The collection that I have been waiting for ever since the beginning of the spring collection releases! I have always loved NARS and go through phases where I buy tons of the stuff from them and I have a feeling that with the release of this new collection that one of these phases is beginning again. Lately i have been buying blushes, lipstick, and nail polishes and NARS made great shades in every single one of these products especially blushes. It doesn't matter that I just ordered a few new blush shades from Illamasqua, I will still find some that I want from this collection and will end up buying many of these too. When I first look at the collection page, I immediately see some great pink shades, one of my favorite new trends for the spring season.

And from this collection I want...blush, nail polish, and lipstick! It looks like NARS will just continue to fuel my obsession with these products. My favorite piece of the collection is the Gaiety blush shade, I love the bright pink and this will be very flattering with my skintone. My other favorites are the Diamond Life Nail Polish and the Pure Matte Lipstick in Valparaiso (I think this is the shade that the model for the collection is wearing), this shade will be wasy to wear all year round and could easily become a staple in my collection. I think that the Trio Eye Shadow is very pretty and I would like to add it to my collection but it's not the end of the world if I don't buy it.
The rest of the collection is a bit too warm for me, especially the new Lipstick shade so I can safely skip on the rest of the collection. I love NARS and this collection will be ushering in another phase of major NARS shopping. Also NARS is coming up on the first anniversary of the opening of their first flagship store in New York City so I am hoping that this company might bring out something special to celebrate!
