Jason and I just finished watching Skyfall and it. was. AWESOME! I've never seen an entire James Bond movie (I know!), only bits and pieces of the 70's and 80's installments on late night TV. The opening chase sequence was so suspenseful and explosive, I sat transfixed with my mouth agape. When the scene ended and Adele's lovely voice started singing the title theme, our eyes met and we both had "holy $#!%" looks on our faces.
What does this have to do with NARS' Marie-Galante Eyeshadow Duo? I had the same thrilled look on my face when I saw
a look done with it by the lovely Christine at Temptalia several months ago.

The shadows are described as an "iridescent orchid" and an "iridescent regal blue" and they contain purple and blue micro glitter. The shadows are on the sheer side, and that's one of the reasons why I bought it. The lighter wash of color is one of the things that makes them wearable for me personally. I love that the colors aren't as punchy and go on like a sheer overlay. The iridescent micro glitter is gorgeous!

Without primer, these shadows creased at the 8 hour mark, but I had no creasing or fading when I wore them over a primer.
If you're looking for a more subtle way to wear purple, I think this duo belongs on your wish list!
