Let's Talk About NARS!

A lot of the other big beauty brands have their own threads now, so I thought, why not NARS? Let's share news about new collections, feedback on products, etc here.

 

The audacious thread: http://community.sephora.com/t5/Lips/Show-Me-Your-Audacious-Collection/m-p/1695820#M10941

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Supposedly 8/1

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Nice, thanks! Really excited for Infatuated Red. Hoping it's a nice fall colour for pale, neutral tones. 👍🏻

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Rita in red packaging for Holiday. Wish this was Carmen, I've been thinking of purchasing my namesake for awhile!

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Oooh! That's kinda pretty! I don't have Rita either! 

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

I'm a sucker for pretty/different packaging, so I will probably buy this 😞

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Thanks!  Veronika posted it in here last week, but I forgot to add it to the Fall/Holiday spoiler.

 

Rita is my favorite red from the Audacious line - she's very oomph.  Carmen is pretty too, but she has sort of a rust undertone to her.

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Aw nuts! Sorry about that!

 

I wouldn't have expected Carmen to have a rust undertone just from looking at swatches!

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Let me rephrase that; perhaps rust is not the best descriptor.

 

on me, Rita is a true red, neither too blue or too orange.

 

Carmen by comparison leans orangeish (where I was going with the rust @k617) but not a bright orange like Lana, rather more muted.

 

lyra is much paler than me though, so perhaps on her it is a bright red.

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

True that. Rita is quite warm, true red on me, too. Nothing blue about it ( on me ), even though I know it looks kind of blue-ish in this photo. Have no idea why. On me, it is actually so warm, at first I was totally scared off as I was not sure about warm reds on me back then. ( They grew on me since. 🙂 )

( I am still peeved they've never come out with a true blue bright ( or even not so bright ) red. What the what, Nars?! )

 

Carmen is... just gorgeous warm, bright red on me ( probably because I'm so fair, yes ). She does lean orange-ish.

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

@lyravega . you're a queen. i also 100% ADORE rita on you. i remember you feeling hesitant on her at first but i'm just gonna say, again, that you do rita's vibrant richness serious justice.

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Aw, thank you, @jemly !

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Those are such beautiful swatches. I like Carmen on you better than Rita but both are gorgeous of course!

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

I know this sounds total creeper but I think you know what I mean @lyravega

I will never tire of seeing your beautiful pout 🙂  

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Aww, shucks... @Mochapj

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Super cute!!!!

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

She doesn't have a rust undertone on me. It's just this beautiful, bright, warmish red on me, @k617 . No rust.

 

Rita is my fave Audacious red, too. But, Carmen is a very close second. 🙂

 

 

 

 

 

 

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Am I the only one that thinks Parallax looks a little blue in a lot of these photos and swatches? Does it look like that IRL or is it just the lighting?

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

@Kelizabethr07 

 

it does look blueish, but I think that's because it is blueish.

 

It's described as a 'dove grey' and dove greys are typically a pale, blue based grey.  I have one coming this afternoon and I'll be sure to post a swatch and photo of the pan when I get a chance.

 

ETA: parallax.

 

Probably looks a lot bluer because of my undertones, but on fingertip and in pan it looks silvery.

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

@Mochapj Thanks so much for posting these swatches! I was hoping it would have a slight blue to it since that would make it more unique. I have enough silver shadows.

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Swatches of 3 of the new hardwired shades, because of course they didn't have the one I actually wanted, LOL.

 

I did pick up Pygar though, which I wasn't expecting to like.  It's very, very strong.

Re: Let's Talk About NARS!

Lunar actually looks like something you could use as a blush, too.  Do you think it would work for that purpose or is it too shiny?
