nars afterglow eyeshadow palette

Product Information

I ended up hauling the holiday Studio 54 Hyped Palette over Christmas and find it more wearable and neutral for my neutral-loving self compared to this spring’s Afterglow Eyeshadow Palette. I definitely don’t have ANY palette in my stash that is similar and I think it’s a really good palette. Create a variety of cheek looks, from subtle shimmer to bold matte, with six shades that deliver a natural rush of color. To apply I’ve been using 1 highlighter and 1 blush each time I wear although you can certainly mix/layer colors.

I also thought the shade was too similar to ‘shadow hill’ which has a better texture and they could have maybe done with a really nice darker brown like their infamous (and my favourite) coconut-grove kinda vibe.

Some of the warmer yellow ones were nice to layer and warm up other shadows even if I don’t see myself wearing alone. I’d love to know your thoughts on this palette and if you think it’s something that you would invest in?I think it’s hard to pick one over the other because they’re both great, although I have found myself reaching for the NARS more. My favourite shades are hot line, crushed, made love, deep cut , shadow hill, push, guayaquil it and bayader 1.

For the really deep smokey-brown and gold look, I did use coconut grove to add depth and smoke as there isn’t quite enough in the Afterglow palette alone. HOWEVER* I clapped eyes on the new NARS Afterglow palette on Cher Webb’s instagrama couple of weeks ago and I was in lust. So many of you have asked whether the NARS Afterglow Lip Balms are better than the Dior Addict Lip Glows.Like I said I haven’t been this excited about a palette for a very long time, so it can be easy to be a little disappointed when you hype it up for yourself like I did (!

Occasionally you get a slightly rogue matte formula and one of them for me was a little ‘off’ which is the ‘whipped’ shade.

Next, there's the cheek palette, which is just as cute, with six face powders, blushers, bronzers and highlighters all included. There appears to be 3 different eyeshadow finishes from my self-appointed-expert-opinion (be wary) which is matte, metallic and then a really pretty multi-faceted shimmer.At this point I will not have time to review the holiday one but if you can check it out I highly recommend doing so!
