NARS Shanghai Lily Spring 2008 by Storybookheroine
NARS Shanghai Lily Spring 2008
Frankly I find this "Kiss of the Spider Woman" look a bit scary but don't be put off by the drama of the ad, NARS Shanghai Lily looks very promising when you look at the new additions. The shades are very fresh, clean and perfect for Spring. I have already tried Dolce Vita lipgloss and the Orgasm Multiple (I think this multiple orgasm thing will make for lots of laughs on beauty boards and blogs). Trying to take an existing classic and beloved product and translate the color into another type of product leaves a wide space for disappointment. At this point I can say Dolce Vita lipgloss and the Orgasm Multiple live up to the hype. The Belle De Jour Velvet Matte Lip Pencil looks promising and I have the single versions of Stolen Kisses Lipgloss (one of my personal favorites) and Pampa Lip Stain and I like the idea of putting these two together as a duo. I hope more duos are coming in future collections.
Usually I find Spring collections boring or in colors that do not appeal to me but this Spring NARS has my attention and I ordered the collection as soon as it came online. A thorough review is to follow but until now take a peek at the collection.

I've had my Orgasm Multiple since September, and I love it -- I don't own Orgasm powder blush, but I adore multiple-use products like the Multiple and Smashbox's Skin Tint.
I'm very tempted by the eyeshadows, because I'm always looking for the perfect champagne/pink/gold eyeshadow, and that's a very nice duo (the single is lovely too).
Does anyone know if it's already at the counters/Sephora, or should I just order it online?
I'm fan of NARS. I interviewed tthe Barneys manager for NARS 2 months ago and it was really interesting. We'll find it on my blog in Mes articles, if you are interested.
Jeanne- I think it should be at counters now but sometimes not everything comes in at once. I ordered my stuff online when it came up.
I have the Orgasm Multiple too, love it. Great texture and I like it on the lips better than the Orgasm gloss. It's a great cream blush too!
The shadows have interested me too. I think they will be beautiful and basic.
I absolutely love the veil! Oh and the makeup is nice too! ;-)
What a collection of beauty products. Nice shadows.
