Good to know! I'll have to try that next time!

I do love the Sheer Matte foundation in Barcelona. I forgot about it because I'm not using it right now. I do want to move on to Sheer Glow next!

I'm quite a bit darker but I love Casino bronzer as well.

My collection so far: Brushes: Yachiyo blush (favorite blush brush) Eye shade Eye contour small Wide (Hoof shaped) contour Blushes: Taos Mata Hari Taj Mahal Exhibit A Albatross Eye Shadows: Blade runner duo Caravaggio duo Persepolis duo Isolde duo Mediteranee duo Rated R duo 9947 e/s compact Goldfinger e/s single Foundation-- Sheer Matte (New Guinea) I still want Sheer Glow (New Guinea) and waiting for NARS to debut a stunning purple colored blush.

I've heard great things about that Yachiyo brush but have not taken the plunge. I have just about every MAC brush ever made plus some other brands so its so hard to justify new brushes. LOL

I wasn't crazy about it though after awhile -- too much glitter for me. I thought I would be done w/NARS but instead I bought some more, all within the past few months... I have - Penny Lane Sin Sex Appeal Lipgloss - Chihuahua Female Trouble I'm thinking about getting Albatross next but a little worried about the color....?

OMG Albatross is my most favorite highlighter EVER! I have quite a few brands that I use and am fond of but Albatross is still my fave. It gives the most amazing lit from within glow on my skintone.

I'm not quite sure if its universally flattering for all skin tones but on me it's the bomb! LOL
You should totally go into the store and try it. Seriously. Don't use it as a blush because its gold and shimmery. Just try it on the top of your cheekbones.

Yay! A NARS thread!

I am in love with NARS blushes. I just bought Albatross yesterday!

Also I'm a fan of Casino bronzer too and I'm fairly fair with yellow undertones.

Some of my latest NARS purchases

Iluvbags I have a feeling you are "around" the same color as me, how do you like the Cheyenne duo? I bought an extra when I got one as a gift and I am not sure about the bronze by my eyes.

Cheyenne looks nice in the pan...especially for $10. I was afraid about the reddish color but I think that it can be deepened with a bit of brown shadow to offset if the red does not agree with your skintone

The bronze would make a good lower lash liner for a pop if you are afraid to use it on your eyes. Or else you could just use it on the inner rim instead of the whole lid

I recently bought the super orgasm gloss. Is it me, or do the glosses have a nasty taste?

You basically answered what I was asking that I never asked: about the red . Thanks!
