Rue Allent

NARS Rue Allent Velvet Duo Eyeshadow ($36.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a new, limited edition duo (and formula) that launches April 15th online. The compact is the same size as other NARS’ eyeshadow duos, but the actual quantity is slightly less at 0.10 oz. (compared to 0.14 oz.). The formula felt less powdery and thin compared to most of NARS’ eyeshadows, which I found to be an upgrade overall. This particular duo featured a soft, warm white and a smoldering, smoky green-tinged brown.

Rue Allent (Left)

Rue Allent (Left) is a light white with subtle, warm undertones and a pearly sheen. It had good pigmentation–just shy of being opaque–with a soft, lightly dusty texture that buffed and blended well on the skin and didn’t appear dry on. The color wore well for seven and a half hours on me.

Rue Allent (Right)

Rue Allent (Right) is a deep, muted black-brown with warm, olive undertones and a faint, fine green pearl. The consistency was smooth, soft without being powdery, and fairly blendable on the eye. It had nearly opaque pigmentation that applied evenly and lasted for eight hours on me.
