I’ve had my eye on this one… I’ve been super curious about the contouring duo… Any fair complected people tried them out? I’m wondering if the highlight powder would actually highlight on me, or just look like powder. For reference, I’m MAC NW10-13, NARS Sheer Glow in Mont Blanc. I’m also curious to see your value breakdown, since I have absolutely no use for Laguna…at least they left out Orgasm?
Have the combo in Paloma. It is supposed to be a contour and highlighter. I use it as a highlight and a blush. For your reference I am MAC NW15 the highlighter is nice and not overpowering. I use the darker color more as a blush/face warmer upper. I love it, but I do not think the Paloma combo is going to work for anyone who is medium or darker.
Thank you! Sounds like it might work? Now let’s see how it goes in the review!
I’m NW15 as well, it works great for me as contour. I use the creamy color to kind of neaten up the edges of my shadow near my temples and more or less set makeup in my t zone. It’s so light, as well as totally matte, it doesn’t really contribute much in highlighting the higher planes of my face. But I love it.
Thank you! Sounds like it might be more of a finishing powder for me, then, but at least it would be usable!
Looks good, I kind of wish they hadn’t included Laguna AGAIN.
Some pretty wearable colors there!
Hi everyone,
Has anyone tried this? How is the quality?
I’ve been using it for a week and love it! I actually find the texture to be much silkier than the blush/bronzer duo, and the two new blushers are quite pretty! If you don’t mind having another Laguna, I’d say it’s well worth it!
The quality is great (as expected from NARS)! 🙂
I wound up getting this and I think it is a beautiful concept. I can’t wait for your review!
I kind of like the Paloma contour blush. It’s between a contour shade and a blush shade and I like that it’s sheer.
Hi. I happened to try this because I liked the packaging, didn’t own Laguana and a sucker for blushes/highlighters. I own only Nars lipsticks. It was nice, kinda hefty (if you like that) but the formulation wasn’t for me. Oh well.
Ugh that looks so nice. Really hope it gets a good reviews because I would love to add it to my collection! I have very little blush and it would certainly expand my color choices from my current taupe and light pink haha
Which two are the new shades?
Will you be doing reviews and comparisons?
Thanks so much!
The colours are so light/pale
I wonder when nars is coming with a cheek palette that suits darker skin granted I’m in to makeup sinds last year and that one was light as well. Was goning to skip it when I saw the promos….
Thanks for the swatches Christine!
Not a fan of these kinds of blush palettes because there are colours that you would not use. Often the quality is a bit inconsistent in these sets too. I shall await your review Christine.
I’m so tempted to buy this one because I always miss out but I already own the full size of languna and dolce vita ?
Laguna* ?
received this yesterday & it is beautiful!
Oh I love the blush colors, but the highlighter looks awful!!! Arg. I already got the first blush palette, I was thinking maybe I need this one too! Can’t wait to see the grades!
Dolce vita looks different from the one I have or is it me? Darker, cooler, less shimmery.
Urgh.. Now I cannot decide to purchase this cheek palette or the hourglass palette…
I own a disgusting amount of audacious lipsticks but only a few other items from Nars. Actually maybe only 2 or 3….I’m interested in this palette pending the review.
Hmmm I was just thinking Luster would be an intetesting topper for a few of the shades in thebalm’s cream blush palette…I own it and use it fairly often but am blanking on the exact name…how bout those apples maybe? Something apple anyway lol Does anyone else see the potential or am I off track?! It’s been a loooong day, sorry zzzzzzzzz 🙂
Crazy, but I think I actually like this! Only problem may be that Paloma highlighter and Blasphemy blush, both look dusty and too pale for me, I think.
Dolce Vita is so pretty. I’d probably empty that pan before even making a dent in the others, lol.
I like the look of the blushes, but I don’t contour, and Laguna isn’t all that flattering on me, so this is a probably not for me.
Man i just want o get NARS Paloma Highlighter in a larger size. lol
Wow!!!! I need this one!
It looks beautiful, but I worry Laguna would be too dark on me.
I’d probably only like the Paloma blush. I feel like these shades are just a tad too light for my skin. Meh, I’ll pass on this one.
I like Dolce Vita, Luster and Robotic blushes but not the others. I’m planning on making up my own Nars blush palette soon!
Uh, I’ve got to look out for this one. I always wanted to get Dolce Vita and Luster and the Paloma Contour Duo. What I mostly love is that they didn’t include Orgasm and Albatross, everybody and their mama owns those ones by now! Same thing goes for Laguna, but at least we see a few newer shades that weren’t in every Nars palette 😀
Does anyone know of a dupe for Robotic? I don’t care for the rest of the palette but I saw a tester today and robotic is gorgeous.
Oh look — a big, fat Laguna. I’m not going to buy this just because it has Laguna in it. The other colors are excellent, but I’ve had just about enough of Laguna.
I already own the palette, but I can’t wait for your review!!
I’m really happy with this palette! I think that the quality is up to par with what you would expect from NARS. For all the medium skintone girls out there ~~ I have medium (to light/medium in the winter) skin and I was able to use everything in the palette without any issues. I was worried the two new blushes (robotic & blasphemy) wouldn’t show up on my skin, but both are buildable and look great!
do you think this palette would work for someone with nc42 complexion?
