Ok my head is spinning. I too tried to stay out of this thread, but I'm too weak.  First of all, thank you @Ernie  for these swatches! Is anybody else finding some of the online swatches to look really different? So, unless I'm looking at this wrong, I'm confused about Brigitte. In this swatch it looks totally different than Temptalia's here: http://www.temptalia.com/product/nars-cosmetics-audacious-lipstick/brigitte?i=172013 Here's another swatch (top one) where it looks similar to Ernie's but again not the same http://www.mynewestaddiction.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/nars-audacious-lipstick-swatches.jpg Then another where it looks pink! http://www.make-upblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/nars-jane-julie-brigitte-swatches.jpg Am I losing my mind? Or my vision? Is this the same Brigitte?

They can look different, because of the light, the skin tone etc. it's best if you're able to check them in person. Also on the lips can vary wildly. My friend who bought some of the same colors, we both wore Juliette today and it looked like a different color on her.

 

[Ernie]

No! I wanted to get Raquel :nope:

it's my favorite of the lot, you need to get it!

 

[Ernie]

Thanks for the swatches,@Ernie   Now I'm considering getting Raquel instead of Barbara, I'm just not sure which one would look better on me. I didn't like Raquel on T (too light), but my sktintone is so different from hers, so... not sure.

Raquel is way lighter then Barbara. I can't go by T's swatches, on me everything is darker, as I am so fair.

 

[Ernie]

I gotta say even though I don't have Dominique yet, I think it's worth my trouble of ordering from Nars. :lol:

You need Dominique, it will look great on you!

 

[Ernie]

My lips hurt. :getyou:

Based on my experience, T's swatches are always lighter than actual colors just as you said.

I think it's because of some lightening or sth when she takes pics.

my first one is most likely gonna be Raquel or Marissa, want half of them tho. Lana is eyecatching as well, grace is so purdy. Michyo is also calling my name. its a lil overwhelming trying to pick jus one to get to start my collection wit.

Thanks for the swatches @iLoveBees!!! This is what I was hoping Audrey looked like. It looks like a nice everyday color. NARS is killing me (and my wallet).
Fanny and Janet look great on you as well.

You're very welcome.

It's not totally matte, theres still a sheen and flexibility to it but its def more matte-ish than the others.

That's good, iLoveBees.^^^ I secretly wish that all of these were actually matte finishes.

I'm hoping that my order at Barneys goes thru because the shade was off the site then back on when I ordered it then back off the site. I called cs this morning & she says if they didn't cancel it then I should get it. Got my fingers crossed because I really really want it .

Ooh, I put Juliette in my cart last night :amused: :lol: what does the shade look like on you?

Juliette is almost like a muted coral, but it has depth on me. On my friend it's more like a dark peach. It's really pretty. Raquel is the kind of color I could wear everyday, goes with everything, hope you get it quickly. :encore: How many is that now? Teehee

 

[Aquamarine1543]

Ernie, did you see Jane by any chance? If you did, how was it? :shock:

 

[elegant-one]

How many is that now? Teehee

That sounds really pretty!

F I V E with 2 loaded carts

I'm hoping I get a shipping email soon

I'm sitting here waiting for Fedex. Watch them take forever. Had I slept in they'd get here early and I'd have to run to the door looking like a cavewoman.

I thought I was the only person who was anxious whenever I get some packages. But I'm glad I'm not the only one.
