NARS Stargaze Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

NARS Stargaze 12-Pan Eyeshadow Palette

Stargaze

NARS Stargaze 12-Pan Eyeshadow Palette ($60.00 for 0.36 oz.) is a limited edition release for the holiday season. It includes five matte eyeshadows, two more satin eyeshadows, and five shimmery eyeshadows. Three of the shimmers were on the denser/thicker side, so they were best applied prior to the mattes to avoid “erasing” some color. Otherwise, the palette was fairly pigmented, blendable, and wore well, though Instant Stardom was a miss!

Ingredients

NARS Hayworth Eyeshadow (2018)

Hayworth

Hayworth is a very light, golden copper with warm, peachy undertones and lighter, truer gold shimmer that gave it a metallic finish.

  • Opaque color coverage
  • Smooth, firm but not stiff, picked up well with dry brush
  • Blendable, easy to work with
  • Long-wearing (8 hours)

Formula Overview

$19.00/0.04 oz. - $475.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "rich, high-impact color" that is "lightweight" and has "increased blendability." Like most larger ranges, there are winners and losers, and some of how they perform can be related to the type of finish. The mattes are soft, slightly dusty in the pans (or not at all) with medium to opaque, often buildable, color coverage. The satin and metallics tend to be smoother, more blendable, and more pigmented with less effort; NARS does the these lower shimmer finishes particularly well, which just looks "melted" on the skin as they lay down so smoothly and have a great shine.

Most shades applied better on my lid than swatched on my arm, which has been something seen across NARS' eyeshadows for years and didn't change with the recent update to their powder eyeshadow formula. On average, they lasted between seven and nine hours on me without primer. They did apply well over primer and stayed on well for 14 hours with minimal fading.

Worth noting: the updated formula and packaging resulted in a product decrease from 0.07 oz. per pan to 0.04 oz. The single eyeshadows received a more noticeable price drop (from $24 to $19) but the duo eyeshadows could be priced better (from $36 to $35).
