Our Nordstrom Nars' bar associate is fabulous - she gave me a mini-makeover based on eye shadows that appealed to me. Nars eye shadows are beautifully hued, highly pigmented and smooth. They last all day yet wash off easily at end of day. It was a nice surprise when the associate integrated a gorgeous eye pencil ("Nagoya") from the Nars Man Ray collection. Overall the soft yet edgy look that I was going for.
I have been using this in Kalahari for my everyday eyeshadow. I love it! The colors are subtle but go well with my green eyes. Plus it doesn't crease in my eyelids after a long day of wear.
Pigmented, blendable formula with long staying-power. Surabaya is an unusual and beautiful pairing featuring two browns (one golden brown and the other a red brown). I find the two colors to be different enough to wear both at the same time, though some may want to substitute a lighter color for the corners.
Isolde is a gorgeously set gold/bronze copper. It slides on with ease and helps mu coco brown eyes become a beaming golden lined vibe. I am satisfied with pigment and ease.
