AMAZING Sephora Deal: $10 NARS Lip Stain/Gloss Duos (Original Price $28) (Swatches!!)

Last night, I stopped by Sephora to do some Christmas shopping (which really didn't even get done) and spotted some NARS Gloss/Stain Duos for only $10 a piece at the checkout area. Yea, that's right, ten dollars. The SA told me they're being discontinued (which is sad if you like their duo glosses) but it's a freaking amazing deal -I bought all 5 shades available and 2 extras of Turkish Delight/Sayonara.

The shades available (at the Sephora I went to) were:

1. Turkish Delight/Sayonara
2. Stolen Kisses/Pampa
3. Orgasm/Hustler
4. Metis/Victoire
5. Sandpiper/Daredevil
6. Moon Fleet/Indian Red

The bad thing was there was only a tester for Moon Fleet/Indian Red and none for the other shades. I didn't want to regret anything so I bought them all not knowing what most of the shades looked like (since there were no single glosses for many of the shades.) I will probably be returning a few of the glosses since Lord knows I don't need 6 (or 12) more lip glosses and stains but we'll see.

Color Descriptions (I swatched all of these at night under indoor lighting so I tried to describe the colors as best as my eyes could see them -it was a little dark):

1. Turkish Delight- Very sheer, milky, almost neutral pink with no shimmer
2. Sayonara (lip stain)- Matte rose pink red
3. Stolen Kisses- Sheer, brownish beige pink with some silver shimmer
4. Pampa (lip stain)- Deep caramel with fine bronze shimmer (Don't like this at all -makes my lips look dirty!!)
5. Orgasm- Coral, peachy pink with golden shimmer
6. Hustler- Neutral brown (think chocolate milk) with a mauve edge
7. Metis- Slightly dark neutral mauve with shimmer
8. Victoire (lip stain)- Matte, very dark, plummy ruddy brown
9. Sandpiper- Shimmery light bronzed amber with some pink
10. Daredevil (lip stain)- Very deep, vampy brown red (Kind of gross description but it looks like dried blood)
11. Moon Fleet-Sheer, very shimmery gold
12. Indian Red (lip stain)- Very deep warm red

To buy these NARS lip gloss/stain duos, click here. Orgasm/Hustler is on this page but it's sold out. I have no idea why this isn't listed on Sephora's "sale" section but I guess that's a good thing -more for us!!

I also picked up this Jack Black Lip Balm duo set for $10 (which is a savings of $4) -they only had one left which was a HUGE bummer as I use these on a regular basis.

Anyways, that's it for now. Have a lovely Saturday everyone. <3
