L-R: Sex Fantasy, Deep Throat, Final Cut, Laguna
Aaaaaaah Nars, how I love you. I could genuinely sit and stare at this latest offering from Nars all day, every day. In true Nars form, a new limited edition blush palette has been released just before the festive holidays that always has beauty lovers in a bit of a frenzy…can they blame us though?
Firstly, let’s start on the packaging. White…and beautiful. Not the typical Nars packaging (which I do love for its sleekness) but come on, how dirty does that packaging get?! With this palette the packaging is still super sleek but on a whole new level. Despite being white (and did I say beautiful?) the palette is made of quite a strong, thick and durable feeling casing. The type that wont get grubby easily and if it falls, isn’t likely to smash into a million pieces. Included in the palette you get 3 blushes (Sex Fantasy, Deep Throat and Final Cut), 1 highlighter (Miss Liberty) and 1 bronzer (Laguna). I love how Nars has included cult favourite Laguna as well as a gorgeous champagne highlighter to accompany the 3 blushes because this makes it an ideal palette for travelling. The blush shades are all very different too which again makes it the perfect travel companion if you’re a bit indecisive like me. Of course no palette is complete without a limited edition shade and in this case we actually have two: Sex Fantasy, a cool toned light pink and Final Cut which is a gorgeous matte peachy coral.
I can definitely see me getting a lot of use out of this palette but one thing I feel I have to mention is the fact that the quality doesn’t feel the same as the single Nars shades. Now the quality is still great, but I just don’t feel they are on the same level as the singles. That said though, I would still repurchase this palette in a heartbeat and believe it is still good value for money. If you’re new to Nars and are looking to try out a few of their products for a fraction of the price then this may well be the one for you…I’d be quick though because this is set to be a sellout! It was released on 2nd November and is currently available to to purchase for £45 from Space NK here.
P.S. I do intend to share more of my thoughts on this palette on my Youtube channel (here) on Sunday so stay tuned for that but in the meantime I just wanted to let you know that this palette was available and show you some swatches because I don’t think it’ll be around for very long!
Will you be picking up the Nars Virtual Domination Cheek Palette?

Why are all Nars’ palette just so gorgeous?! Not good when you’re trying to cut down on makeup spending, especially when they’re limited edition and that makes you want them more!
