Monsieur NARS, you're just too tempting...! part II

Bluuuushhhhh time! blushes are the core products NARS is commonly known and famous for.
his blushes are highly highly pigmented so a little goes a looong way,  velvety textured so apply evenly and never blotchy, the colours are vibrant and true to pan, the powders are finely milled so you can get the slightest hint of color on your cheeks or can build it up to just the intensity you see concentratet in the pan, they last all day, the selection is wide but not huge (so you still can get 'em all!), and lastly they are just addicting because none is like the other!
the latter is also the reason why i have twelve of them...

 

NARS blushes contain 4.5 - 4.8g each for the powder blushes, and 5.5g each for the cream blushes.
they cost 29€/19,5£/26$.
