I can’t wait until summer is here. One reason I love summer is everything seems easy. For example, summer clothes are light and easy. All you need is a pair of shorts, and a t-shirt, and you’re good to go! Also, summer makeup is a cinch. First, you need products where you need minimal effort. Moreover, you don’t need over the top shimmers, or disco glitters. In fact, all you really need is an easy toss- in- the -bag- palette. The Nars Heat of the Night Summer Edit is your answer. Nars Summer Lights Hot Nights Summer Palettes have everything in them to create soft, flattering looks that will compliment your summertime skin!
You can find the Nars Heat of the Summer Edit, Nars Summer Lights Hot Nights Palettes at Sephora and on Nars Website. Each Palette retails for $59. The Nars Skin Deep Eyeshadow Palette($59) is similar to the Heat of the Summer Edit. However, the Heat Palettes are curated to include both eyeshadows and cheek shades.
Nars Summer Lights Hot Nights Summer Palettes Packaging
To begin with, the outer packaging and the compact’s cover have the same artwork.
The covers look like sand dunes. Although, the compact cover is not textured, like Nars Exposed Cheek Palette. However, the artwork is reflective and it does look textured!
The reason for this is there is a shiny piece of plastic covering the compact.
The back of the compact is the Nars soft touch matte black packaging. Inside, on one side, the palette has a nice big mirror.
On the other side there are four eyeshadows on top. Underneath the four shadows there is a highlighter. Finally, the shadows, highlighter and powder have the texture of sand dunes imprinted on them.
Nars Summer Lights Hot Nights Summer Palettes Formula
First, all of the eyeshadows, the highlighter, and bronzer are powders. Additionally, the pigmented shades are easy to blend. Also, all of the shades have a super-soft texture.
Furthermore, the powders feel creamy. All of the shades are easy to apply. Moreover, all of the shades have a very soft satiny finish. In this way, the satiny mattes and shimmer satins give your face a glowing, summertime finish.
