Verdict: I recently realized that I don't own any eye shadows from NARS. I am a huge fan of the brands blushes but for some reason I never gravitated towards their eye shadow palettes. I actually ended up buying this palette for work and decided to play around with it to see if it was any good. The palette is a nice update to the typical nude palette. The shadows were easy to blend and had a great texture. This palette is great for creating both day and night looks and their was a nice variety of matte, shimmer, and metallic shades. Overall the shades in this palette were lovely but I could have done without so many brown eye shadow shades. A few of the brown shades were too similar however I was impressed by the quality of these shadows and could see myself picking up a NARS palette in the future.
