If you're looking for a good option that's very similar to BGRR, try Nars Matte Velvet lip pencil in Walkyrie. It's so similar but pulls more brown than pink. I'm wearing it today and fell in love all over again.

Posted these photos on my blog and IG... wanted to share them here as well. Love them all! I think these might be my favorite lipsticks out of all the collections. The bronzer is nice too... even better than expected.

didn't like the summer collection initially so I wasn't into it. BUT. My fav from this collection? I saw a review of TTT on YouTube and I just HAD to have it. So while I was at work, a friend got it and the liner for me....I inadvertently found this site and my lipstick collection has...tripled. Although I love PB, I see it more as a spring color for me. TTT has been my it color this fall/winter. glad I bought a back up because I wear it practically everyday with a lil blush to warm my face up.

Glad that you got your package! Those neighbors need to be on permanent side eye.
I GOT MY PACKAGE!!! I came home after heading out with the family, caught my neighbors with the light on and PROMPTLY sent my guy to knock on their door and get my package. They didn't want to open the door at first, but when he asked about the package they acted like they didn't know what he was talking about...  then he mentioned we opened an investigation into it and it was suddenly in his hands with an excuse that they were waiting until Monday to hand it into the leasing office (although the leasing office is open 7 days a week, and the package was delivered on friday at noon) :nono: .  Sad to know I have somewhat shady neighbors, but glad my lippies were recovered unused.

Yep, I think that for us medium-dark ladies, BGRR is the worst possible lipstick. Too rosy to be nude, too nude to be pink.

Like, if there was a way for a lipstick to both match your skin but still totally clash with it, BGRR is it. I'm gonna give it one more try, maybe as a nudish base for darker colors, especially lipglasses, but if I'm not totally satisfied with that, BGRR might have to find somewhere else to live.

This description is so accurate.


Yesss straight poo poo/mud on my lips. I'm NC45 with strong yellow undertones & BGRR was a No Go...Thank god I already have a HG nude.
I think I have yellow undertones, too, so that may be why it clashes with me as well.

Thanks for the suggestion! I keep forgetting to pull out my Ruffian Gold. I love it, too. It really is like a highlighter for lipstick. I wish it was offered in different colors. Purple, blue, pink, red. It'll give a nice subtle shimmer without looking glossy.

heaux, and riri woo, even through heaux is a matted rebel, that extra retro matte made a big difference.
Heaux is one of my favorites from the collection and I was expecting it to be a matte Rebel based on early swatches. I love Rebel, so I was excited to get a matte version. But Heaux on me looks different than Rebel. It's like it's own color. I was both disappointed and pleasantly surprised. I still want a matte Rebel.

I'll swatch it the next time I'm at a NARS counter. I really enjoy NARS Matte Velvet lip pencils, but admittedly have never bothered to look at any of the nude colors.

You're welcome : ) I wish MAC would bring out the same formula and make it duochrome sparkle.
