NARS Audacious Lipstick

I wore Vivien last night. This doesn't show the true complexity of the shade at all! It was super sunny out and the lipstick was quite a bit darker indoors and out of the sun (just like in my direct sun/shade swatches several pages back). I absolutely love it!



I'm wondering how Fanny and/or Janet will look on me if this is what Vivien looks like, plus I have Givenchy Framboise Velours and Bite Crimson... I don't want to have too many similar shades if I can help it (I obviously can't help it).
Holy Vivien is gorgeous on you!
That is what drew me into Vivien, how different it appears in certain lights. Thank you so much

Beautiful ! and glad you have Framboise Velours;) Similar shades well I do not know but as the textures ( Nars - Givenchy ) are totally different ..

aww, how nice of you my dear! It does get a bit challenging the older you get :( Both of my parents looked young even in their 80's bless their hearts. You look fabulous my dear. I was sad to read about you not doing the youtube videos, but totally understand.

Happy early birthday, Dolly. :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: I got Lana and Anita today. Love them. I can't believe I'm a perfect 8/8 on these things. Makes me think all of them could work on me, but I won't press my luck. :haha: I have pics, but be kind b/c I am barefaced. After standing in line to get a new phone yesterday I am a mummy. I'm not sure what day it is. Anita

I tried El Agua liner, too. Didn't fill in my entire lip b/c who has time for that with that tiny pencil? It's really smooth and that was w/o my trusty primer. I recommend it. Beautiful color. Especially if you can't get Dominique right now.
Beautiful! Lana is brightening your face up in such a beautiful way!
Here is Charlotte. Please forgive my chin pimples, nostrils and the sloppy application. I was going to my friend's son's first birthday and had just picked it up out of the mailbox right before I left and decided it probably wasn't the appropriate venue for this color (this is a conservative group of friends) so I put it on in the car as soon as I left the party. I love the color! It really is perfect, for me at least. I've been looking for something like this for a while. I haven't tested for wear yet but I will say it is incredibly comfortable and applied much more opaquely on the lips than when I hand swatched at Sephora. I think next I'll go for either Brigitte or Vivien.
It looks great on you! I could imagine myself wearing this to church... oh my! Lol. Seriously, though, I think it looks very demure.
OK peeps... Selfie Saturday :lol: Me wearing Carmen today. I LOVE Carmen!!!!!! :bigheart: Oh, Audrey came home with me today :) love her too.
Just stunning... As always.
