Yup
Same! Just the blush for me i think! The glosses look a tad sheerer than i like them to be!
I feel the same about the glosses V! I was really looking forward to getting them all

I'm still getting the Multiples because they are such a good product. Violet Atom looks sheer but I never rely on T's swatches….she whites out a lot of her images and her Lightroom skills leave something to be desired. That blush looks really too soft and chalky in texture as well.

@Vineetha Are you waiting for it until Nordstrom has it too? If you are, you and I should wait for around two weeks more. It's sad, but at least I don't have to worry about some horrible CS. lol
Oh yes!! No NARS online for me! Last time the dual intensity launched I couldnt wait and ordered directly from them. It took whole 2 weeks for the package to deliver (Fedex Smartpost)

And their customer service is

Fedex Smartpost is the WORST! I'd rather wait a few extra weeks and get it from nordies or sephora. I shudder to think about how terrible that service is, haha.

I think I still want to check out the blush in person... Will be waiting for either Nordstrom or Sephora to launch these.

I want to see other reviews of the multiples. Her review made them sound so pitiful. I don't think I'm going to get the eyeshadow single anymore. All the swatches I've seen make it look like Fall-out City!

I am beyond excited for this collection!! I have not been super excited for a NARS collection in a long time since being too busy with MAC's LE collections.

I still want some things. Swatches have not discouraged me. I got an invitation for an event at the end of April with the products just as the SA told me. I just don't know if I want to wait for the event or get the products when they launch. Is Nars like Mac and will have sold out products while having an event for a particular collections?

I know she reviews them based on their claims... and they're supposed to be able to be used on the lips. However, does anyone actually use the NARS multiple on their lips? She said that was really impacting the score. She definitely made them sound pitiful. I will have to check it out in person for sure. Also, I know everyone is different but the way she describes some products as being so unbearably drying, I have to take it with a grain of salt. This is because I think I have a higher tolerance for dry lip products than she has. I don't think I've ever used a product that literally felt like it was "sucking the life" out of my lips or was painful to wear. I believe her when she says it, and it must be horribly uncomfortable--- but I can't picture a lip product being painful!

@Icecaramellatte@msvluvsmac I agreed with msvluvsmac. Besides, many people usually wait until Nordstrom and Sephora have the collections since Nars CS including delivery service is horrible.

I think the color of the whole products is gorgeous, but they (except lipglosses) look quite dry based on T's reviews. Oh Nars..why?

everyone should send an email to nars complaining about using smartpost
why they can't just use usps like every other normal retailer?

I think I'm going to go to Nordstrom ahead of time and try the products and preorder the things I want. I did that with the spring collection. They had it displayed around the time it launched at NARS.

I know it's such a FWP but when I find out sites use FedEx, I go out of my way to avoid ordering. Things don't have to be delivered early, but there's no reason my package should sit in a facility for days just because it's not scheduled to arrive for another week. >_>

Plus, they don't offer free 2 day-shipping (over $100) anymore. No matter how much we buy, Smartpost is the only free shipping option we can get. Really horrible CS.
