    A great versatile eye shadow. Could be used a highlight or all over lid color. Creamy, lux texture, and beautiful coloring with a hint of pink to it. Definitely turns it more cool though, so...

    This is a beautiful grey-rose colour that is a bit shimmery in the pan. The packaging is adorable, just the regular NARS only small! So cute! This eyeshadow goes on like butter, and the...

    I received this in a swap. It is, indeed, a taupe with a hint of rose -- it's subtle but discernible on my NW15 skin, so it might not do much for darker skintones. It subtly brings out my green...

    I don't know why I always like taupe e/s, even though they don't really work for me. This color is a taupe with shimmer- very pretty in the pan. But when I put it on, it really doesn't show up at...

    Perfect neutral brown with just enough shimmer not to be flat. Great staying power, good for night and day and last ages.

    On me, yellow-olive MMM, this is a beige with the slightest rose tinge. Works fine as a base shadows, but by itself, it looks like I have nothing on and makes me look sick. If I try to build up...

    This is described by Nars as a Champagne Rose with shimmer but on me it looks like a heather colour. It is a very pretty colour that really brings out the colour in my green eyes. I like to pair...

    Neutral, very light pearly beige shade that maybe has some rose undertones in it, but looks pretty neutral next to "Nepal" (which is similar but has a more definite rosiness). The finish is glowy...

    I agree completely with Artbabe's color description. This shade is the most fabulous neutral I have come across. It tends to adjust itself or something to whatever other shades I am wearing, almost...

    I love this gorgeous neutral eyeshadow. It is described as "champagne rose" on the NARS website. I don't know what Mr. Nars drinks, but when I think of champagne, I think of a pale gold color. This...

    Dusky medium plum. Very similar to the purple shade in the Charade duo, but this has more shimmer. I would not buy both again. With a light touch, this can be a wash for daytime. It can also be...

    I have Cairo in the NARS Cool Palette. It's a light warm champagne color that is pretty flattering. I am using Cairo today in the crease with MAC's greensmoke on the lid and NARS' himalayas to...

    Cairo (IMHO) is NARS version of Stila puck and MAC satin taupe. It is slightly pinker than puck and slightly lighter than satin taupe, but it is a shimmery taupe shade that is in the same family...
