Far left is the Pro-Prime smudge proof eyeshadow base. Less than a quater of pea size is all you will need for each eye lid. It evens out and intensifies colour on the lid and stops colour going into crease of the eye. The only other one i have heard of that has a great recommendation also is Urban Decay. This is £18.00
Lovely shade of grey with a lilac undertone and slight shimmer. Great for across the entire eyelid with a matte dark purple in the eye crease/socket for an evening look on blue or blue/grey eyes If you prefer a day wear look then put pink colour across enitre eyelid with Lhasa in crease/socket. £17.00 and a little goes a very long way.
The larger than life eye pencil has a very intense bright purple colour. Goes onto eye very easily without too much drag. Nice colour on blue and green eyes. Blends quite easily also. £17.00 but is brand new to Nars and this one is going to last at least 6 months to a year.
This bright Fuschia pink shade is very long wearing and does not feel drying even though it is matte. I found it made my lips look much larger because bright shades generally do on my lips. If you want less of a matte effect you will need to apply lip gloss over it but i preferred it without. £18.50 matte lipsticks are one pound dearer than their other lipsticks
Nars have become very famous for their blushers and i understand why. They have a great pay off of colour with just one slight sweep with a brush. Blend so incredibly well and this shade only has a tiny hint of shimmer so great for contouring also. I would say though, for my skin (which is pale) this is a fall shade and i would wear a darker shade of lip colour with it which is on trend for fall/winter 2012. Shade is a berry colour. £21.00 excellent value!
Shade is Carthage
