harder at it than anyone.

he liked being famous. He said it gave him an aura.

SILVER FACTORY Aluminum

SOUP CAN Perfect red

flowers because he wanted to make something pretty. Decades later they still
look fresh, popping out of any background like a pretty face.

IT NAIL
POLISH Black violet
ORGASM
LARGER THAN LIFE LIP GLOSS Peachy pink with golden shimmer
Retail: $39. Available October 1 at Sephora and sephora.com
What do you guys think of this collection? Will you be picking any of the items up? For me, I am looking forward to Superstar, TV Party, and Soup Can, though I will probably wait until I see swatches before I make my final decision. :-)
I'll give all these a miss. Not because there aren't pretties amongst them, but because none of them are talking to me. I'm not that much into cremes - I usually cover the cremes that I have up with glitter. And Nars is a little bit too expensive to just cover up, in my opinion. :)
ReplyDeletehaha I totally know you and your glitters. :P

I'm so excited for this! Such a brilliant idea for a collection. I'm totally loving all things Nars right now anyway, lol. The polishes look amazing and I really want the Walk on the Wild Side set.
ReplyDeleteI agree, it seems like a really neat idea for a collection. I can't wait to see how the polishes look on nails. :-)

Gorgeous colors, Black Violet is amazing, but so is New Yourk Dolls and 15 Minutes...
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
I like Black Violet too! It looks gorgeous. :-)

i'm so looking forward to this collection!
ReplyDeletei just need to remind myself to get the things i'll actually use rather than just because of the name of the item &/or merely for collections sake.
Haha that's totally me too, but I'm also trying to be better. Sometimes I still get sucked into getting colors I won't wear, simply because the bottle is cute, or the color is pretty in the bottle, or it's a cute collection. :P
