I wanted to try NARS eyeshadows because I read an article about them. I ordered two duo shadows. Since I got them, I've been experimenting with them to find the best ways to use them. My first impression was that they probably aren't worth the money, that the drugstore brands would work as well. I think the Madagascar pair are a nice combination and work very well for every day casual. I like cream eyeshadows and use a matching powder shade (Cover Girl) over them to set it.

Easy to apply but the color is very faint. That's okay for me since I'm as white as Casper. I use it as a base and add some other color.

Goes on smoothly and colors are good but can fade into fair-to-medium skin.

this is a great color combo. it's great for everyday but can be glammed up at night with some big lashes. another NARS favorite!

This is a beautiful shade for a cream duo eyeshadow. It glides smoothly and looks great for someone with brown eyes. The color to the right can be worn alone to get a smoky eye effect and the more you apply, the darker the color gets. It's worth every penny. I think it's the perfect everyday shade.

The color on the right is gorgeous, BUT it creases very easily. I don't even normally have a problem with cream shadows creasing/fading, but within an hour there was a very noticeable crease where my eyelid naturally creases... and this was with Urban Decay's primer potion applied under it!! The color in the picture above is also off... the left looks slightly pink, but in reality it is a beigey/taupe, and the color on the right looks like it has a hint of purple in it, but it is just a shimmery brown.

I have been searching for what seems like forever to find an eyeshadow, without gleam or glitter, that compliments my brown eyes. Since the shadow stick I was using from Clinique was discontinued 6 years ago. I prefer cream based eyeshadows rather than powder, because they don't emphasize wrinkles & are more flattering to someone my age (46), unless they have glitter in them. I also find them much easier to apply. I was hesitant to try this, but it is really nice! It isn't an aggressive overpowering color, it goes on nicely, doesn't settle into tiny lines and blends well into skin. It flatters my eye color. I would have given it 5 stars if it lasted longer. If you're in your 30's and beyond and have brown eyes and are a brunette, this will really compliment your eyes.

Absolutely gorgeous! Sheer, natural color glides and stays on beautifully. I use the nude color (left side) all over as a base and the bronze color (right side) over the lids and slightly into the crease for a natural day look. For evening, I use the bronze as a base from lid to under brow bone, and layer on NARS powder shadows. Recently wore the evening look to a black-tie event and pigment was just perfect, and photographed well.
