Texture/Swatch:
The formula
for the stick is really creamy and smooth to glide on. The color payoff is not as promising as other
NARS products. The coral base color is more sheer compared to the Orgams
original pan blush, but it is definitely more shimmer-y.
How to apply:
If you are
using it as a blush, you can swatch it directly onto your cheek. However, I
would recommend you to use a brush to keep the product clean. If you are using
it on the eyes and lips, the size of the stick requires you to use a brush.
Pros:
1. It is an
all-in-one stick. You can use it for any purpose you like – as a blush, eye shadow,
lip color, etc. You can save some money and space for its multi-purpose
function.
2. The
shimmer-y effect makes it really good for highlighting.
3. The stick
is easy to carry if you need it for travel
4. I think its best potential is to be used as eye shadow base for shimmer eye shadows. It brings out the glittery shimmer effect really well.

Cons:
1. The usual
complain – the packaging. I still don’t like the typical NARS rubber-y
packaging. Nuff said.
2. I don’t
think it works well for the lips. This product looks more like your
typical stick cream blush.
Suitable for:
If you like
cream blush, but want to save that messy step of using your fingers, this is
would be your instant favourite. It works well as an eye shadow base for shimmer eye shadow.
Below is the
comparison of using the NARS Multi Purpose Stick as eyeshadow base against not
using any eyeshadow base and with brand X eyeshadow base. It amazes me how a same eye shadow turns out looking so different with 3 different base. As a base, the Multiple brings out the best in shimmer eye shadow.
I use the Multiple on my cheek, eye shadow and lip color for the photo below. I look like I just woke up with no makeup on!
I think the
NARS Multi Purpose Stick is definite nice to have. However, it wouldn’t be a
daily makeup product. I don’t think you will miss anything if you give this
product a miss. Keep your penny for the pan blush. In my opinion it is more
worth it to get the original pan blush.
NARS is
opening their first store in Malaysia in Pavilion this 16th
November. At the meantime, I will try to provide more information to you all,

pretty <3 At first i thought the stick going to be more pigmented than the powder blush. but after read your review, I think the powder blush is better and more pigmented. I prefer pigmented blush rather than shimmery one. Thanks for the review :)
ah... will stick to the pan.. but using as a primer really enhance the color, and shimmers!
I will keep it in mind, thanks for sharing the information. Keep updating, looking forward for more posts. Thanks.
