We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

I haven’t received my purchases yet but since I started out not wanting anything from this release and ended up with four items I am glad to see that overall it did well. My four purchases were 3 A’s and 1 B grade so not bad. The packaging was what really pushed me over the edge! These roundups are so helpful, Christine. Thank you.

I haven’t seen these anywhere. Is this Nars website only or are they coming to stores at some point? I love the packaging of the pallets but probably the only thing I would buy is the Loves Me Not blush.

So far my favorite collection of the year! I really like how NARS does collaborations — it’s not just slapping on a name. The color story, textures and design really reflect Erdem’s aesthetic. Btw, the color of the packaging was chosen to be the same as the color of the walls in Erdem’s store in London — details like this really gets me!
