Worth the price - beautiful colors, intense pigment, one stick lasts forever, May 20, 2006
I have been a huge fan of Nars makeup ever since Francois Nars developed this line about 8 years ago. I have used his "The Multiple" sticks from day one and have never been disappointed. All of the shades are absolutely gorgeous, work wonderfully on ever skin color/tone, and one stick will last forever without turning bad in color, texture, or scent. My first stick of Cannes lasted almost two full years.
I am very fair. If you are as well, I have found the following colors to work best: Cannes, Portofino, Maui, Mustique, Maldives, and Copacabana. Portofino is my personal favorite. The perfect blend of pink, mauve, and gold. A definite instant complexion booster. Intense pigment, but beautifully sheer in small doses, so you won't end up looking like Bozo the Clown. Great for cheeks, eyes, lips...everywhere!
My only complaint when it comes to Nars products pertains to the packaging. His packaging is gorgeous. Black, with an unusual sueded finish. You'll just love handling his compacts. The plastic he uses, though, seems to be very brittle and prone to chipping, splintering, and breaking. The gorgeous sueded black finish only seems to last a couple of months before that bubbles up and peels off. Goes from glamorous and gorgeous to skanky looking really fast.

The perfect pink., July 23, 2005
I'm a huge fan of Nars the Multiple sticks but there was never a color that was a nice pink.Until now!Riviera is a beautiful,very sheer cool rose pink that makes you look like you were just out in the cold or got a little sun.It's seasonless and because it contains shimmer it's a perfect for highlighting your cheekbones.You can also use it in eyes or lips.This is an indispensable item for me,one that I use everyday and couldn't live without.So,if your looking for a great pink blush or highlighter that isn't the least bit bubblegum,this is your dream come true.

Outstanding product, January 12, 2008
I used the powder version of this colour and found it absolutely perfect for a very pale skin like mine but ... the multiple is even better! It blends into the skin perfectly and leaves a healthy glow, without being too obvious. So, if you are looking for a natural result and have a fair skin, this is the perfect product. I prefer the multiple to the powder version: easy to carry around (it does not require a brush) and it can be used on the lips with a little bit of clear gloss. An absolute hit that will became a staple in my make-up bag.
