These were my first ever NARS purchases, I\u2019ve always been wanting to buy some NARS but the products are a bit on the expensive side. The multiple is \u00a329 usually, which is a lot of money for something you\u2019ve never tried before. In the end, I spotted these two products on a blog sale and snapped them up \u2013 almost unused, too. This products have made me a massive NARS fan, so I\u2019m currently browsing ASOS for a little something else, maybe a blush.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I bought the Lamu Multiple, I\u2019ve always been after a Multiple \u2013 a multipurpose stick for cheeks, lips, eyes and body. Lamu is described as a glazed apricot with a golden sparkle. It\u2019s a bit like a bronzer actually and the gold sparkle was quite obvious when I put it on my cheeks, a bit much for daytime but gorgeous for evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was actually surprised about this product because although its a stick, it comes out dry and really easy to blend \u2013 more like a powder. I was expecting it to be sticky like a lipstick but it\u2019s so lovely and blendable. The swatches above show the Lamu multiple and then also it blended in the next picture. Such a gorgeous product, it would look gorgeous on tanned skin so perfect for summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I reckon I would probably use this most as a highlighter\/bronzer on my cheekbones for when I\u2019m going out, but also maybe on my eyes. I can imagine this looking gorgeous on darker skin, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second NARS product I got was the Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Roman Holiday, a lovely light pink. After my encounters with the Topshop lip pencils I thought this would also be quite drying on my lips especially as it\u2019s quite a light colour. This is a lot more moisturising than the Topshop lipsticks, my dry lips don\u2019t need so much prep and the colour doesn\u2019t show up so much of the dryness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The colour is lovely too, I love light pink lip colours. I never expect lip products to stay on for long (probably because i\u2019m constantly eating\u2026) but this is actually quite long lasting.
It\u2019s really easy to apply, the pencil nib makes it easy to get a nice lip shape especially around the cupids bow and the colour glides on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve really been converted to a NARS obsessive, the packaging is absolutely gorgeous \u2013 so classic and simple. The colours are both gorgeous and the quality is excellent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
