Wow what a lipstick!!

I got the itch to buy one of these Audacious lipsticks after so many rave reviews all over the YouTube community, then while having a play browse I spotted Liv and it was love at first sight.

Quality, this lipstick has it in bucket loads and although I know the price is hideous at over $50 but it screams of being well worth it. Firstly let's look at the packaging, it comes in this cool touch black metal casing with the NARs name on the base part of the bullet in its shiny blackness. It feels heavy and just carrying it in my hands makes me feel special, sometimes you just need a product that makes you feel 100 dollars and just that little bit of something magical and I get this feeling from this lipstick. It has a magnetic catch inside the lid, so it won't be coming undone in your beauty bag or handbag, and it is strong to pull the lid onto the body of the barrel with quick a swift click, which is quite satisfying and had me playing with the lid quite a bit from the moment I brought it. Inside the lipstick is quite chunky and full once untwisted, you are not being skimped on my only having a half full lipstick. Engraved on the lipstick is the NARs logo again just to add another level of luxury to it.

Finally lets talk about the lipstick formula, oh my it is creamy so it is easy to apply and the pigmentation is out of this world, from the first touch on my lips I was staring back at a lovely fullness of colour that was truly matching to the colour of the lipstick itself. There was no need for a lip liner as it sat perfectly where I placed it, no slipping and sliding across my lips, or did it feather or leak into my surrounding skin it is a very well behaved lipstick. Even after a blot with tissue to settle onto my lips the pigmentation is intense and almost looks like a stain on the lips, but wipes off easily enough with a makeup remover. Long lasting even stayed put a little during lunch and drinking, however it started to fad just a bit around the inner places of the lips so a quick top up was needed to keep the colour vibrant and popping but the packaging of this little darling means you want to take it with you anyway.

Liv = This is the only shade I own at the moment (oh yeah I am going to have get a couple more, she needs some friends) Liv is an intense deep purple shade like eggplant and has a satin finish to it. The amount of compliments I have received whilst wearing this lipstick makes me love it even more.

Although this is a super rich high end brand lipstick and is expensive I do recommend it as I have never had a lipstick like Liv for the quality and luxury.

Wow this is such an in-depth review! The price is the one that has been stopping me from buying this but this makes me want to get it. They have one called Angela which is a purply-pink shade which I love. I think I may have to buy it now. :)

Great review Chikoboo, even though there are loads of reviews on Youtube I've been waiting for someone on BR to review it :-) I've now added this to my short wishlist - looking at Anita, Anna and Raquel (one at a time though) :-)

Nars' best lipsticks

After having heard so many comments on Nars Audacious, I decided to give it a go. Of course red shade is the must for Nars I guess. Rita ( deep red with orange base) and Annita (dark pink with a light brown shade) are my choice as it looks gorgeous on my olive skin tone. The texture is smooth and so creamy. Some lipsticks smell and leave weird taste at some stages but not this Audacious.I can comfortably wear it all day long without dryness on my lips. Moreover the stay power is so amazing.After a few cups of coffee during the day,the colour still stays bright and opaque on my lips! ( it still transfers on the coffee cups though...)

Some of the best lipsticks!

I bought these lipsticks after reading Chikoboo's review and I'm really impressed with them! My favourite shades are Silvia (orchid fuschia) and Anna (mauve rose) and I love to blend them together to get a medium pink lilac colour.

The lipsticks come in a sturdy rectangular black case with a magnetic lid. The name NARS is embossed on the bottom part of the case. I quite like the packaging but it's prone to fingerprints so at the end of the week I wipe them down with - wait for it - cleansing water haha good way to pan.

The texture is creamy and opaque with one swipe. It's similar to Nutrimetics Hydra Brilliance lipsticks but without the sheen. I love that they apply on smoothly and the formula appears to be consistent with most shades with the exception of Raquel which was opaque but was patchy.

They are comfortable on the lips and don't move but most importantly they don't dry my lips out. I always wear lipliner regardless and the longevity is about 4-5 hours on me but I generally stuff my face so it's a given I'll be touching up.

Like any lipstick there are plenty of dupes out there but you can't ignore the quality of these lipsticks so I don't wear them alone. I mix my shades together when applying. Example: Raquel (pink beige) and Jane (orange rose) to get a softer orange rose shade that is more wearable on my skintone.

I bought some of my lipsticks from Mecca Cosmetica (Newmarket) and the remainder from Sephora (using Shipito) after I gave up waiting on Mecca (for 2 months). I would definitely repurchase (with the exception of Raquel).

Tips: If possible go into Mecca and swatch them so you have an idea of the shades and how well they apply.

I like to mix the shades together to get a unique colour. I apply the base then go in with the other colour on a lip brush.

My favourite lipsticks of ALL TIME

I just have to give this lipstick 5/5 on all counts. I own two audacious lipsticks (in Mona and Jeanne) and the amount of compliments I get while wearing them is honestly ridiculous. They look incredible! So pigmented with a beautiful shine to them.

The packaging is beautiful, love the black. Also love how the lid has a magnet that keeps the lipstick together, so cool!

I have nothing bad to stay about this lipstick and honestly NARS is my go to whenever I need anything lip related.

Tips: To make it last longer I like to apply a layer then dab my lips with a tissue and then apply another layer.

Life Changing Lipsticks

I had heard so much about these lipsticks. They were mentioned on blogs, raved about on YouTube and were splattered all over Instagram. That, paired with the good reviews I had read everywhere else, and I was sold.

I brought two lipsticks, and two that seemed so talked about. The colours were Anna (which was sold out for so long) and Jane. The first time I opened these lipsticks, I lost my mind. I'm not joking, I was shocked at how I felt about these lipsticks, I had literally never been so happy with my makeup purchases.

Firstly the packaging. Cue the angels singing because that's what it was like when I opened these lipsticks. The packaging is rectangle shaped and is black and sexy. The lid has a magnetic design which connects to the bottom half of the lipstick tube and almost ‘snaps’ closed.

The lipsticks are beautiful, they wind up revealing the word Nars written down the actual lipstick which I love, and the colours are stunning. I have Anna and Jane, Anna is a beautiful mauve, whereas Jane is terracotta. Both colours have identical formulas (which is good since a lot of products don't do this).

The formula is lovely, there is no smell but these glide over lips and feel more like a lip balm then a waxy lipstick. There is no tugging, they just apply beautifully and feel moisturizing and hydrating. They last a long time on my lips, but when they do wear, they don't exactly wear evenly, and leave a heavy 'lip liner' look on my lips, but that’s easily fixed by applying more lipstick.

I really like these lipsticks, even though they are pricey. I would love to get my hands on some more.
