Great info, thanks! I think by speaking of new foundations she meant Sheer Glow/Sheer Matte Foundations, which I am really hesitant to buy during F&F. Big palette sounds quite really intriguing too! I'm sure they will make lots of good stuff for 15th anniversary! And ''it won't be very expensive'' is quite a relief =D
I also know that NARS will release felt tip liner in 3 colors; blue, black and brown. Look around - the photos leakened on the internet - I'm particulary interested in blue!
Also, as you may or may not now, NARS plays a big role in NYFW. Last year François Nars himself were on Marc Jacobs shows' makeup - this year, NARS also did 3.1. Phillip Lim. While I was checking down the product rundowns at male show of Phillip Lim, I saw something quite surprising: Orgasm Illuminator!!! It'll be a new product for Spring '10 and I really hope that it's liquid!

(including one that is lighter than MONT BLANC for people like me who seem to reflect the sun) I was also about to buy the best of pallet and she told me to wait because around early December a big pallet (she seem to think about 20 e/s) will be released. It will be celebrating the 15th Anniversary of Nars. She said to snap it up quick because it will be a collectors piece and that it will wont be very expensive. Hope this helps some of you. |

It covers redness very well!! Actually, my main concern is to cover redness and even out skin tone. I have a little bit of old acne scarring on my cheeks... it covers that too. I am sincerely impressed, it is the best foundation I have used (better than any of the chanel, dior, mufe- imo). I love it 'cause it covers my problem area without looking like a mask... my face/skin somehow also show thru.
This Friday my nordstrom is having a "sneak peak" event with Nars national MAs. I'm going (heck, they are are giving away 2 full size items as gwp). Anyway, she said they they will be showing the Holiday lineup: liquid liners, e/s, cleansing oil... So freaking exciting!!!!!!!!!

Can you tell me how Mont Blanc compares to Siberia? Siberia is a little too light on me. Is Mont Blanc very much darker or alot pinker...or just a bit of both? Is Gobi really yellow? I'd love to see swatches and/or MAC equivalents of all the Sheer Glow shades!

I went to John Lewis yesterday and the lovely SA in there was grilled by me about the new palette and she was lovely, she answered all questions as well as she knew how.
I asked if the shadows would be a piddly small shape or if you would get enough space in which to roll your brush around and she said that they would be of a decent size and you had enough space to roll your brush around in.
I asked when they were coming and how long they'd be around for and I can't remember when they'd be around but she said they would be around for a while, as long as there was demand.
She also confirmed the foundation thing but said that all SA's were getting training so they knew which of the old shades matched the new shades.

Noooo!!!!!
I just discovered this foundation literally a week ago and it's the best I've tried. MUFE HD foundation is too heavy, broke me out, and even oxidized to some ugly ashy orange color one me. Laura Mercier Silk Creme is nice, but the color selecion is horrible and nothing matched me. I'm tired of my mineral makeup and MAC powders and foundations break me out like crazy! I thought I found my hg and now it's being discontinued?! Well, I hope the new ones will be as heavenly as the oil-free version. I wonder why they're being dc'ed?

I am also an NW 20 and I asked for a sample and the MA matched me to deuville but it's too yellow for me. Im going back in some time to get a better match but I don't think that the sheer glow really comes in any pink tones. I was looking online and all the shades seem to lean toward a neutral/ yellow undertone. I only saw a few that have pink in them but they seem too light. I really hope that that I'm wrong.

Is that lighter or darker than dueville?? I applied it today using my 190 brush and it wasn't as noticible. I think that before I was using my fingers to blend it unto my face but using a brush makes it blend in so much better imo
