NARS Fall 2013 Blush Palettes Photos & Swatches


A Mecca Cosmetica bag can only mean one thing.. High end products that have burnt a whole in my purse!

I blogged about the NARS Fall 2013 Blush Palettes a couple months ago and I've been on the lookout for them in Australia ever since. THANK GOD Mecca got these in because I have been seriously lusting after these. They're surprisingly $69AUD each, I thought they'd be a bit more as they're $49 in the States. My boyfriend picked them up for me on Sunday the 20th October which is the date that Mecca said they'd be released.

 I was really surprised by the size of these palettes. I don't know - everything looks bigger in the pictures! I thought they would be larger than an average sized NARS blush but they're not. I've included a picture with A Revlon Lip Butter and a NYX round lipstick. Can you spot the false lash cut off? Yeah - I was doing makeup for a music video shoot and it must've fallen into the lipstick compartment of the kit haha.

NARS Fall 2013 Blush Palette & Current Wishlist

Oh NARS.... Why are you so expensive at Mecca Cosmetica in Australia? Why are you so expensive anyways? Most importantly - why are your blushes SO nice?! I've never splurged on a NARS blush but when seeing these limited edition palettes I think I'm going to have to shell out the $49 price tag for each of these..

Zen, Miss Liberty, Desire and Deep Throat are the four shades in this one.

Gilda, Albatross, Outlaw and Orgasm.

If these palettes make it to Mecca I'm thinking they would at least be $75. I'm not willing to pay that price so I'm thinking I'll be purchasing from Kiss and Makeup NY. With $9.95 flat rate worldwide shipping with American prices it's a really good deal. They sell a few other brands and I've put together a bit of a wish list below.



Laura Mercier Eyebrow Pencil in Auburn ($22), Smashbox Try It Kit Bestsellers ($19), NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Mysterious Red ($25) and Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage ($32).
