NARS "The Happening" Eye and Cheek Palette (limited edition)

[MarieMary]

Hello everyone, and Merry Christmas!

I have some good news for you!
NARS will apparently release on January 1st, 2013 a limited edition eye and cheek palette (yes, Orgasm is there) called "The Happening".
It's like the Debbie Harry palette with 2 large sections on the left and right, and 4 eyeshadow shades in the middle.

Merry Christmas

Nars smh. So many beautiful cheek colors and they choose sparkly Orgasm and invisible Laguna again.

I thought I was the only one who found Laguna to be a dud. Doesn't work on me either and neither does Orgasm. I'll have to pass.

Laguna is stunning on lighter skin tones.

Lol, I guess Orgasm = MAC's Carbon. They put it in everything.

 

[katred]

Orgasm and Laguna are both too warm on me, but those shadows look really enticing. Trying to remind myself that I need to save up for all the Spring collections. Thanks Marie for the heads' up!!

 

[MarieMary]

Apparently the 4 eyeshadow shades are Night Star, Corfu, Coconut Grove, and Kuala Lumpur II.
I hope that this is a powder version of Corfu, otherwise every other powder in the pan would stick to the cream. :/

Wasted potential, NARS. Ditch Orgasm and I probably would have snapped this up.

i was thinking something similar except i would be okay with orgasm but wanna ditch laguna and have casino instead...

I don't have Orgasm at all. I refuse to buy it because I'm pretty sure I'll eventually get it for free as a promo item, or it will be in some palette that I want to get.

same here.

 

[MissTT]

I don't have Orgasm either, but I've tried it and I didn't have one so... Like y'all I'm sure I'll get it for free elsewhere. I think I've picked up Laguna for free, too, and gave it to my daughter. I can't remember if she prefers Casino or Laguna. I think Casino if that was in the Danmari palette. She dropped the palette and that shade broke.

And here is a picture of the palette.

It's in the Spring 2013 thread. Release date of February in France. I don't know about the other countries, or if it's a Sephora-exclusive there. I guess it's best to contact your local NARS customer service, or local Sephora.

Hopefully the Sephora palette finds its way to the US. I really like that one. I'm not quite sure if this one is an absolute must for me, but I like that it could be a nice running-late-for-work and have-to-do-my-makeup-in-a-fitting-room kind of pallet. I wish they would ease up on the Orgasm though. NARS, you have lots of pretty blushes, Orgasm is not the only thing that people enjoy.

The Happening palette is now available at Barneys for $65.

I could NOT find this on the Barney's website

 

[MaitaiFluff]

I saw it there a few days ago, but it will be coming to Nordstrom for their Beauty Spring Runway thing which should be coming up pretty soon.

i think so too. i got both orgasm and laguna mini's "free" and they don't really work for me. Laguna is not for my tone (not sure that casino is either but I'll try it out eventually). Orgasm can be a golden highlighter but i don't use it so I will pass on this beautiful palette.
