Nars new Audacious Lipstick

Hello wonderful readers!

If you watched my Favourite Lip Products video  you know that I’ve recently become a fan of lipstick.  It’s just longer wearing and more opaque than lipgloss, and on a perfectly moisturized lip there’s nothing better.

I know I’m not the only one because brands keep launching lipsticks, and a perfect example is Nars new Audacious lipstick collection.  It pays hommage to Francois Nars’ original launch of 12 lipsticks 20 years ago!  Like other famous makeup mavens, such as Bobbi Brown, Nars got into the game with the perfect shades of lipstick.

The Audacious Lipsticks are so much more though – they come in 40 colours and in a rich creamy matte formula.  The lipstick is super super pigmented and very very long-wearing.  When I swatched a couple of colours on my hands, I actually had a tough time washing it off, and that’s a good thing!  You’ll need actual makeup remover to get these off, not just your usual soap and water.

Also, my daughter got into one of these, and ended up smearing it all over her face and hands…. two days later, I was still finding streaks behind her ears and under her chin… yeesh!

The beauty of a pigmented lipstick is that you need such a tiny amount to cover your lips and so the wear is slower and more even too.  An overly creamy lipstick that doesn’t set will wipe away when you eat and drink, and with this lipstick, the wear will be quite minimal.

Pick them up at Nars counters starting September 1st for $37.
