NARS + Pierre Hardy

[Miss QQ]

The huge blush compact looks comical to me from the photos, but maybe they look good in real. It's nice to have a large mirror though! Love the pics of the nail art and the display. I love the lavender yellow and peach black duos!

I used one pan of NARS Outlaw for 7 years and didn't own another blush during that time so I couldn't imagine how long a jumbo NARS blush would last me.

Ahh! If that's the case, then I'll never work through my NARS blush hoard!

I talked with my MUA today and he said I was right that the blushes are in the larger pans.

Yay, because that means the price increase is at least a bit justified.

It's a very pretty collection, much more than the Andy Warhol one I think.
The polishes are beautiful, so are the blushes. I think I'll pass the summer collection except for 2 items maybe and focus on this one which is classy and artistic !

 

[Dominique33]

Here the prices are 39 € ( ? ) for a blush and 29 € ( ? ) for the polishes, well assuming I will purchase one blush only and one set only, it's ok. As you said a blush lasts very long, in my own experience at least 4 years and much more in fact.

I love NARS blush, but I wouldn't value a larger one. I've worn both Deep Throat and Douceur to death since getting them both last summer and they have a faint dip. None of my others show any wear at all. It's the same as the larger MAC mineralize lippies (only they have a shorter shelf life); I don't want a larger one that costs more when I likely wouldn't even finish the regular size version.

I don't mind a reasonable price increase for a special product, but this is just too much and a larger blush would be a pain to carry in my purse for touch-ups. I'm going to pass. Too bad - the colours look lovely.

I agree with this! I've owned Deep Throat for about 5 years or so and wear it at least 3 times a week yet there's no dent in it. Same is true for Madly which I've owned for 3 years now. So though the blushes look super pretty, I won't be shelling out $48CAD + tax on them.

There are still a few blushes in the Nars perm range I'm eyeing so I don't feel i'm missing out much.

39€ for a blush, 28€ for a nail duo.

Thank you, well it's ok and worth the price I hope, I love the packagings it's all very classy. I have some Nars polishes, very good formula, soft for the nails and long-wearing !

I realised as I was fretting about the price that $48 is the price of Chanel Joues Contrastes, so it doesn't seem so bad to me anymore.

ya i know...but it's rare for me to buy a Chanel blush these days too :/ Also, it hurts more coz Nars has always been cheaper.

Exactly. I never hesitate to buy a Chanel blush. No difference here. I don't really need a larger size, but if the color is gorgeous I am going to want it and kick myself for not getting it. I hope I only love one of them, though.

I agree Chanel JC blushes are the best baked formula in the world. 48 $ well, it's 37 € here but Guerlain or Givenchy are more expensive ( 41 € ) and not so good. Chanel JC blushes are just perfection. I will purchase one blush from the Nars Pierre Hardy collection, both look very pretty in the pans.

I will say that Nars blushes seem to take longer than any others I own to wear down. Bushes from other companies that I've worn as much as my original Nars one- Deep Throat- show wear much more.

Temptalia has posted a sneak peek of the collection and my worst fears have been confirmed: I need both blushes. Somebody pray for my bank account.

 

[Rinstar]

I want both blushes and the Sharks duo
