Hey guys!
So, when I recently caught my eye on the NARSissit palettes I was in LOVE. I immediately tried to get the eyeshadow palette - sadly with no luck and settled for the Blush palette. I had been looking at investing in Laguna and Orgasm for quite a while so thought £35 for both and a highlighter? Why not?!
First off when I initially opened this, I won't lie I was a little heartbroken. IT'S TINY. I had to close it and reopen it thinking I was dreaming.( when I saw the eyeshadow palette in person it was the same.) I was like... I've just spent £35 quid on THIS. ( When your as broke as I am, this is a big deal) But you get a mini Laguna, Orgasm and a limited edition highlighter and a brush to use with it.
So I went to Amsterdam and came back monday and looked at it and thought okay, it might not be so bad, so I tried it out, I have to say it takes a few goes to make it look like you have used it but I do really like the colours and I like how subtle Orgasm looks. The highlighter I feel doesn't do much for me but that might be because I am just THAT white. It's also lucky that you get a brush with it as all my blush brushes were far to big, Realtechniques just SWAMPS this little guy.
When you think about it, Nars brushes are like £20? And this is actually a really nice soft brush, so in a sense you have paid £5 for each of the shades, so when you look at it like that its not really a bad purchase. The travel size is also really convenient so that's a bonus for it.
I think I was so disheartened at first because already owning the naked flushed which is £20 and much bigger - I was expecting a bit more then what I got. I guess when it comes down to it, the Naked flushed trumps the NARS palette hands down for me in value, size and pigmentation.
What did you guys make of it?
