芙蓉镇也勉强算serious art piece吧,中国人还会fan一个叫芙蓉镇的腮红不?

按照这个思路,小时候看的忍者神龟,神龟们叫米开朗琪罗、达芬奇。。。谁敢说能比它们更serious art的。但好像没人认为,忍者神龟传递了artistic attitude吧

汗,不是存心抬杠的。其实那些电影都是经典老电影,很多我自己都喜欢。女人觉得这些名字有意思而更喜欢这个产品也挺正常的。但一定要拔高觉得起了这些名字就代表着文化底蕴啥的就太牵强了。何况大部分中国人会觉得这些特有文化,只是因为我们对western culture不够了解而已。

确实说不上代表任何文化底蕴。这个太heavy。。
 
just the pretty icing on the cake...would you buy a cake without icing?... I know I won't...
 
NARS取名字还是比较小心的。。没有类似芙蓉镇那种feeling的。。
 
attitude这东西。。就是见仁见智吧。。

Thanks, and big hug!
 
Multiples are tricky product, some ppl love them to death, some hate them. =)  I think a light hand with NARS blush is always helpful.
 
I love luster and DT.  I see that you have three blushes all in coral family.  maybe you are warm toned mm. =))  Try a cool tone detour for your next splurge?
 
I Love love love NARS products' names.  I think it is why the brand is strong enough to cultivate a cult. =D
 
The splurge deserves some silver lining, doesn't it? =)))
 
Just like the pretty icing on a cake. =)   Without it, the cake is not the same cake anymore.
 
Hi so glad to see your response to my post! Hug hug. :)
 
I do think I'm warm toned (but I'm not mm, I'm in mid-30s with 2 kids, hehe). Every beauty adviser said Chinese were all warm toned... I didn't realise all the blushes I got were coral. I bought them after I did some research at MUA and Arora's blog. I picked these as I thought they were flattering colours suitable to almost all skin colours as claimed by many make up experts.
 
Well I do plan to get more, could you please give some suggestions? I don't know my skin colour in MAC-terms. I think I'm quite fair in Chinese, but obviously not as fair as Arora. Haven't seen your picture (is that you on your signature? So cute and pretty!), so I don't know how fair you are. In GA LSF foundation, I was using 4 and Estee Lauder Double Wear I use Fresco. I was very tempted to get MAC Gentle, but couldn't decide whether that's similar to the ones I have got. I only started learning make up stuff after I was 30, so I'm a bit of a learner. Would love to hear your tips!
 
Regarding NARS names, I would love to keep reading this thread and learn more about them. Thanks to you for letting me see other side of NARS.
 
As for the negative comments, don't worry about them. We are the masters of our own minds and moods. Can't let others dictate how we feel. Be happy!

My best friend is a cool tone chinese.  I can see the blue tone from her veins underneath her skin.  any blue reds are stunning on her. However, any warm reds are off for her.

I am yellow tone. not really warm, since there is no red tone out of my skin. =).  Yes, the icons I use for Hell and Chic are myself.

For cool tone blushes, I think Crazed is a great one.  MAC Gentle would be similar and also a great great blush (it is very cool).  Mata Hari is more cotton pinkish (a bit warmer).  Would be nice cool tone addition too.

I am approaching 30.  No kids but have a very very busy job.  I guess I am pretty hooked by NARS.   =) thanks for saying what you said.  =) After a certain stage, you can only mind a few things in life.  nothing else bothers.

I will check out Crazed next time. But I think this is a very pigmented one. I don't want to buy any pigmented blush because I don't have MAC 187 brush. I only use a normal blush brush.

I should have got Gentle, damn. It was 15% off and I was hesitating. Well if I still think about it after Christmas, I will just go and get it.

Arora also recommended Mata Hari, saying it's a flattering colour. But I'm a bit scared of pink colour because I don't want to be a mutton dressed like lamb, haha. But I do like pink lip gloss and lipstick. When I was younger, I was into bright red or dark red and missed out all the pinks. Now that I'm getting older, I'm so interested in pink!

As for kids, no rush! I had my first when I was 32. Just enjoy the life, freedom, and NARS.... while you can. Life is totally different with kids, so it's good to be really prepared and ready.

