NARS Cyprus mono eyeshadow is also one of my newer NARS acquisitions from allcosmeticswholesale.com.
normally NARS singles cost 24€/16.50£/23$ for 2.2g, i paid around 18$ for Cyprus.
it comes in a cute sturdy compact of rubberized plastic. i like the functional but edgy packaging.
Cyprus is a taupey beige which leans gold. it has beautiful very fine pink and white microshimmers. the texture is fine and silky and it just glides on to my lids to create an even finish. it's very easy to blend and looks good on its own with a thick liner or as a blending colour for darker looks, a versatile neutral shade. it gives my lids a silky sheen and is a perfect "my lids but a shade darker"-colour of the moment. like most other NARS shadows, this stays all day on me without creasing or fading.
looks great as subtle eyeshadow when you wear a vivid red lip.

Sorry but your make up looks always the same. Really boring
ReplyDeletewell, i'm an everyday girl and this is a subtle neutral shade, so what do you expect? fireworks and diamonds?
ReplyDeletea subtle make up is the best way to demonstrate this shade, of course one could also combine it with pinks and blues, but then it's just a marginal colour that will be overshadowed by the main shades.
I looved this one ;)
ReplyDeleteI for one love your neutral posts, it's really helped me find suitable neutrals for everyday wear :) This colour looks gorgeous on you.

ReplyDeletethanks everybody!
ReplyDelete@sofire: danke für den link, ich hab mir auch schon überlegt, chameleon zu kaufen, hab mich aber für zwei andere farben von le metier de beaute entschieden. wird demnächst reviewt ;)
I actually like it when you apply the eyeshadow alone, just on the lids because it shows the eyeshadow more clearly. =)
ReplyDeleteWieso solltest du dir auch Farben kaufen, die du sowieso nicht magst / nicht trägst. So hat man immerhin ne tolle Übersicht!
ReplyDeleteReally pretty! I have loads of neutral taupey eyeshadows but I'm still on a hunt for my holy grail. Maybe Cyprus is the one.
ReplyDeletesehr schöne farbe! wo bestellst du nars?
ReplyDeleteVery pretty color.
ReplyDeleteI just bought this the other day. I absolutely love it! It's understated but gorgeous!
