a must for red eyes
I have allergies and I rub my eyes a lot, which I know is really bad...especially because then I get a bit of redness at the corner of each eye and on my waterline. This is the best remedy for that. I keep it in my bag! Looks more natural on the waterline than white, and works better than putting concealer on the redness - too much of that around your eyes will just look cakey and gross anyway. This also makes a pretty awesome brow/inner corner highlight, even without any other makeup.
great for dry skin
I wouldn't use this on blemishes, but on my under eyes and slight redness around my nose this is perfect. It's verrrry creamy. You need to apply very little as it's extremely pigmented. It lasts a fair amount of time, too. If you don't moisturize beforehand, or if you apply too much, it'll definitely look cakey. I recommend applying it with your finger to warm it up, then blending it out with a fluffy brush like a MAC 224 or something similar.
even good for pale faces
Being rather pale I used to think bronzers ALL would look muddy on me. So I really didn't expect to love Laguna as much as I do. It's easy to apply so that you don't look dirty or muddy, and a very natural golden color. Staple in my stash for sure.
LOVE THEM!
I own several shades, but Giza is my favorite. It's the ultimate flattering, go-with-everything pinky peach shade. These glosses are lightweight and comfortable, moisturizing, and not sticky. I have heard loads of complaints about the smell, and I don't get it. I barely smell anything. There's no added fragrance. But if it bothers you that much, you can always add a drop of peppermint oil or something similar to your tube. I have tons of glosses, but I find myself reaching for NARS the most.
Instant Obsession
I'm obsessed. They're matte without looking dry and dusty, beautiful application (goes on so creamy), non drying, last for ages, stunning colors...what more could you want?! I have about half of the colors (wearing Palais Royal in the photo) and I want all of the rest. Not a stinker in the bunch.
