I got it by mail and it arrived today. I might take some pics tonight if I can. I would also be interested to see what people think. Believe it or not I don't even own any Nars blushes, only a Laguna bronzer and some lip glosses. It must be fate that Ive been waiting all this time, so Im ready to dive in. Plus Ive read some comments and it seems like the colors might be good for my light skin tone. Im excited.

My next purchase is going to be the Born this Way gloss. I like the stickier texture and the color is a whole lot like my discontinued HG Mac Clarity lipglass. I still havent recovered from the loss of that one

Did a bit of NARS shopping
American Dream Palette
High Society Trio

How do you like it so far? I love the smoothness and glide of the Orgasm in the Multiple stick and was so tempted but I'm not really a peachy or shimmery kind of person. I dunno why the SAs always want to put me in yellows, peaches, corals, I feel like I turn out way too sallow esp. for Asian complexion.

My Nars purchase this past weekend was the Sin blush, it's more plummy and gothic and I love the color, just have to figure out how to apply it correctly on my squarish face. It looks brown and purple at the same time in different lighting.

i'm really liking the orgasm blush a lot so far! i am tan with yellow undertones, so the peachy pink/golden shimmeryness gives me a healthy looking glow. on me it is more on the pink side than on the peach side. i tend to not do too well with "fall" colors (i'm asian too). i have a roundish face with high cheekbones, so i probably am not the best person to give you blush application tips.

there was a blush i had been using by bare minerals that was more purplish and darker. the color was pretty but almost too dark. i like the orgasm/nars a lot more since it isn't a loose powder. with the bare minerals blush, it was a huge challenge to not get too much product onto my brush. i might have to check out the sin blush since i would likely like the color and the fact that it's in a pan rather than a loose powder.

I want to say the Sin blush does not go on very dark at all (but you can build it up).... it is almost an elusive quirky mauve? The reason why I chose it is because it is very much one of those colors that gives some air of mystery to the face. There is Nars at my local Sephora.

My complexion is way too fickle. It's at times lt medium with yellow undertones and other times it's oddly pale and ruddy pink. Haven't looked into the Nars foundation yet, but maybe I will next time. I have the Kevin Aucoin/Nars book (I think it's the first one), what a lot of great looks!

I got Outlaw but I may return as the color is vey similar o Taos.

Thanks for the info!!

BTW, what is WWD?

^Womens Wear Daily

I went to the Nars FNO event at their 413 Bleecker store last night and I was super impressed. I picked up the limited edition exclusive to them eye shadow duo. It's a really beautiful purple duo and I am so happy I snagged it. I really cannot say enough good things about the Nars store- everyone was super helpful. My friend and I had a really nice male makeup artist who helped her chose a red lip. The girls that checked us out were super sweet and one even went a fetched up glasses of champagne because we couldn't move. When you made a purchase last night you also received a free Nars tote bag and a mini Orgasm blush and a Velvet Gloss lip pencil in New Lover. Definitely stop by if you're in the area and you will be taken care of!

I have both Taos and Outlaw. In my opinion, they're not similar at all Outlaw is a shimmery rose as Taos is more shimmering red if that makes sense..
