I just bought Taj Mahal, but have not worn it yet. Could anybody give me an idea of what type of eyeshadows and lip colors would go with it? Thanks

Isn't it gorgeous? I actually love it more than Taj Mahal now.

It really goes with anything, esp. bronzes, corals, reds, anything really. I don't worry too much about matching or cordinating my blush with my eyes and lips, I just look for balance. So if you are doing something bold with the lips and eyes, I would leave Taj alone for that day. Hope that helped.

Hey, thank you for the suggestion! CVS was having a buy one Milani get one free sale and I picked Sunset Shores up, it's really a beautiful glowy color! I was kinda iffy about it because it's, well, orange, but the color is very flattering on my NC45 skin.

I don't know how it compares to Taj Mahal, but I don't like reaaaaally strong cheeks anyway so the Milani does fine.

Out of all the NARS blushes, the ones I want the most are Lovejoy and Sertao. I remember really liking Lovejoy when I tried it on at a store, but have never tried Sertao and would love to see it on someone else.

ETA: well, a Specktra.net search did wonders! now I want Sertao even more, wah.

You know what? I get a suprisingly nice glow from Torrid too! Not a lot of color but it adds a certain umph! It sat in my case for a year and I hardly used it. Well not anymore

I own:
Angelika
Sertao
Crazed
Sin

Their Laguna Bronzer is also really good. Love NARS, although more pricey than MAC, amazing colours & amazing colour payoff!!

I'm surprised there's no love for "Outlaw"! It's the only one I have, but it is beautiful. I will be looking into all the ones you guys love too.

I just got Taj Mahal and it's GORGEOUS. I also have Sin, Lovejoy, Orgasm, and Gina and all are very pretty on me. (I'm NC40). I just bought Crazed from a fellow Specktra-ette but haven't received it yet. Torrid and Taos are next on my list :)

Crazed would look stunning on dark skin, I have it and am super fair, it is almost too pigmented for me, I have to be sooo careful applying it. It's an intense raspberry shade, I think it would look so beautiful on darker skin and would def show up well.

I am an NC45ish and find that Crazed and Mounia are both a bit dark for me.
Any tips on using them before I swap them away?

I have Crazed and Taj Mahal. I'm an NC45-50. Taj Mahal is gooooorgeous, as is Crazed.

I need to get some more ..why is Nars so damn expensive? *rolls eyes*
