The nude lipstick set (Nordstrom exclusive coufrett) is available on Nordstrom right now. It looks like it is the only item available from the Man Ray collection.

Finally saw the Nars gifting at BlueMecury. I was most interested in the lipstick coffret and that was the most disappointing. The glass top is really heavy but the picture is just a sheet of Xeroxed paper that lies on top of the lipsticks. The lipsticks themselves are a little too dark for my liking. I thought the design would be etched into the glass although I should have realized otherwise at that price point. I had all these plans of buying that and the nude lipstick coffret at Nordstrom but not now. Also I was disappointed to learn that the blushes are not going to be released in stores. I so wanted to swatch it before I bought it.

I think they're both 0.08oz

DANG! I had the lipstick coffret on my lust list too! That is very disappointing to hear the packaging quality is that flimsy. You would think at least the image would be photo quality attached in some way or embedded in the glass top...I mean this was to be all about his photography! BOO!

The large eyeshadow palette is so pretty!

Too bad it's not available in Canada. I wonder why?

I am debating whether to get the pink blush or the face palette...i have already ordered one of the eye duos, and might cave in at some point and get another...

Annnddd now the glosses are up on Nordies and mislabeled

ETA I see just the swatch pics are off now. I forgot to add that the fuschia gloss was "Off Limits" and not "Limits" when I emailed them but oh well
ETA2 They fixed the swatch pics too

I saw the Anita Gold case lipstick and the Red mini lipstick set in a Sephora Store.

I picked up the Nude Nordstrom lipstick set. I knew the photograph wasn't glossy from a video I saw and I wasn't bothered by it. The glass dome was quite heavy. I still think I might get one for a gift. I'm still not crazy about mini lipsticks in general though. These look nice but they aren't magnetic like the full-size. I just wish the set had full size lipsticks in it instead. I think mini lipsticks are popular right now. I saw so many mini lipstick sets on my last outing. Urban Decay had one and I liked one of the colors. I think I will buy the full size though.

I contacted Space NK online about the large eyeshadow palette. I know Nars IG said no US release but I thought it wouldn't hurt. I know that Space NK had Zoeva last year for the holidays even though they didn't carry the line here. Space NK told me it would be online the 24th but to keep checking the site. Well, the operator had a UK phone number so I wondered if they sent my request to the wrong country. However, I have learned that the eyeshadow palette has been on the UK site for some time now. Maybe I did get the right info. I've been crazy busy this week so I haven't been able to send a follow up email but I would watch for the next few days just in case. Plus, I remember that they had some of those Zoeva palettes in the Bloomies boutiques and the Bloomies site last year so I will try to check those too. But it is crazy time at work right now so . . . If any one sees it please give me a heads up. Thanks.

Good to see you posting.

That would be cool if we end up getting the large eye palette also.

I kind of had the same feeling about wanting the lip set to be full size however it is also nice to just have minis when you're wearing the lipstick less often or haven't decided how much you like it. Less guilt :)

I picked up the Nude Nordstrom lip set last week. I've had trouble deciding on my next ourchase but took the plunge when I saw NM 10% Ebates. I ordered Glass Tears eyeshadow palette, the 2 eyeshadow duos and the nude gloss. I still want everything though. I wanted to get the red lip set from Sephora for the sale. I thought I would get the blushes at the boutique this week but now Beautylish is having something too. Oh I may have to wait on the blushes.
