SHADE – EURYDICE – Electric Aubergine / Graphite , Price $ 35 + TAX , Size – 4 gm
Its almost 6 months that I posted any NARS REVIEWS – last one was on JANUARY 7th, not that my NARS craze has dropped down, it’s just that there are very few posts since last 3 months and before I post the new NARS products I acquired I thought let me share my love for the ones I own and use often . I have tried just a few NARS eyeshadows and so far I had good experience with them, they are good but not value for money so now I have almost stopped buying these. The last eyeshadow that I picked from NARS was EURYDICE DUO – shared in this HAUL, from their permanent line.
The duo weighs 4 gm and are priced at 2300/- INR, 575/- INR per gm approximately.
The plumy purple side has super soft micro shimmer in bluish purple and silver, once you apply it on to the lids, shimmer just disappears and you get dull plum shade, if you use a strong base underneath then only the shimmer shows – the key is to pack on rather using a fluffy brush.
The graphite side is gray with blue silver shimmer; I find gray side more intense and the purple side with above average pigmentation. They both look more vibrant with primer, without primer they don’t show up nicely on lids. I find the colours are hard to dupe, the quality is also exceptional with grey shade, though purple is tough to work with and paying 2 k for 2 shades is certainly steep.
It is gorgeously pigmented duo and layers opaque in very few layers, there is very slight fall out that can be cleaned with wet wipe or a water based makeup remover. If you are fond of Smokey eye looks then this may definitely surprise you, the grey shade is exceptionally beautiful and you can see the eye look created using the single shade in pictures below.
And here is how the color looks on my eyes :
On Scale of 1 – 10, I would give this 8 – I love the duo and especially the grey side, purple side is beautiful to look at but getting true to pan shade is little difficult. Both are super soft and blend easily with any shade but the palette is not value for money.
I hope you find the review helpful ?
