I love NARS. It never fails. Each season NARS finds ways to lure me in. I went to a NARS event at Holt's last week to see and test out the new Holiday collection....and of course, I ended up with a few goodies.
This time round my makeup was done by the talented -- and hilarious -- Christopher who is a NARS trainer from Toronto. We had a blast -- his sense of humour is wicked and I couldn't stop laughing. I loved how he did my makeup. Again, I forgot my camera. But here's the look in the evening in front of my overflowing closet.
He used Sheer Glow foundation in Barcelona, a Multiple (can't remember which), and some products from the Holiday collection. I was a good little makeup junkie and only selected a few of the products versus getting it all.
In any case, here's what I ended up with: Brousse eyeshadow duo (love love love love this!); Pop Life Velvet Lip Pencil (gorgeous orange/red colour); Babe lipgloss (gorgeous over Pop Life). And that's it. See I had a bit of self control this time, no?
I love Pop Life -- such a perfect wearable read. Since it is a matte velvet pencil you do have to make sure your lips are in perfect condition as it will show any flakies etc. I love it paired with Babe lipgloss which looks scary in the tube but is a sheer buildable red. I wore this combo all weekend.
As for Brousse, it is amazing and I will do a separate post on it since I love it so much.

Gorgeous!
I wanna do a NARs haul soon but I'm waiting for a good GWP at Holts just like last year. They included a makeup bag/mini skincare kit and a blush brush ($70 value)....hopefully there's something different this year. =)
@Sara: Thanks sweetie!
@Zerin: I did get a GWP (three mini lipglosses and a lip gloss duo) but maybe they'll have another down the road. Let me know if you hear of anything coming up!
@yorkiesluv: the collection is fantastic! definitely worth seeing.
Oooh, pretty. Brousse is on its way to me; I might need that lip pencil as well. x
You look so adroable - good haul!
@Grace: Thank you! Look forward to seeing what you think about Brousse.
the lighting in my FOTD is so poor and I think I look tired - LOL. That's what I get for doing it so late in the night
You know what, I still don't have any NARS yet! Love this look on you though - that lip is awesome!
I'm wondering why this post is up already. I scheduled it for Tuesday and it is still only Monday in Toronto! Weird.
@Catherine: ooh you should check out NARS esp. blushes !
Great look! Coral is such a great colour on you, very fresh ♥
This is my fave look yet!! It's so natural and gorgeous!!
These shades are amazing on your lips! :))
Can't wait about the Brousse post! ;)

@Jamilla and @Tina: thank you!!I'd like to do another FOTD as I think the lighting here doesn't show the brightness of this combo.
Gorgeous!
