This is a review of the new Nars set, 'And God Created the Woman'. The set includes a palette of 6 eyeshadows, an eyeshadow primer, and a #3 eyeshadow brush.
The colors in the palette are Alhambra, Kalahari, Bellisima, Galapagos, Coconut Grove, and Night Clubbing. The eyeshadows are the perfect neutral colors, with a good variety. My personal favorite is Bellisima. They are 0.03 ounces, making them a little less than half the size of a typical 0.07 Nars eyeshadow. They are the quality you expect from Nars. The softer colors have less pigment than the darker colors on the bottom half of the palette. I would have posted swatches, but when I swatched them, they did not do the colors justice. The colors apply a lot more pigmented than they swatch.
The eyeshadow primer is wonderful: creamy, luxurious, and ensures your shadow lasts all day. After I filmed the tutorial, I wore the look for another 12+ hours with no creasing or fading. It keeps my eyeshadow intact when I'm at school all day as well. It's superb!
The brush is so soft. I wasn't expecting much since it was a free little brush, but it is very high quality. It is soft and durable. I like using it for blending shadows all over and with my highlight. It is a great little added bonus in this already fantastic set.
Be sure to watch my tutorial to see how I got the look:
