    Hi, I love the eyeshadow duo! Is Ramatuelle similar to Tzarine duo + 1 shade?

    The colors are gorgeous! Do the shadows have any fallout?

      No they don’t 🙂

    I want the Marie-Galante Duo so SO bad. I’m a no buy until after The Makeup Show Chicago.

      Aww no worries! Only the trio is limited edition so you got plenty of time 😉

    The duo is gorgeous! I love NARS duos. I wonder if I should add this one to my little collection!

    Is Buenos Aires gloss lip pencil peach beige rather than pink beige? Can you tell me what color it has?

    • Reply Phyllis April 17, 2012 at 9:44 pm

      Hi Jenn,

      Buenos Aires shows up more peachy than pink on me.

      Lol let me know if you want me to pick up anything for you 🙂

    Hi! What kind of brush do you use for highly pigmented Nars blushes?

    • Reply Phyllis April 17, 2012 at 4:27 pm

      I like to use a small brush like MAC 165 or 188 to gently buff the color in.

  • Reply Jenn April 17, 2012 at 9:21 am

    One more question.:)
    The third shade of the trio is oranger than I expected. Is it close to orange rather than apricot? Can you compare it with Night Star, Mediterranee or Scorching sun eyeshadow?
