NARS Pierre Hardy Rotonde Blush Palette Review & Swatches
Props to you if you’ve been able to resist the Pierre Hardy for NARS Blush Palettes! Rotonde is one of two blush shades that are available for a limited time which Pierre Hardy collaborated with NARS to create.
This super size blush palette is a stunning shade of tiger lily orange and an absolute MUST have for the NARS Blush junkies out there. And hey, if you NEVER used or purchased a NARS Blush before now is a good time to start.
Weighting in at 0.45 oz the NARS Pierre Hardy Rotonde Blush Palette is $41 nearly three times the size of the normal 0.16 NARS Blush at $29.
Being obsessed with blushes I can’t help but think ahead to NARS Fall 2013 in the hopes they’ll introduce more electrifying shades of blush in this style of packaging. Who needs this much blush though? Well, the point is when you have such a unique gorgeous color like this you’ll WANT to hoard it away and own more of it.
This is a bolder medium orange with a matte finish that has a gold over spray. I typically avoid oranges as they make my duller skin even more dull but Rotonde is simply stunning to say the least. The joy of the product is although pigmented you can wear it sheerer or bolder in a few swipes of your brush (I went sheerer for my look in this post). The color is true to pan and should work across a wide range of skin tones just use a lighter touch if you’re fairer and a heavier one if you’re darker.
For a matte blush the texture is super soft, silky, and very, very easy to apply. I’ve run across a drier NARS Blush or two in my day but I do so promise this texture is a joy to apply and use and it looks perfect with every single application. And did I mention the incredible wear time? It just wears and wears and wears! I can get a solid twelve hours out of it and it looks as intense as the first time I applied.
The sadness it this is available for a limited time but as I said there’s still NARS Fall 2013 to look forward and maybe some new and exciting shades in the future like this!? One can hope!