DT偏亚光一些的水红色

O带很多金粉。比DT稍稍偏橘色。。也许是金粉的反射。。

我觉得肤色不均匀的人DT其实更flattering。。

O的shimmer不好说。。有很多人觉得上脸以后不好看。。如果她们皮肤太cool tone,我会推荐DT > O.

I will check out Crazed next time. But I think this is a very pigmented one. I don't want to buy any pigmented blush because I don't have MAC 187 brush. I only use a normal blush brush.

I should have got Gentle, damn. It was 15% off and I was hesitating. Well if I still think about it after Christmas, I will just go and get it.

Arora also recommended Mata Hari, saying it's a flattering colour. But I'm a bit scared of pink colour because I don't want to be a mutton dressed like lamb, haha. But I do like pink lip gloss and lipstick. When I was younger, I was into bright red or dark red and missed out all the pinks. Now that I'm getting older, I'm so interested in pink!

As for kids, no rush! I had my first when I was 32. Just enjoy the life, freedom, and NARS.... while you can. Life is totally different with kids, so it's good to be really prepared and ready.


Compared with nars blushes, MAC ones are a lot cheaper and as pretty.  I once got GEntle but swapped it away.  I thought it was a bit too cool for me.  (I miss it a lot though since it is too pretty...i think I will swap it back soon :P)
 
Among the cotton pink ones, I think Mata Hari is better suited for warm skin mms than desire or Angelika.  I agree the hot pink is not as sophisticated, but nice to have one blush of the cotton pink family... in case you are in the mood. =) 
 
As for lippies, reds are always more classic. I totally agree.  Pink ones now are fantasies for me.  I love schiap and funny face.  They are ridiculous colors. =)
 
Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts on kids.  =))))  The topic is hot around my age and among my friends.. I think no matter how clearly one sees the difference in the life styles, it is still all about the experience..to experience...=))))

Brazil is more vivid.

Bohemian gold is relatively more neutral. 

I would recommend Bohemian gold.  It is easier to handle than Brazil.

现在终于有机会买到一些停产的色号了,已经决定买ireland,babylon,marienbad,magambo,arctic,blue angel
这几个:new delight,pacifica,calypso,dream lover,哪个还值得收呢?是不是这几个颜色都不大显色呢?
感觉pacifica喝paris很像,marienbad和jezebel也很像。。。

paris's matte grey looks like dark navy.  For some reason, it shows up navy on my lid.   The white side is silver not icy blue.

marienbad is a lot more neutral than jezebel once applied.  It is better than Jezebel if you are on a neutral, subtle, demure kick. 

But I agree they are utterly similar.

Calypso is a great duo. Very unique and flattering. it is one of my fav. 

Dream lover is nice if you have very pale skins.  Might not show up on >NC20.  I don't have new delight.

only one....en.....orgasm can rule out DT, torrid, super o; sin can rule out oasis, outlaw...crazed can rule out cool tone blushes at this time..

among exhibit A, mounia, taos, DV (reds), I would recommend exhibit A; among luster, madly, sertao, lovejoy (neutral shimmers) i would recommend luster first. 

If you are cool tone, Exhibit A first ; if you are warm tone, Luster first. 

=) my 2 cents

谢谢MM回答的这么详细~~~
 
EA不会太红么?...因为我平常都不怎么化妆, 担心刷太突出的腮红会不自然呢.......
另外我现在还没有在上班...所以不太想要太成熟的颜色~~总觉得luster和类似的neutral色给人感觉会比较成熟?.....
但是desire之类的candy pink也不适合我....不走可爱路线的......
有人和我推荐过DV, MM觉得合适么? 我看着颜色挺成熟的...而且我想要一块和我其他的腮红颜色差别比较大的~~DV符合吗?~
...发现我真挑剔.......

no, DV was actually my choice if I were you. =))))))))  Go for it!

I suggest Luster and EA since they are unique, very different from what you have.  But DV would be more flattering.  DV is most sophisticated brick red IMHO.  My HG blush. 

Luster is not mature looking.  It is high shine and peachy.  Lovejoy and madly are mature indeed.

Desire, angelika or mata hari are not the best choices precisely for the reason you said.

EA is not that red with light hand... It is orange-ish red... the tomato color... so it is very brightening, brighten up your face even if a light hand.
