    Every time I try a nars shadow I am always underwhelmed. Maybe my expectations need to come down....hahahaha... The matte color is more of a gray shade which I kind of like but the brighter purple...

    I adore the Nars duos. I have around 5 or 6 of them. There is a certain playfulness to them in this day and age of massive palettes: the fun pairings, some totally wacky and unexpected, but you can...

    I only review the left sight of this duo which is a matte light purple with some greyness. I actually use it from Nars 9951 palette. I love this color. I have neutral towards warm light white...

    I probably would buy this product again if I ever ran out of it. I have hazel eyes and purple just works for me. The brighter shade has a very subtle shimmer and if worn on the mobile lid, over my...

    This is my 3rd NARS duo ( I have Alhambra & Underworld). I really wanted to wear purple eyeshadow but most other purple eye shadows are way to bright and not subtle enough for me. The violet colors...

    Unique shades, very pigmented. The price is OK £23.50 for 4g. Not bad considering the smart container with a large mirror and how fab these colours are. Lilacs and violets are tricky colours....

    This duo is more of a "quiet" purple, so I can understand the negative reviews here that say people were looking for more vibrant, louder shades. For me, though, that's what sold me; the purples...

    This is a really pretty subtle look that is great for day. If you want a more intense sparkly violet color try mac violet pigment. I like this duo for a pretty understated look.

    I have always wanted to get the Tokyo duo. But when I swatched this in person, Violetta is so much more interesting than Tokyo. The matte smokey lavender shade on the left is almost exactly like...

    I was lemming the Violetta duo ever since my first visit to a live Nars counter. The purple shade is exactly what I gravitate towards - a pretty purple with some shimmer and a little bit of unique...

    The color combo is lovely on me - NC15/Blue Eyes. The darker purple is a much nicer texture than the matte one. You can work with the matte but it's not as easy and there are definitely better...

    I'm not sure why people are saying that this duo is not very pigmented. The shadows are super pigmented, but they just happen to be very soft colors. I use the matte shade on the lid and the...

    The pigment is definately a little weak in this duo. A matte light lavender shade and a shimmery lilac, soft purple. Really pretty shades but both are very sheer so you really need to add alot. ...

    NARS is one of my favorite brands ever, but this duo just did not amaze me. I bought it online at Sephora.com because I though the colors looked beautiful, but I found that texture of this...

    Gorgeous duo on my yellow-olive toned LLL/MMM skin. I can wear the metallic side alone, but think the colors are best used together. The matte, violet/gray shadow works as a great base for the...

    Over Penelope or Pearl Beach cream, the Violetta duo has a very wearable violet quality! Violet can be overly goth, this duo is just other-worldly pretty!

    I wish i could give this a 3.5. I LOVE the right metallic shade. Its a light perfectly metallic violet. The other side is a chalky looking paler violet that actually blends out to be deeper than...
