NARS X Sarah Moon Holiday Collection - Mind Game Velvet Lip Glide Set
Hello you beautiful people,
and happy new year to all of you! My first post in the new year, I can't even believe that we are already in 2017! This year so much is going to change and school will be over soon completely for me! Anyways, if you are into makeup and especially liquid lipsticks, then this one is for you! So just grab yourself a cuppa, get comfy and keep on reading!
NARS never ceases to surprise me with their stunning collections and quality. Everything they bring out is so well-designed, well-made and really well thought through before that. When they launched their new Holiday16 collection in collaboration with the amazing photographer Sarah Moon, everyone went nuts over it! And that without a doubt, for a very good reason. The entire collection is so beautiful and surprisingly big, as usually in these seasonal collections you only find a few new things.
These liquid lipsticks are nothing alike I have tried so far and most certainly nothing that you can find a second time anywhere. Their name "velvet lip glides" is the most suitable way to describe what they are. Definitely not your typical type of liquid lipstick as they go on so smoothly and feel like a lipgloss at first, though a very highly pigmented lipgloss if I might add. But they dry down a little bit to a semi-matte finish whilst remaining a shiny coat.
Due to them having a velvet finish, they are not even close to being as drying as a normal matte liquid lipstick would be and are actually quite moisturising.
Three of the shades you can find in the permanent collection already which are Bound, Unspeakable and Toy along with three new limited edition shades Chez Claude, N°675 and Plato's.
Bound
Chez Claude
The berry toned red shade out of the collection. You just can't go wrong with a deep berry red, can you? They are perfect for the Autumn season and still, you can rock them threw out the whole of Wintertime as well!
N°675
Your classic and cult red. If you don't own a true red shade with a slight cherry undertone well then you might as well have found it now! Absolutely beautiful and without a doubt suitable for every time you want to crack out a red.
Unspeakable
This must be the most perfect shade for Spring time as it has such a gorgeous cherry tone! On a closer look, you can see that it has the slightest hint of a berry undertone, though it's hardly detectable! I am definitely going to rock this shade a lot in Spring!
Plato's
A deep berry shade which is just absolutely stunning and gorgeous in ever way! I love these kinds of shades so much as they suit everyone and everything.
Toy
The darkest out of them all and the trickiest to put on. But with its purple undertone, it must be a perfect shade for Halloween time, though you could definitely wear this on every night out too! It probably lasts a bit longer if you mattify it by pressing a thin layer of tissue over your lips and dusting some loose setting powder over the top!
The set retails for £32.00 in total which, in all honesty, I don't think is a lot for what you get. Due to its popularity, it's sold out at the moment but make sure to check their website daily until they bring it back in stock! It's definitely one to try out and I love the finish of it!
