\nThese are four black eyeliners, but each of them contains micro-pearls with a different color.<\/p>\n
Night Bird<\/strong><\/a>: the first\u00a0in the photo above is with violet\/purple<\/strong> glitter<\/p>\n Night Flight<\/strong><\/a>: the second\u00a0is cobalt blue glitter<\/p>\n Night Clubbing<\/strong><\/a>: this third one\u00a0has gold<\/strong> glitter<\/p>\n Night Porter<\/strong><\/a>:\u00a0my favorite, and last in the photo above\u00a0contains emerald green<\/strong> glitter<\/p>\n You struggle to differentiate\u00a0them\u00a0in the picture, don’t you? Looks like they are all black? Exactly. (I will tell you more about that later in the post)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n On the official photo, which is of course much better than mine, it’s the same thing, the color differences are\u00a0not obvious. Yes, OK, these eyeliners are black at the beginning, with colored \u00a0glitter. But still!<\/p>\n To give a little more detail, they are not waterproof eyeliners, but they are very long lasting<\/strong>\u00a0well on me in any case, they don’t move and don’t smudge all day, which is great. They can be applied \u00a0along the lash line and you can blend them if you want, and also in the waterline. For\u00a0me, they\u00a0weren’t irritating at all.<\/p>\n I heard about these Night Series eyeliners on\u00a0Temptalia<\/a>\u00a0(this website is the place to go to know what’s new in makeup, a blessing for the passionate \/ makeup crazy people like myself). Moreover, the site founder, Christine, didn’t love those eyeliners, finding them too stiff and hard to apply on the eyes. So I went on the day of the launch of NARS in Dubai Mall of the Emirates<\/a> to buy some products I wanted, among other Dual-Intensity eyeshadows<\/a>. I saw them on the counter\u00a0and I swatched them on my hand. The glitter shows rather well on my forearm\u00a0and I could (as you can see below) distinguish the colours without a problem…<\/p>\n So you can\u00a0see the colour differences\u00a0quite well and the glitter’s shine, right?<\/p>\n Well the problem is that when I put them on my eyes, it isn’t obvious at all… I mean really not. It looks like a classic black eyeliner. Without the pretty colored glitter. I was so\u00a0disappointed…<\/p>\n I bought Night Porter, the one with emerald green glitter, and really, you can barely see the green micro-pearls. Maybe if I’m under the right light and that you look\u00a0carefully… For example, here is Night Bird, which is the one with the glitter which is the most visible. I can see a small purple glimmer, but it’s still pretty light. (and \u00a0I zoomed) (my pores, for example, are\u00a0way too big for my liking\u00a0here ;P – but I can still only just see the slight purple tint)<\/p>\n Another issue, the pencil’s lead is super fragile<\/strong>. It breaks super easily. It’s a 24 $<\/strong> product, what\u00a0a waste!<\/p>\n As you may have understood, I’m pretty disappointed \u00a0with this\u00a0Night Series of eyeliners and even if it hurts my heart because I love NARS, I can’t really recommend them given the issues I’ve highlighted… Let’s say that in the same brand, the eyeliners Larger Than Life<\/a> are such a better choice. I have used them for years, and they’re actually my favorite pencil eyeliners. And if you want iridescent reflects, I’m a super fan of the NARS Eye Paint<\/a>\u00a0pots and some colors are quite similar to some of the Night Series eyeliners.<\/p>\n [wprs-pros][wprs-cons]<\/p>\n The NARS Night Series\u00a0eyeliners are available on NARS website<\/a>.<\/p>\n Photos credits: NARS, bonniegarner.com<\/p>\n![\"NARS](\"https:\/\/bonniegarner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/nars_2014_night_caller_eyeliners_open.jpg\")

\nHowever, I really loved the colors and I was still curious about them.<\/p>\n
\nPleasant surprise, I found them very creamy<\/strong>, it slided perfectly and deposited the color on my skin really well. They even blended easily. So I told myself that Christine from Temptalia was perhaps unlucky with the ones she received…<\/p>\nLook at the swatches:<\/h3>\n

\nA few days after I bought this one, \u00a0I received the rest of the collection from NARS. I thought it might be different with the other colors, but unfortunately it’s the same thing. I can clearly see the glitter and the colors on my hand when I swatch them on my arm as illustrated in the above photo but\u00a0nothing on my eyes, it’s difficult to explain. When I look at it after applying it on\u00a0my eyes, it looks like I put a simple black eyeliner.<\/p>\n![\"NARS](\"https:\/\/bonniegarner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2014\/11\/nars_2014_night_caller_eyeliners_night_bird.jpg\")

And you, I’m very curious to know what you thought if you’ve tried these? Feel free to leave me a comment!<\/h5>\n
