Generally not a fan of NARS Cosmetics so won't be able to give a higher rating than 3⭐
I know my opinion isn't the popular one since NARS seems to have a cult following of die hard fans, but I simply can't get on board with their basic bi$h overhyped and overpriced stuff.
This Laguna guy is a dusty, powdery bronzer with added shimmer/glitter. I have had this mini for about a year and a half and been trying to finish it off desperately but it won't empty since I hate it so much, I never reach for it.
NARS packaging is The Absolute Worst ever: black soft (almost velvet-finish) plastic case cannot be kept clean: once you touch it, it will forever stay branded. Dust, fingerprints, any tiny little fuzz and product you may use will be on the case and it cannot properly be cleaned - it really bothers me.
Onto the formula - meh. It's a basic bronzer with a lot of fallout. It does go on rather patchy and takes a lot of blending to achieve a uniform sunkissed look. Especially compared to some more smooth bronzers (Laura Geller baked formulas or let's say Physician's Formula Butter Bronzer).
And we arrive at the price. $42. It's a no from me. I actually prefer Physician's Formula and that one's only $10.
