Upon further thinking, I think the photo at the top might not the summer 2014 promo picture. It appears at the 413 BLKR street boutique (see Narsissist's latest Instagram picture http://instagram.com/p/j4d6xfCa7S/ ).
The last picture (the one left of the duos) looks like it could be it.

The duo looks like another version of Rated R.

 

[MarieMary]

My thoughts exatcly! Except maybe for the neon part, Tropical Princess is like a softer Rated R. And Lost Coast is like a muted Divine.
I have both, but the new ones look different enough to justify a purchase. Lost Coast sounds pretty amazing (golden pewter

) and this pairing of color is great.

I love the name Tropical Princess! Lol not into the colors though. Interested to see what the other products are!

I heard Nars loves purple and I think he really does. Lilac and lavender!

Do you mean the one which looks similar to Tzarine?

You're welcome!


I'm not sure where to put this, but I had seen these lipglosses elsewhere a few weeks (months?) ago, but since it was not during an official NARS event, I wasn't sure if those were real products or counterfeits. Looks like they are real. So apparently there's a new look for the lipglosses. And maybe reformulation? In either case, the packaging is different. NARS is imprinted in white on the handles and the rest looks transparent instead of a frosted effect. I don't think it's a new line of lipglosses; I just assumed this is a new look for the already existing line since there is a transparent shade like Triple X.

I would love it if Nars reformulated the lipglosses and got rid of the awful smell. I love the colours and the way they feel on the lips but I just can't deal with the smell.

Oh boy... might want both duos...

I talked to a manager and she said new brushes will come out (actually, current ones are gonna be discontinued) between Apr an Jun, so I think it's gonna be after the summer collection. And all of the Kabuki brushes are gonna be discontinued. That's what she said to me.

 

[MarieMary]

But there are kabuki brushes in the new line.
This is the picture that Eliz4 found on this website: http://forum.sweetmakeuptemptations.com/viewtopic.php?t=250&p=2196
Why put kabuki brushes in the promo picture if they don't exist anymore? The author of the thread said the kabuki brushes aren't discontinued.

 

[Eliz4]

I heard that they're only keeping the kabuki brushes in the new collection (with minor changes, like shorter hairs for the ITA brush) & at least some of them will be available in april...

I don't know but that's what the manager told me today.:S

Btw, did you know Nars priced up their duo, single eyeshadows and blush?

... that she found here, in all likelihood. I mean, I find it very interesting that she posted the information and pictures that were on Instagram for a whole week for everyone to see *not* right after they were posted on Instagram, but right after they were posted here on Specktra, a week later. Mmm. At least she credited the original sources, I'll give you that. But etiquette says you say add a "via xxx" when that's obviously how you found out the information.

The blush and lip gloss info simply comes from the Instagram picture that was shared here. It's what they used for Toni Garrn's look. She cut the picture so it doesn't appear.
