Nars Spring 2012

[MarieMary]

I got tinted moisturizer Finland (which is the lightest shade) and was really really disappointed because it's quiet dark on me
after I wore it on my face.

(By the way, when I use Sheer glow foundation, I mix Siberia and Gobi, so I'm between NC10~15.)
The formula is awesome, though.

I think Sheer glow Gobi is lighter than Finland.

Finland looks like between Gobi and Deauville or somewhere.
I'm really disappointed and I think I should mix it with Sheer glow or Firming Siberia.

Thank you for the information.
I'm very disappointed too.

I think this review of the Tinted Moisturizers is pretty complete and full of useful information. Plus, I just love her make-up!

I'm dying to try this tinted moisturizer now! I hope they have a shade that fits perfectly to my skin!

I got Cuba, and I wear Cadiz in Sheer MAtte. I am about nc 42/44/45

I thought maybe Cuba would be a good match for someone who wears Santa Fe in sheer glow but again the swatches makes it look many shades darker than Santa Fe :/ I guess I either wait for Karla's swatches or just wait much longer till these are released in Canada

thank you, I'm glad I didn't order online then. I'm currently about NW22 (NW25 is too dark) so Cuba will be way too dark. My Sephora said they'll have these in 2 weeks so I will swatch in person then

I really hope my Sephora gets them in two weeks. Canada always seems to be the slowest. What I hate the most is how fast products get sold out in Canada!

By any chance, does anyone know if this tinted moisturizer will be permanent or just for the spring season?

 

[Monsy]

there is no way they are LE
we should open separate thread just for tinted moisturizers

Just finished a review of NARS Pure Radiant tinted moisturizer in Polynesia: http://thebeautyisageek.com/2012/02...-tinted-moisturizer-in-polynesia-the-rundown/

Here's a composite swatch pic:

They are permanent. Should be up on NARSCosmetics.com tomorrow and in Sephora around the first week in March.

Looks stunning on you!! I'm seriously in love with the duo as well!!

Thanks so much you guys! Paramaribo is just amazing, isn't it?

 

[suenoojos]

i like the TM but i still think Chantes TM is the best for my skin

 

[JulieDiva]

Does anybody have Bilbao lipstick?
I'm confused what color it is because someone said it's a peachy-nude color, but some people said it's a brownish-nude color.

Hi! I am new to Nars makeup, but this BILBAO lipstick is so gorgeous, i had to search around on here..to see if others felt the same.
In the tube, it is more of a brownish nude, but on my medium, pigmented lips, it comes out a nice, neutral peachy nude. Serious love here, from a non nars addict!!!!

 

[suenoojos]

i love the duo on u !! gorg

Heehee- I thought the same thing... I kept hoping she was going to say what she was wearing! She does look pretty fair, so it makes me hopeful that I'll be able to find a shade to match my skin.

Haha! I thought you might like what she has on her lips.

Thanks for the review, EngineerBarbie!

Here is another review with good swatches of Alaska and St Moritz:

I agree with Monsy; opening a new thread for the Tinted Moisturizers would be a good idea! Can mods cut a thread into two distinct ones?

I was at Sephora today on a mission to spend the giftcard I received for Christmas (how I managed to go almost 2 months without walking into Sephora with it is beyond me lol), but I stopped by the NARS section and Douce France e/s trio is sooo gorgeous! I had to have it! I can't wait to play around with it. I know Temptalia didn't give it that great of a review, but on my pale skin, all the colors really popped, and the tester didn't have any swatch issues when I placed the shadows on my hand (which is good, considering how grungy testers can be). Love it love it!

I currently wear NARS Sheer Glow in Trinidad. NARS TM in Seychelles was recommended for me.
