I think the quality of the collection is quite awful even if colors are beautiful. T gave another poor grade for Silent Nude. I usually disagree with her reviews about Nars items, but this time I actually agree with her.

Oh I just found out they reduced amount of each product.

The multiple: 15g-> 14g
The blush (Starscape & Silent Nude): 4.8g-> 4.5g
The duo: 4.8g-> 4g


Same prices, reduced amount, but poor qualities? What's wrong with Nars?

I still have the nars final cut collection I didn't even use them yet the love of makeup
I like the color of the starscape blush, but am a little meh about the grade/ texture. Il have to wait til nordies gets it wow really?! i actually bought love and new attitude? and then returned them, i wish i waited til i was sure because now i want them again lol. I thought about getting the virtual domination blush palette for it but i know i wouldn't use the highlighter, and i think deep throat would have been extra for me

Hi all! Got my hands on the two multiples from this collection and I put up lots of pics and full review on my blog (link in signature) but here are a couple of pics!

What do you think about the multiples generally speaking? I'm always on the fence to get them, I feel like they will move my foundation under when applied.

As for the collection, I think I'm going to skip the duo, I don't need another purple shade by Nars :X
The mono and blushes look stunning tho!!

I think multiples are love or hate.

I really like them. Easy to use great for highlight, great underneath powder blush...

I only have one but I like it fine, the more sheer ones are great for highlighting and the ones with more pigment make nice sheer blushes. If you're worried about them taking off your foundation I would definitely apply with fingers. Just dab, blend, and build until it looks like you want it to. I wouldn't apply straight from the tube.

Going have to try it, I really like Violet Atom, it's the kind of color/shine that's fun to play with.

These are my first multiples so I can only compare them to each other or other blushes and highlighters I own, but I wore Violet Atom as a highlighter today and it didn't move and it was a crisp 70 today! I used the NARS luminous weightless foundation which is already kind of sheer so there wasn't much to slide around on my face in the first place lol. If I was going to use a heavier liquid foundation or cream foundation, I feel like this would be better applied with a brush instead of taking the stick directly to your face.

What do you think about Violet Atom? Are you guys going to buy it?
I basically love pinky-lilac color, but I'm sure whether I'll get it because of the quality. I think I need more reviews and swatches.

Same for me, I do find the color interesting but I still have two illuminators standing on my vanity not getting any love because I didn't like the way it performed XD

I am quickly losing my enthusiasm for this collection based on reviews.
The blush is doubtful for me now..I didn't realize it was matte.
And the e/s....sounds like that are glitter disasters.

I might give my money to Urban Decay instead.

I'm definitely getting a couple of blushes from UD. I'm not sure about NARS at this point, I guess I'll wait to swatch in store.

I've got the single eyeshadow and it is a glitter disaster lol

I thought I might be able to use it as a highlighter but it was so glittery I looked like a vampire from Twilight
