I suppose some of the sets would make really nice gifts, however, I’m just not feeling blown away by them. I’m definitely looking forward to Nars main holiday collection, though. It’s always fairly interesting, if nothing else!
NARS might have thought they were playing it safe by sticking to existing shades…but almost all of these are lip products, lol. (Maybe they’ll sell well in other markets where people took the pandemic seriously from the beginning and are now able to live more normally. Or places where people still aren’t and are just pretending life is normal.)
I guess some are still wearing makeup under their masks. I usually understand wearing it for yourself and feeling different with it on—but now you can’t catch an occasional glimpse of your gloss in the mirror; it’s just going to make a mess of your mask (fine for those of us using disposables, I suppose?) and likely make it less comfortable.
All of these look very promising as the Nars Audacious lipstick line was such a winner for the brand. The shades are timeless and perfect for a time without masks!
I’m so saddened that NARS didn’t have a main holiday collection this year. That is one that I always look forward to because they truly seem to have fun with it. Even if the products are the same they really shine with the packaging and overall aesthetic for Holiday. Out of all of the makeup launches, that was the one I always looked forward to the most.
I didn’t end up picking up anything from the gifting line, though if you don’t own a lot of NARS or are wanting to try it out there are some good pieces in there. Hopefully they pull out all the stops again for 2021!
