NARS HOLIDAY COLLECTION 2008

Going into the holiday season, François Nars imagines a look marked by deep purple-infused hues to match the autumnal mood, offset with hints of sparkle to answer the call for festive touches. Bold, regal purple eyes pair with a berry-stained glossy pout. Metallic tones of silver and gold gild the eyes, tempered by a sheer yet statement-making lip. With such rich attention-demanding colors adorning the eyes and lips, cheeks and nails need nothing but a hint of peachy-pink made even more flattering with a whisper of pure gold.

So, I’m pretty sure I have to have Silent Night eyeshadow. Like I will die without it.

I am such a fan of Nars! Christine, I am surprised that the fall’s Cordura didn’t call out to you! I am usually not a brown person but THAT duo I had to have. Along with Galapagos from Spring. I cannot wait for these to come out so I can play. Silent Night shall be mine for sure..

are those multiples in a duo compact??? wow that would be great. i always wanted to try multiples but they’re so expensive and such a big tube. if they really come in this form that would be great and you get to try two colors. i would definitely get maui/portfolio, i’m a big fan of nars blushes but i’m also attracted to gold shadows so that silent night is calling me, can’t wait for swatches.

Hi Victoria – I don’t think Multiples come in duos. I have one – I know they’re expensive, but they work as eyeshadow, blush, and lipstick. They’re really amazing.
