NARS Sarah Moon Give In Take Dual-Intensity Palette Review

One thing you need to know about the Dual-Intensity Eyeshadows, is that they are meant to be buildable. So they aren't crazy pigmented with one swipe, but you can build up the intensity. They aren't buttery smooth or silky eyeshadows, the formula is a bit dry. I know I know, we are all used to think that a buttery smooth eyeshadow is the best thing ever, but we often forget that a drier formula can be pretty good too! In fact, I find that these characteristics are what makes them so blendable and long lasting.

They can be used wet as well! The shades II and III have a beautiful shiny finish when I wear them wet, it looks a bit like leather! By the way some Dual-Intensity eyeshadows are very shimmery, but none of the shades in this palette are like that.

I is an off white with a subtle golden sheen. At first, I thought this was going to be very similar to NARS Albatros, but it's not! Albatros has a strong golden sheen compared to the shade I.

II is a peachy beige with a luminous finish. I think this shade is supposed to be a bronzer, but it's too light for my skin tone! On me it's a subtle blush with a luminous finish.

III is a pinky coral with a luminous finish. I love the formula! The color is sheer but buildable and the finish is beautiful.
