In the last month or so I’ve gone from being a girl who doesn’t spend a great deal of time on eye makeup – save for a quick flick of eyeliner and lashings of mascara- to being somewhat obsessed with eye shadows. I think it must be all those great beauty blogs out there, inspiring me (a couple of my faves are Joanna Loves, Chic Avenue Daily and Mirifique Beauty) to think that I too could, with a bit practice, become a dab hand at applying my own eye makeup. It started with the Nars At First Sight Palette which I bought just before Christmas – managing to nab the very last one in Space NK’s online store. I then received the much-hyped Naked palette by Urban Decay for Christmas – I know that Naked 3 was just released last month but I still think the original palette has the edge when it comes to creating neutral day-time looks. The latest palette to catch my eye (pardon the pun!) is the soon-to-be-launched NARSissist palette by Nars. Rumour has it that the palette, which forms part of a range to celebrate the brand’s 15th anniversary, will be released in the UK on January 20. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it will be stocked by the Nars counters in Space NK so I get a chance to use the vouchers my parents gave me for Christmas. Then I’ll just have to read some more blog posts to figure out how to create the perfect smoky eye…
I love Nars and it’s quality. Their eye makeup is so silky to the touch. I’m also obsessed with their blushes.
Oh yes the blushes, sooo nice! X
I’m intimidated when it comes to trying different shades of eyeshadow! The bloggers have been peaking my interest though and now, I can’t wait to see your smoky eye! 😀
Me too. I think it might be a while before I post any up-close photos of my eye makeup! X
I have an eyeshadow addiction!!! You tempting me with this gorgeous palette is really unfair… Kidding aside it is so much fun playing with different colors and looks, hope you get it…I think I’ll have to check this one out too. Nars is just fantastic!!!
I know its gorgeous. Just hope it doesn’t sell out before I can get my hands on it! X
I am so bad at at eye-make up or make up in general. I went to a party this Saturday and I had to watch a video on YouTube just so I won’t end up looking like a raccoon. 😦
Me too, I have a lot to learn. But it’s fun and online tutorials are a great help. X

For you 🙂
Thank you so much! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. X
Thank you , yes , we enjoyed it !
You are so brilliant ! xxx
Great palette for you to play and have fun with and I am looking forward to seeing your eye shadow looks.
Thank you. Just hope I can get hold of one before it sells out! Very little information at the moment on when its launching. X
Oh that palette is gorgeous. I just bought two palettes in recent months – including Naked 3, which I loooove so much, it’s verging on scary – and so I really don’t need another one, but those colors are just gorgeous. And also, I adore NARS.
Ugh someone just give me a million dollars already.
