Its safe to say that I was more than just a little excited about my latest purchase, and Nars really know how to keep a girl waiting. In all fairness several of the days I was left anticipating my arrival did include easter weekend, so I will let them off this time!!
Once the girl who coveted the whole purple eyeliner/eyeshadow combo (okay it was perhaps more of a lilac hmm), fast forward a good six years later, and im that girl that goes giddy over a good neutral shadow!! (oh how times change). from the look of bemusement on the boyfriends face when I happily unveiled my latest beauty, and the stern look I received from my brother for purchasing yet another palette, I dont think guys quite get the hype over neutral shades, that just "all look the same thing" to them (anyone else with me here?)
The Nars and god Created Woman palette includes 6 highly pigmented eyeshadows and the added bonus' of a smudge proof eye primer and shadow brush. The palette itself is teeny tiny (something I was prepared for after reading various reviews), im talking a little larger than a credit card, and a little smaller than my beloved iphone4s. However size really isin't an issue as its compact enough to be a convenient sidekick for travelling. Plus as my Nana would always say at the grand height of 4ft 10, "Sophie the best things come in little packages", and when it comes to this beautiful palette, boy is she right!
Nars and God created woman is ideal for creating a simple daytime look, aswell as a smokey evening one. With a perfect colour range, the palette incudes two matte shadows, Belissima (a light taupe with a slight hint of glitter) and Coconut Grove (a dark chocolate brown). Two shimmers Alhambra (peachy/pink gold, ideal for highlighting) and Kalahari (a coppery bronze), and the piece de resistance two micro glitters, Galapagos (a medium to light brown with serious gold glitter) and Night Clubbing (a black with beautiful gold flecks). The only little niggle I have is that there is slight fall out with the micro glitters, but nothing major!!
The Nars and God Created Woman palette, is limited edition, so its best to pick it up sooner rather than later. The beautiful must have (just call me an enabler) can be purchased via the Nars website aswell as SpaceNK.... Now on your marks, get set, goooo!!!!..
