NARS “Tainted Love” Set – USD$78
Official spill from NARS
“Passions of Pink! Sheer and striking-hot pinks for lips, cheeks and nails. Look out! The new Angelika lip gloss and limited-edition Multiple Stick for eyes, lips and cheeks comes in cotton-candy pink with flecks of shimmering silver and gold. Nails excite in shocking-pink Schiap nail polish.”
I have to admit, i lusted after this set as i wanted the LE multiple stick in Angelika
Angelika blush is one of my faves so i was super excited to know abt the multiple stick.
Incidently, this was actually my top blush fave for 2011.
Swatches
No swatch for the nail polish as i have not used it yet.
Another item i havent used [but i thought i should show you guys pics]
NARS “Hanamichi” – USD$65
Official Spill from NARS
“NARS interprets the dramatic Kabuki eye with a modern and magnificent palette of high-impact, richly saturated hues for highlighting, shading and lining the eye. Accompanied by a hand-spun, wisteria-wrapped Kabuki eye brush and encased in an elegant pouch.”
The gorgeous layout
I dont have any swatches for this.
I bought it with the intention of using it for a special event. [Hub's Best friend's wedding] However the event is not till next year so it will be forever before swatches are done XD
Note: This post would not have been possible without the help of Justine who bought me the tainted love set for birthday/christmas the year before and helped me buy the NARS Hanamichi. Thank you so much!
In my last post, i posted a pic of myself and i got loads of lovely comments [thankyou so much!!] and a lot of you asked abt the lashes and makeup i wore.
Thought i post some pics of what i used here.
The lashes
From Eyelure – tokyo lashes in “masako”
purchased in Hong Kong [SASA]
The eyeshadow
Sleek Palette – PPQ Me Myself and Eye [From the lovely Jian ]
Specifically, the SIMPLY RED shade
Hope this answers most of the queries you guys had!!
This is sort of a trying week for me. I dont know why but i cant seem to focus. Things that usually shouldnt take me a long time to do end up taking a huge amount of time. Is it the January blues? Thats what my bestie seems to think. He says its the realisation that the first month of the year is almost gone but you feel like you got nothing done.
Do you have January blues too?
XOXO Yumeko
p.s If you knit or sew, i hope you will consider joining this project.
The items made will be going to kids who are fighting cancer.
