The Day in Beauty Vol. 20: The New $49 NARS Survival Kit 2, Connor Claire Cuteness and Wine for Yo' Cat - Makeup and Beauty Blog
We made information technology to Saturday, babe! Dandy job. 🙂 Wherever you lot are, I hope you lot have a nice weekend lined upward.
I felt like switching up my makeup game today because I've been all about black eyeliner, beige and chocolate-brown lids and nude lips lately. I love that look (information technology's like shooting fish in a barrel), but I felt like doing something different, hence the NARS Survival Kit 2 ($59), the 2d of two new limited edition sets coming soon from NARS (July 1 exclusively to NARS counters at Nordie'south). This 1 comes with ii eyeshadows, two blushes, a mini gloss and a mini mascara.
This ane incorporates color in a fresh way with everyday shades that aren't intimidating, but also aren't really typical of nude/neutral looks.
Start with Tokyo Two Eyeshadow, a calorie-free satiny violet, which creates an absolutely gorgeous wash of color on the lids, ya know, if y'all don't take a lot of time to get ready and you lot desire to wear color, I recall Tokyo II is a great style to go. Hither I apace buffed it on my lids with a domed brush and composite out the edges with a tapered brush.
Rich, warm ruby brown Galapagos, which is one of my accented favorite NARS shadows, has tiny flecks of gilt glitter. It too makes an advent in the palette in this kit.
And then pretty and then much hotness in smokey eyes, especially with a black base under it. Here, though, I decided to keep it elementary, since I only gave myself 20 minutes to get ready this morning time, so I used Galapagos as a liner by wetting an angled castor (the NARS #47, which I think is THE Best angled castor for winged liner!), so applied Galapagos on my upper lash lines.
Wetting the brush intensifies the shadow and makes the dark-brown richer and yummier and more milk chocolatey…and too makes the gold flecks really come through.
Of the two blushes in this kit, Modesty and Daydream, Daydream is a satiny mid-toned peachy pink kinda similar NARS Orgasm, only without the gilt shimmer running through it. Sometimes I like colors like Daydream a little more than than Orgasm, to exist honest, considering they don't come with the same shimmery gold drama.
I mean, Orgasm's really pretty also, merely if you're having a "large pore day," it's not always like shooting fish in a barrel to vesture.
And Modesty works well as a warm gold beige highlighter. I only need to use a picayune because it's pretty shimmery and intense.
The kit also comes with a juicy, plummy red gloss called Phantasia. It'due south so pigmented that it'south almost like wearing a liquid lipstick, but the glossy aspect of the gloss subsides over a few hours, leaving behind a soft stain.
Of course yous can wear the pieces in this palette separately, but I also like wearing them all together, because they're colorful AND wearable, which is very much my style.
I think Connor likes it, too!
