Re: Fav MATTE NARS blushes for NW45?
you can find passion blush at beautyandmain.com All of their stores are discontinuing nars products and they are buy one get one free. I just recently purchased it. They have five stores and you just have to call each store until you find what you are looking for.
I am a NW45/47 and the color does not show up on me. I would have returned it but all sales are final.

Re: Fav MATTE NARS blushes for NW45?
I just ordered 4 blushes, including my first cream blushes, my sister is going to pick them up later this week and mail them to me, I'm so excited
I spoke with Ashley at Havard Square who was great, she even told me to call another store that would have a better selection but since they didn't answer I called her back, I may call the other store still since I want Passion tho

I tried Exhibit A yesterday, it was gorgeous! I've been using Orgasm for so long, I didn't stop to enjoy all the other wonderful shades NARS has to offer.

Their prices are the same as Nars and shipping is $9.00. They have eyeshadows but I did not buy any.

Thanks I broke down and made 2 orders yesterday
Oh yeah there's 1 passion left at the Andover store but since they didn't have anything I wanted I didn't order it.
I got Cassandre, Ninotchka, Montenegro and Silvana to try.

Re: Fav MATTE NARS blushes for NW45?
Bump! Can someone list out all of the current Nars blushes that are matte? It seems like every one that I want to buy has shimmer...
