Yes I agree the other formulas are very good I have some :) ( Niagara, Roman Holiday or Vendanges of course lol ) I love them !

Nars semi-matte formula is one of the best ever but it is drying. Thank you for the information, textures have been changing quite a lot for 2 years now, the new one will be close to other high end ones I guess. The Guy Bourdin one was just gorgeous. But I wish Nars would have semi-matte ones too, uniformity well it bothers me in fact.

I do agree that the semi matte formula isn't very comfortable (I much much much prefer the velvet matte lip pencils), but the satin and sheer formulas are pretty good imho.

My lips are truly weird.

I have never had an issue with Nars semi-matte lipsticks. My lips quite like them. However, I found the Guy Bourdin shades a little drying (as much as I love them). I'm hoping that won't be the case with the Audacious lipsticks, because I'm already excited about them.

I think the texture will be the same, Katred. Nars Guy Bourdin lipsticks were supposed to be moisturizing on my lips they are but they migrate out of the lips a bit. Semi-matte wear very long Iove each semi-matte from Nars even if my lips become very dry after wearing it. I guess the Guy Bourdin formula is similar to the future ones, :" Future Red " ;) deserves its name I think ?

I hoped at least half of them are semi-matte. I mean semi-matte with more moisturizing version. I like the texture of their semi-matte lipsticks, but it's little dry, so that's why I hoped there're some upgraded version of semi-matte lipsticks.lol Plus, I'm not a big fan of Guy Bourdin lipsticks because it's little slippery on my lips.

Back from hibernation (lol) and here's some information.
As I said, the texture is almost identical to Guy Bourdin lipsticks.

According to my source, this collection is not only new line of the lipstick but also replacements of current lipsticks in some way because around half of current ones (only lipsticks, not pure matte lipsticks and lip pencils) will be discontinued this fall. But I haven't found out the list of discontinued lipsticks. The only I know is Barbarella and Roman Holiday lipsticks will be survived.lol
They're going to replace them with Audacious lipsticks one by one later. My source said it's the best texture what NARS has so far so that's why they decided to replace one by one.
I can't agree it's the best texture because I'm not a big fan of Guy Bourdin lipsticks (They migrate out my lips a little bit and they're drier than I expected), but anyway, it's the information I got so far.


FYI, it's not related to audacious lipsticks, but NARS powder foundation also will be discontinued this fall.
They said lots of items will be discontinued and there will be replacements of them this fall rather than releasing new items to celebrate their 20th anniversary.

I'm a big fan of the existing Nars lipsticks, so I'm not crazy about the idea of change. I hope some of the shades will be new and that the replacements will live up to the originals.

I love my Nars lippies too, I have several semi matte as I said and they are great. I wish I could back up but that would mean backing up at least 10 ! Well wait and see, every brand has to reformulate lipsticks, es and np, from Dior to Guerlain and Nars. Nars means a lot to me, I really hope the brand will stay true and beautiful.

Is it a first look at the Audacious Lipsticks? I think so. There's NARS engraved on the lipstick, and possibly big NARS letters on each side of the tube? (we would be seeing the N on the picture). 4 letters for NARS, 4 sides on a tube: one letter for each side. That seems logical to me, lol.

They all look like red and hot pink lipsticks, but they're beautiful! :)

That list of colours is making my head spin. It does seem heavily weighted to reds and pinks, which makes me think that the more natural shades that exist now won't be going anywhere, at least not immediately. Unfortunately, it also means that I'm looking at a huge want list... Reds, bright pinks/ fuchsias, berries and Bordeaux shades are like catnip for me.

I've heard there will be about 40 lipsticks in this collection. So that list (24) is just a bit more than half of the whole thing. So prepare to add *more* to your list. :p

I updated the post while you were writing. :p 30€ a lipstick btw.
Thank you :) 30 € like the other reformulated lippies ( Estée Lauder etc... ), well that´s ok even if they were less pricey before ( 26€ ? ), the np will be 20€ ? The names just great Nars being a huge fan of movies. !
