NARS Satin Lip Pencils

[Aquamarine1543]

Oh wow, I'm sorry, I misuderstood you completely. Sales season has officially fried my brain.

You're right, those seem to be different colors, and Jardin des Fleurs is close. March is too far away!

It's ok. Btw, how's the shopping?
Yes, March is too far away. But Nars usually doesn't give us much information unlike other brands, so that's why it makes us much more curious all the time!!!

The shopping's fine, thanks! I hate the crowd, but I made some great deals that early on, so I'm really glad about that. I'll send you a private message to tell you about that, because it's off-topic.

I guess we can wait until early march to get the official color story. But I'll try and dig up information before then.

You know, I just found out NARS said Floralies is similar to "Pressed powder". Pressed powder...it cracked me up honestly.

(They also said it's similar to Tashkent l/s. You can see the description above.)
Now I'm def. sure Floralies is pure beige/nude-toned. Maybe almost flesh/skintone color!

I talked with a manager today and she said there're burgandy, red (intense red), orange (like Red Square l/p) and hot pink (like Mexican rose and I think it's Luxembourg) colors of 13 lip pencils. She said it's not NARS if they don't have these kind of intense colors.lol
and she said the texture is between gloss lip pencil and matte lip pencil. They're really pigmented just like matte lip pencils, but glossy finish!


and another news is she said gel eyeliners and brow gel (right?) is coming out after the summer collection and the cream compact foundation will be released after the fall collection. Yes, the information we already knew turned out to be true!

 

[elkaknits]

at the very least 6 of these will be mine.

Thaks for having a reliable source confirm this, Aquamarine1543.
I created topics for the cream compact foundations and the gel eyeliners.

No problem.
What other items did we already know except for gel eyeliners and the foundation?
Ah! I forgot to ask about new primer.:S Maybe I'll ask her when I see spring collection in around 2 weeks or so.

 

[MarieMary]

Light Optimizing Primer Broad Spectrum SPF15, and the Eybrow Pencil/New Brow Pencil. I'm not sure if they just changed the name for the eyebrow pencils, or if they changed the formula, added shades, etc...

She said something related to eye liners and eyebrow will come out after the summer collection, so I think they all will be released on the same month (or a couple of months just like pressed and loose powder.)
Oh and she said new shades of TM will come out too, but she had no idea when it is. But we already knew it's in the beginning of March.lol

Did you see that someone on the FB page asked when the new shades of tinted moisturizers will be released, and she was told that she'd have to check the NARS FB page for information later?

Actually they have no idea NARS FB exists.lol I think the manager heard about it from her boss!

I just meant on the NARS FB page, they wouldn't confirm anything about an upcoming product if it hasn't been released or announced to be released. Therefore, for information about upcoming products before the release date, we can only count on unofficial information leaking online or insiders.

Ah I get it.
I think NARS is too secretive compared to other brands. Look at MAC!! Sometimes I'm sooo jealous of MAC fans.

I'm absolutely drooling over Rikugien, Isola Bella, Biscayne Park, and Floralies. My only concern is that this is in March, and I just know I'll be splurging in April, May, and June like crazy.

Not to knock MAC however the pro of sneak peaks is more than cancelled out by the con of absurdly limited stock. I am a long time MAC user, decades long, and am totally turned off by the frenzy. I do think of them as inexpensive so have no problems getting a lippie for a pick me up but honestly if they keep bumping the prices and making it a nerve wracking proposition to get your hands on something then I will end up doing my leisurely shopping elsewhere.

I LOVE how other brands, even those owned by same parent company, are able to do releases where you not only get a chance to try out things and think about it for a few days {if not weeks}, check out reviews, look for color comparisons etc. before plunketing down the dineros. With the exception of NP I have yet to have slow shoppers remorse with NARS and that means, for me, I have a better shopping experience and general good will feelings towards them.

Even Chanel, with its NP {and I am a NP and l/s gal}, manages to be findable which is way more than I can say for a large percentage of MAC releases.

I can't wait to check these out.

 

[Brightlights2]

They all look beautiful!

Brick color...it looks like a dark version of Dolce Vita lip pencil or lip pencil version of Dolce Vita lip gloss (cuz DV l/g is more pigmented/redder and darker than DV l/p).
