The collection will be released in one week, Aquamarine?

So we hope. It was originally supposed to be released January 15th, but it seems to be hiding very well.

NARS has sometimes released information about a collection just 8 to 10 days prior to the release date. Today is January 3rd, the official release date (US) is January 15th. We just have to wait a little. ;)

Edit: Mmmmm if I read well, the Japanese magazine says 15/02/2013. I'm not sure what to think; it's supposed to be January 15th for the US, February 1st for the rest of the world. So either Japan gets the collection later than the other countries, or the global release of the collection has been pushed back 2 weeks. I hope not.

I went back and checked 2012's launch dates and the Spring collection was out mid-January, at least on the Nars web site. It would be odd for them to push the launch two weeks ahead, since it would mess up their year-to-year sales comparison. The only reason I can think of that it might be delayed is if counters are still pushing through a lot of stock of the Warhol/ holiday collection (my counters still seem to have a lot).

I still have my fingers crossed that we'll get something soon, because you're right- they do often wait until just before they send out press samples to give out the colour story.

Thanks for checking, katred. ;)
If last year they released the spring collection in mid-january, and this year they announced it for mid-january as well (US), then we should get information very soon. :)

My Gilt City voucher expires Jan 16th! *rubshandsgreedily* I've got $40 in free NARS goodies to grab. I'm glad I stumbled into this thread. Thanks, ladies!

Here are some hi-res promotional pictures. Sadly not the entire collection (Persia Single Eyeshadow, Dressed to Kill Lipstick and the Soft Touch Shadow Pencil are missing). But it's enough to see the complexity of Disco Inferno Nail Polish and to confirm that Seduction is a powder blush.














Also a fantastic Sephora-exclusive new gift set called "And God Created The Woman" will be available in February according to the source. I can't wait, it's a wonderful travel eye make-up kit: an eyeshadow palette, a travel size eyeshadow base and #3 eye brush. It might not be Sephora-exclusive in other countries, it might only apply to France. We'll know soon enough.

Thanks, Marie!
If Seduction has some brownish color like G-spot, I think I'll pass because brownish color (esp, blushes) always makes me look ashy.:S
You know, Seduction looks like a darker and redder version of Oasis blush rather than G-spot in the pic.
I haven't heard about a trio eyeshadow yet, but I don't think there's no a trio this year.lol

You're welcome, Aquamarine1543.
I think NARS promo pictures are very accurate, so you can trust that. ;) These had me convinced I need Seduction blush and Disco Inferno Nail Polish.

Because of some flash light, it looks like reddish-pinky lipstick.lol But I think Dressed to Kill is def. a red lipstick.
Btw, Nars started to post the color story on FB!

About this pic (which posted on the 2nd page by Marie), it looks like the swatch of the left side is Dressed to kill l/s. You can see some words under the swatch.
and I think the eyeshadow which is right next to Mad Mad world duo is Persia eyeshadow.:)
