♥ NARS x Pierre Hardy Provocative Pairs Nail Polish Duo (Sharks) – Swatches & Review ♥

Press Sample
NARS is definitely one of my all time favorite high end makeup brands. They have outstanding lip products, my absolute FAVORITE bronzer (Laguna) and gorgeous nail lacquers! They recently teamed up with shoe designer Pierre Hardy to create six fashion forward nail duos and 2 gorgeous blushes inspired by Pierre’s Summer 2013 shoe collection.

Each duo comes housed in a miniature “shoebox” complete with dust bag. (A nod to the designer’s famous packaging) 
All shades are limited edition & absolutely stunning! The duo I’m reviewing for you today is called ‘Sharks’.  There are no actual names on these polishes – They are just labeled ‘Left’ & ‘Right’.
Left – Soft pastel yellow. When applying the very first coat, it was pretty streaky. (This pretty much happens with all pastel yellows I have worked with) But once I put that second coat on, it smoothed out like butter! Photo below shows two coats.
Right – Pastel lavender. This one is so stunning! I didn’t have any application issues with this one. It went on so smooth and creamy. Photo below shows two coats.
What are your thoughts on these ‘Provocative Pairs’? Do these or any of the other duo’s catch your eye?
Availability – narscosmetics.com

Price – $29

    I really like the contrast of the purple and yellow in this duo. That’s probably why I also like the dark blue and orange duo!

    These shades are really pretty though. They’re very springy to me!

    Perfect timing I’m just about to purchase my first two Nars polishes from Sephora. I have them in my cart but I wanted to check around with the nail pages to see if anyone had any feedback. I know that having a review by Love For Lacquer makes it much easier to make the choice thank you for a great review
