Christopher Kane for NARS Collection

Hello, everyone!  I hope you've all had an amazing week and weekend!  Update: mine was really good!  I won a giveaway on Instagram and won a MAC x Giambattista Valli limited edition lipstick.  I got the shade Tats, the one that I really wanted but didn't pick up before it sold out.  (I added the pictures of it on my MAC x Giambattista Valli blog post.)  I also received a direct message from Nars on Instagram asking for my address so they could send me a little thank you gift (an iPhone case and a velvet shadow stick in the shade Hollywoodland) for posting about Nars products.  I was definitely not expecting that to happen!  I'll post the pictures at the end of this post.  Thank you, Nars!  <3

Anyway, for this week's blog post, I'm going to show you my picks and swatches of the products I picked up from the Christopher Kane collection with NARS.  I know this collection came out earlier this year, but I've only just purchased these.  I purchased these items on Sephora's website, but unfortunately they're no longer available there. However, these products (and a few more) are available on NARS' website here.  I love that they added the touch of pink to their original packaging for this collection - I'm such a sucker for limited edition packaging.  After seeing swatches of the products from this collection I wish I had picked up the eyeshadow in the shade "Outer Limits" because it is gorgeous, but unfortunately it's sold out everywhere.

The products that I picked up are the "Starscape" blush and two lip glosses in the shades "Glow Pink" and "Mezmer".  The "Starscape" blush is neon pink, but it really isn't that intimidating once you swatch it.  It's a beautiful pink blush that you can build up depending on your desired intensity.  The "Glow Pink" lip gloss is a very, very sheer fuchsia.  The "Mezmer" lip gloss is a sheer neon pink (though not nearly as sheer as "Glow Pink").  These are not overly sticky on the lips.  I can't stand sticky lip gloss, but these are comfortable to wear.  The products (and packaging) are stunning!

Thank you for stopping by!  If you haven't purchased anything from this collection, now is the time!  You definitely won't regret it.
