This just popped on my doorstep two seconds ago. What do you think? I’m a neutrals girl, so I’m all over it. 🙂

Total fabulousness, and gonna be worth a splurge for me!!!
love it!
This looks beautiful! I might just have to splurge on this.
Yes. this is one I would buy. Love.
pretty cute! but ugh on the price…
No kidding! For that amount the pan should be twice as big, for reals.
I’m with Tiffany. Love the colors but the price is a bit high!
gorgeous, but i’m with tiffany. the price is a bit of a mood killer. i’ve always wanted to try NARS but the price just always gets to me :p
I want! Got a call from my Nordy’s NARS manager and they got them in today. I want a few gloss pencils too. Agree that the price is a bit steep–$35 would be better Francois, eh?
Gorgeous! (Neutrals girl as well) Let’s hope it swatches/comes out well!
I’ve been anxiously awaiting this trio and hope to get mine sometime tomorrow! 🙂 I passed on the Okinawa trio (although it is lovely), and was happy when I saw this new one being offered for Spring. Hope to get a lot of use out of it. 🙂
This looks so pretty! But really I just can’t stop going to the Sephora homepage and staring at Francisco Nars. He’s so beautiful… lol, I’m a crazy.
I met him in person and he’s very handsome:

Yeah… I quoted Wind Beneath My Wings (slaps palm on forehead).
I am so jealous. I can’t believe he’s (probably) 40-something. He looks so young! I would have totally been starstruck, too.
swatches Plz!!
Calanque looks gorgeous! I was able to swatch it and look at briefly, To me the creme color didn’t seem as pigmented. I am still going to purchase it, you can get a lot of use out of these beautiful neutrals!
Thats a little too pricey.. and they are pretty general shadow colors.
WANTS! Can’t wait to see your review xoxox
Hi, i’m new to your blog and love it! Anyways, I was wondering… How in the world do you get the shadows to stay so clean? Every time i use calanque, I am a glittery mess (thanks to the lightest shade)
I am on the fence about returning it. I bought sephoras glitter glue primer to make it work, and i still manage to get fallout. I love the two other shades though. Do you have any recommendations for dupes?
Hi Shrnarch,
I start with NARS Pro Prime (it seems to get the shadow to stick better to my lids), then I I buff the glittery shade out with a MAC 217, which seems to mellow out the glitter. Also, I do my eye makeup first — I clean up any excess fallout with a makeup wipe and then apply foundation, concealer, powder, etc.
