NARS Bavaria Single Eyeshadow, a deep sea blue ($24)

Oh, FranÃ§ois!! I’m matte about you and the matte textures in your fall 2013 color collection!

NARS Fall 2013, babe. It’s 12 pieces, heavy on the mattes, although there are also some shimmers here.

Check that gorgeous teal at the top. That’s Bavaria, om-nom-nom…

The color palette is comprised of blues, dove grays and browns, with a sprinkling of gold, red, purple and pink.

The whole enchilada comes to NARS counters, boutiques and online July 15.

I’m still getting a feel for the pieces and what I can do with them as far as looks, but here are pics and swatches…

What a gorgeous collection! It’s rare that I like every piece in one, but this is stunning, particularly the eyeshadows, nail polishes and Mysterious Red Velvet Pure Matte lip pencil. *drools*

What an eclectic collection! I’m a bit surprised to see the dove grey in a fall collection, but I really like it.

I wasn’t expecting the yellow eyeliner or orchid lipstick, but they work well with the overall collection. Pretty!

I see some unusual ‘summery’ colors in the line up here – Bavaria, Las Ramblas and Galathee. Mysterious Red looks gorgeous!

All in all its a very nice collection but leaves a bit to be desired IMO. It doesn’t scream “Autumn” to me but NARS has never been one to stick with the classic seasonal color schemes.

The only product I see that really gets me excited is the Peloponasse pure matte lipstick and the nail polishes. The eyeshadows are pretty but remind me a lot of bobbi brown’s usual color palette. The eyeliner could be exciting too, I am always a sucker for interesting eyeliner and the larger than life e/l’s do live up to the hype. I will be thrilled if the nail polishes are great in real life because those are so hit or miss. (Trouville was so gorgeous but such a disasterous formulation. streek city. big mess. yuck)
