The only few criticisms that I have for this palette is that I’m missing a good inner corner highlight shade and that the shimmers are a bit muted for my personal liking. I also think the bigger pans for the mattes are a good idea, because I can definitely see myself wearing an all matte eyeshadow look using only one of these shades. I really like that it has a nice variety of cool, warm and neutral shades. I think it has a beautiful combination of shades, which I can see work for all skin types. Combined with the NARS eyeshadow formula, I find this palette to be pretty amazing. I’m a huge nude eyeshadow palette lover so I have to say that I’m very biased to these kind of shades. Even though these are very pigmented, I wish the shimmers would have a slightly stronger, reflective effect.įor this eyelook, I used the shade TAUNT as an overall base, SOPHIA in the crease and bottom lid, WHIPPED to deepen the crease, on bottom lid and on the inner and outer 3rd of the lids, BASIC INSTINCT in the middle of the upper and lower lid, CENTERFOLD in the center of the lid on top of BASIC INSTINCT and as an inner corner highlight and COCONUT GROVE to deepen the outer parts of the lids. They’re one of my favorite eyeshadow formulas but I do have to say that I normally like a more intense, foiled type of finish for my metallic/shimmery shadows. Overall, I love the new formula of the NARS eyeshadows. That shade is very “smokey” so it applies less pigmented and a bit patchy.

The eyeshadows feel soft, are pigmented and swatched evenly, except for the shade Coconut Grove. Here are the swatches of the NARS Skin Deep Eye Palette shades, swatched from left to right, top to bottom. The other eight pans are smaller, contain 1.4 gram each and are what I consider, a regular pan size. The first row has bigger pans containing matte shades that are 3.5 grams each and in theory, are more frequently used shades. Opening NARS Skin Deep Eye Palette reveals twelve eyeshadows and a mirror. It does look modern and luxurious like all the “standard” packaging from the brand. It looks beautiful at first but it gets dirty with fingerprints and eyeshadow almost immediately. I have a love/hate relationship with the velvet matte type of packaging NARS is known for. The NARS Skin Deep Eye Palette is made of a sturdy plastic material and a velvet matte black exterior combined with champagne gold metallic details. For today’s post, I’m going to review the NARS Skin Deep Eye Palette. Each eyeshadow can be used in a variety of ways, subtle to smokey to create your perfect nude look. The eyeshadows consisting of rich mattes, lustrous shimmers and smoldering metallics are infused with the NARS Pigment Powder Suspension technology for a high-impact effect. NARS has launched the Limited Edition Skin Deep Eye Palette, the ultimate nude palette created for all skin tones.
