NARS: The Multiple: G-Spot

I have always been hesitant in the past about The Multiple as a product. The concept of a make-up item that can be used in many different fashions does intrigue, but concerned me whether it will be successful as a multiple use product.

The Multiple comes in loads of shades and can be used on the eyes, cheeks, lips and body. It contains vitamin E and açai oil for antioxidant benefits. Fingers are meant to be used to apply it and blend the product through warming it on the skin.

The shades available are pretty but personally I found it hard to find a shade that would be usable in a multiple ways as well as suiting my skin tone. There are many pearly whites and golds that personally I could not use on my lips or as a blush. Which means the only way I could use them would be as a highlighter, which is clearly not the point of the product. The range online is quite extensive and have some lovely orange shades that I would love to try, but in store there is very little on offer (I have found). I picked up the shade G-Spot

G-spot is a deep rose with fine gold specs

As an eye shadow:

I have attempted and succeeded in making this shade wearable as an eyeshadow. Using my ring finger I lightly dab the product pretty much over my entire eyelid (not above the brow bone). I like wearing it this way on days when I do not feel like putting much makeup on, just some colour and mascara. Pink is quite hard to pull off as an eyeshadow, especially as an everyday one but I think it just looks like a nice wash of colour when its blended well. It does not last that long on the eyelids for me, this may be because I have quite a greasy eyelid.

As a lip product:
On dry lips, this product does not look good but if they are in good condition, it looks nice. It is quite hard to apply as its got a huge area of product, so I lightly dab it as a sort of lip stain. It is quite creamy and can look too thick and a 'lipstick amount' is applied (if that makes sense).

As a blusher:

This is definitely my favourite way to use this product. Not just because the shade I have is easily wearable as a blush, but applying a circle straight onto each cheek and then blending with my fingers is so easy and means I do not need to carry around a blusher brush. It stays on for most of the day and when it does start to gradually wear away, it does it evenly leaving a slight hint of colour. 

As a highlighter:

Other shades may work well, this shade does not work that well and just looks like I have applied it too high up!

On the body:

Not usable as a body product! Possibly the more pearly shimmery shades would do as body glitter?

Would I recommend this product?
YES, I love the fact I can use this in multiple ways and I am in love with the colour. The formula is creamy and not drying, easy to apply and lasts a long time. I cannot wait to try another shade!
