!?!
I'm also a NARS Virgin, I'm really thinking about trying a NARS blush (though they do cost $60 here) I'm about NC15 so I think orgasm (love the name lol) or desire.

You MUST buy one...lol...I got my very first NARS (Oasis) blush a few days ago and I am now trading my mac blushes in, I will never use another mac blush again - nars is superior in quality by far! I'll be going back for Sin and Lovejoy next

Re: Favorite NARS products?!?!
I got Nars Taj Mahal TODAY.wow, I only need to tap the brush in slightly to get some on the brush. It's highly pigmented. I was very surprised how pigmented it it. It's a nice warm colour. i was a bit shocked by the colour but once I put it on it looked great.
I find I need to apply it with a light hand because it may come out a little too shimmery for me. But I do like it. I'm gonna check out the other blushes that you ladies suggested. keep the recs coming

Re: Favorite NARS products?!?!
I love Nars! I find their products well pigmented, and the colour range wide.
I have an issue with lipglosses looking great in the tube, but going on clear. Nars lipglosses show up just fine on my pigmented lips, so I love them.
My favourite products are:
Glosses: Dirty Shame, Boogie Nights, Talitha, Chandernagor, Frisky Summer
Eyeshadow duos: Divine, Blade Runner, Belly Dance, Mediteranee, Persepolis
Eyeshadow singles: Santorini, Night Star, Lola Lola, Night Breed, Night Clubbing, Nepal, Ondine, Decameron (cream)
Multiples: Orgasm, Portofino, Malibu
Blush: Sertao (I use this on my eyes quite a bit as a wash) Torrid, Sin
Lip Lacquers: Hot Wired, Zou Zou, Medea
I also like the Balanced Foundation, the brushes are fab, and I really love their palettes. I have the warm palette in my desk at work for days when I don’t have time to do my makeup at home, and it is incredibly handy.
