Behold the Nars Unfiltered I Palette and All Its Glory!

The lust I had for the Nars Unfiltered I Palette ($59.00) was so real. When it became available over the Sephora VIB sale, I was like, yessssssssss must have it. But then it sold out and my life abruptly ended. Well, maybe not that serious but I was pretty bummed out about it. And then, behold! It came back around and I scooped it up immediately.

My skin type

I have warm, oily skin with yellow undertones.

How I use it

As this is a blush palette, I use it with a fluffy blush brush to build the color. For a more intense look, I use a tapered blush brush that really just gets after the color. One or two layers at most is all I need with the tapered brush.

I like to apply my blush on the apples of my cheeks and all the way up to my temples. I have applied my blush like this for forever and I love the way it looks on me. I sometimes mix a couple of the colors together, like Chic for contour and Out There for my main blush. It’s absolutely beautiful.

Performance

Colors:

Watch Me (opalescent gold sheen)

Me First (apricot sheen)

Takeover (copper rose sheen)

Out There (deep russet matte)

Chic (rich raspberry matte)

Exhibit A (red matte)

All of the colors swatch beautifully and apply even more beautifully on my skin. I don’t need much for the coverage I prefer and it lasts all day. The highlighters in the palette are also beautiful. I find that Takeover needs a good little push, but Watch Me and Me First apply effortlessly to my skin tone. Use a light hand with Exhibit A because it can get real clown-like real fast. My favorites are Out There, Chic, and Watch Me.

I have never been a huge fan of blush because I most of the time, many of the colors look the same on me. This palette has totally changed my mind. I have always had a strong preference to Nars blushes, but the competition, in my opinion, cannot hold a candle to this palette!
