NARS Audacious Lipstick Collection

Hi everybody!

Once again, NARS have outdone themselves by releasing 40 new shades of lipsticks with their Audacious Lipstick Collection. The collection is incredibly impressive with their new formula. The pigmentation of these lipsticks is actually borderline unbelievable and I recommend blotting them off to make it more wearable if you don't want to go all out. It applies really smooth and creamy on the lips and doesn't dry out the lips like a traditional matte lipstick, although having said that, these lipsticks are not exactly fully matte. The packaging is absolutely gorgeous and so sleek with a magnetic casing. They look beautiful and fit perfectly into a little clutch/makeup pouch. I have read tons of reviews on these lipsticks for a few months now and there is so much hype about these lipsticks. I absolutely love them and they are just as good as any luxury lipstick brand that have much steeper price tags. I got mine from House of Fraser for £24.00

This collection offers 40 different shades which can be quite overwhelming but the 4 that I have purchased since its release are Charlotte, Audrey, Jane and Olivia. These four shades are actually so different from one another but they are all my favourite type of lipstick shades. Starting with Charlotte that is a burgundy shade that works really nice for autumn/winter and during the festive season. Audrey is gorgeous as well and it is a warm toned reddish plum shade. Jane is a typical shade for me - it is a beautiful peachy rose shade that works well for everyday use. Lastly, Olivia is a medium red with a brown undertone and I have been using that for classic red lip looks.
