Prior to swatching the new NARS Matte Multiple collection this morning, this was my idea of a dream-come-true with multiples… 🙂

SUPER STOKED about this new line of matte cream blushes and bronzers! I’ll be putting them through their paces today and this weekend. For now, though, please partake of these pics and swatches.
All seven shades are available now at narscosmetics.com and coming to NARS counters next month.






Siam is so bright and beautiful! Do you think Cappadoce would be great to contour? (for NC30/NC35)
I was going to try and do that with Cappadoce right now, LOL! Great minds think alike. Will let ya know…
LOL thank you!! 🙂
Altai and Laos look great!
OOoooooooOoooh! Oh and not to forget: aaAaaaaaAaaaah…! These look so interesting, and the swatches look pretty amazing.
Siam and Cappadoce will be so hot for summer!
Siam is STUNNING! I’m hyperventilating a bit 🙂
I’ve been so looking forward to seeing these in action!! Thanks for posting this! 😀
Speaking of awesome, Altai might actually be light enough for me to try contouring with…
I love how these swatch!
Wooh! How bright is siam! Looking forward to your review! Specially the bronzers!
NARS says these can be used wet or dry. Anyway you can do some wet swatches for us? Pretty please! 🙂
I got Altai and Siam and really like them both. So different! Altai is barely there and great for shading. Siam is so vibrant! Can’t wait to hear your thoughts on them!!!
Altai is exciting because it might be good pale person conturing material.
Have you seen the application videos?
Siam is absolutely beautiful.
Siam is so gorgeous! Laos looks like a great shade too. I really want to check Cappadoce In person. It looks like I may be able to use it to contour but I want to make sure it’s really dark enough. Thanks for the swatches Karen!
Siam is so gorgeous! Laos looks like a pretty shade too. Ill have to check out Cappadoce in person. It looks like it’ll work as a contour but I need to make sure it’s dark enough. Thanks for the swatches Karen!
Not gonna lie….these look amazing. *drool*
The three contour shades are spot on color-wise.
And why it is that I can’t stop staring at Siam? And why do I want to wear it on my face? Oh, beautiful makeup…you siren, you.
Want them all except for Capaddoce which is probably too dark for my skin tone and Anguilla, too pale and too bright. The swatches are amazing. Genius idea from NARS.
Thanks for the hand swatches , Karen. I am really excited to see Altai, Cappodoce, and Ventiane in person on my NC42 complexion.
I’m trying out Altai first. I can’t wait until I have it! 🙂
They look gorgeous! Love Laos on you in the Face of the Day post!
So pretty! I would love using the darker ones for contouring if they blend well. I wonder how they last on the skin…I’m super oily and tend to avoid cream products but I may not be able to resist this. Lol!
As per usual you’re the best, Karen. Thank you so much for posting this! I saw the e-mail that these were available on nars.com this morning and have been searching the interwebs all day since looking for some good swatches. I’ll be passing on the blush colors but I must…have…Altai…now. I am blonde haired/blue eyed and very,very fair. We’re talking just a hint more color than Casper the friendly ghost. Beautiful as Laguna is it’s far too dark so I’ll be jumping on this new shade A.S.A.P
Exumas & Laos are the two I’m going to look at in person. These look great great & pigmented!
Good God Lady!!! How many cats do you own. This was my first reaction until I looked closer and saw it was just copies of one cat LOL
I love these shades, Altai is gorgeous. But regular multiples don’t have a great staying power on me, could you please let us know how these behave after a few hours? Tnx!
Laos is my fave, by far!
