NARS Atomic Blonde Eye & Face Palette for Smoldering Summer Looks

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

NARS Atomic Blonde Eye & Face Palette ($59) and it’s all about creating sizzling looks for Summer. This travel palette contains a limited edition bronzer and highlighter as well as four eyeshadows two of which are limited edition in an easy to travel with palette!

You get:

  • Eyeshadows in Golden bronze shimmer (LE), Shimmering copper, Metallic warm copper (LE), Bitter chocolate infused with gold
  • Shimmering Warm Gold Highlighting Powder
  • Diffused Brown Bronzing Powder

If this contained a blush this would be my ideal travel companion for Summer. Why? Because I’m the type of person that wants to bring ten different 50 shade eyeshadow palettes with me when I go on vacation or if I’m traveling. Meanwhile I do like the same look using all the makeup I travel with! WHY!!!!!!!!!? This would be perfect for me as it contains just the right shades of warm eyeshadow that I favor as well as a nice highlighter and a bit of bronzer for warmth. Adding in a blush would have made it even better! I know I’m not really a bronzer or highlighter person but this shades look like they’d work rather nicely together!

I might just pick this one up!

P.S. Poldark season is nearly upon us! Yeah, yeah I know it’s only July but Fall isn’t the only thing coming….! Poldark is showing now in England but returns to the US on at the end of September and I’m counting the days until this graces my screen:

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse. If you’re that person feel free to reach out and leave a comment or follow me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Bloglovin‘.

    Poldark is being shown on my PBS station right now on Sunday evenings!! I just discovered it a few weeks ago, and we watch it right before Endeavour, which is simply fantastic!! Um, Ross is pretty easy on the eyes, isn’t he? 😀

    • Isabella Muse

      That’s reruns sadly. I’m waiting for s4 which airs in September 🙂 I love love love Endeavour 😉 ugh yes! I miss Being Human SO DAMN MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      • Cindy

        Being Human was EPIC! I miss it too. And I can’t wait for Poldark! Hate that we have to wait so long for it!

        • Isabella Muse

          I miss it so hard! Even with Aidan gone I still enjoyed Hal and Tom’s bromance! Damn….! I can’t either! I keep seeing stupid spoilers on Twitter from the UK!

      • kimkats

        Ah, ok. I haven’t seen any of the Poldark series yet, so it’s all new to me. 🙂 Did you also watch Call the Midwife? The season for that show is waaaaay too short!! At least they do a Christmas special.

        • Isabella Muse

          ENJOY IT! it’s really quite a great remake! I do! I’m pretty much a pbs geek and general anglophile!

  • kjh

    Screeching with laughter at the Muse supporting PBS for beefcake! You go, girl! The original Poldark wasn’t even hot. Even PBS keeps up with the times.

    • Isabella Muse

      😀 lol! it’s really important! At the risk of sounding like a telethon, I totally urge everyone to support public broadcasting! It’s a great cause ;-D and I promise it’s not just because of Poldark ;-D

        I used to all the time. Not always in agreement with their decisions, like combining masterpiece with mystery. This goes back to the Pat Mitchell days. She was entertainment in NY after Boston, before PBS, right? I did not dislike her as an entertainment reporter, but hate what she did for (against my concept of) public tv. Now, I kind of support it, bec GBH bought my classical music station, WCRB. I support that. It really annoys me the way repeats/onlines are only around 2 weeks. If I joined the Ralph Lowell Society for a hefty sum, i’d still miss half the shows I want to see. They should keep full seasons up for at least ~a month. It’s just too easy to miss. I’ll have to wait til Endeavour’s current season, etc.is on free Prime….(and get anything new from Cosrx, KB/AB… I work nights and it’s a royal PITA. WGBH’s employment practices are also open to debate. They have lost their August Institution status with me.

        • Isabella Muse

          It’s actually not Masterpiece Mystery anymore, it’s just Mystery. I am grateful they have kept to one host for the past two or so years. I can’t recall Pat Mitchell ever being a bad thing for PBS. What was it you hated about her? PBS doesn’t have the traditional tiers that WGBH does. I do a monthly donation of $100. That does get me a PBS Passport. Most everything is on demand anyway. Either via Prime or Britbox, Acorn Media apps, etc…! However, still important to support public broadcasting none the less 😀

    Is it stupid that I want this palette for the name? I really liked the ” atomic blonde”� movie haha. The palette is for summer, so it makes sense to use one or two shimmers ( sparkling on the sun) as an all over the lid color, but the bronzer looks a bit darker than What I usually use.

    • Isabella Muse

      not at all! I’ve been known to buy makeup for the name only ;-D

          • Andrea Vecchione

            I bought a Pretty Serious polish called Happy Accident, just because of the Vincent D’Donfrio movie Happy Accidents. Seeing he’s my FAVORITE actor ever and the polish was green, my FAVORITE color, didn’t hurt… or should I say “didn’t help” my wallet?

          • Isabella Muse

            😉 That’s a damn cool reference! I love finding fandoms in my makeup!

  • N

    Thank you for the Ross picture. I would definitely donate for that. Sorry, I’ll stop. Can’t wait for the new season also.

  • Andrea Vecchione

    I don’t watch Poldark, so I have nothing to say about it, but I have seen the movie Atomic Blonde with Charlize Theron. Awesome, kick ass, action, spy thriller that takes place in the late ’80s and the soundtrack is fantastic too… so good I bought the CD. Of course, I was just starting HS when the movie takes place and the music was popular, so it’s a real flash back for me.

  • Linda

    Ross Poldark yessssss please. “The Last Kingdom”� is good as well. Season 3 will be on Netflix.

  • jel888

    Why, why do you tempt us??? Argh (the photo)! Anyway, I agree with you that to be a great summer travel or work kit, it needs a blush and I’d add at least one or two matte eyeshadows.

    • Isabella Muse

      I’m ok with the lack of mattes but reallyyyy could use that blush ;-D

      • jel888

        Hiya Isabella,

        That’s because you are into blushes (as I’ve understood from reading your posts), but me, I’m an eyeshadow person (never enough!!!) LOL! I have NARS’s Unfiltered I &II blush palettes from a couple of years ago and a few other single colors and I’m good for life blush wise.

        • Isabella Muse

          lol you are indeed right! I love me a good blush ;-D I’m good with blushes too but I’m a sad makeup addict always looking for more ;D haha!

  • Molly

    First of all, so psyched that someone I “know” is watching Poldark too. Demelza is breaking my heart!!! I know Ross has been a crap husband, but can’t she see that they are the ultimate otp???? Weeps uncontrollably … okay, just eats dark chocolate and waits for next season.

    • Isabella Muse

      LOL you’re so adorable! Don’t worry! Happily ever after will come ;-D
