This weekend I got my latest Nars Audacious in Barbara! I was so excited to get her because she has been on my list for the longest time.
And she didn’t disappoint at all!!!!
She appears darker on my hand than on my lips
Ugh she is such gorgeous nude!!! Like all Nars Audacious I am in love 🙂 I have loved all of them in their own way and while some have been slippery or not as creamy as others they are all seriously great 🙂
Once the Sephora sale hits I might get a couple of more, might…. I should explore other brands but I can’t resist true love ❤
Here are a couple of swatches I did for you guys 🙂 It never fails I start off straight and then my writing slants lolol.
Raquel is the lightest shade and the only Nars Audacious that really failed to impress me but that was only because I think she was too light for me. The consistency wasn’t as smooth either but still a beautiful color and I love Raquel when I add a lipgloss on top.
So far my favorite nude is Vanessa (obviously I wear her at least once a week sometimes 3 eek) and now tied for number two is Anita and Barbara. Anna is very beautiful but for some reason I see her more pink than nude so I won’t put her in these stats and the anchor is Raquel for reasons already explained 🙂
Ahhh Nars I am obsessed ❤
Hope you guys had a great weekend! It snowed again here in Minnesota but only a couple of inches.
Happy Monday,
Janet
Jan and Jot 
That is such a beautiful shade! It looks so great on you!! 🙂 xo

So pretty! Everytime I see your posts I want Anna & Anita. Vanessa is gorgeous, it just looks like other lipsticks I own. I used to want Barbara so much, but that name has not so fun memories in our house so don’t want it simply cuz the name. LOL Beautiful swatches & u r looking amazing! 🙂

Thanks Cos!!! Yes Anna and Anita are both amazing! I think I have had way too many convos about those two colors with my bff as we argue which one is better than the other lololol Barbara is nice but totally can understand a name changing whether you want it or not. I don’t know what it is about Vanessa I think I love her purple undertones and while the others are either more pink or true nude, Vanessa has the purple that makes me go gaga for her but she is dupable. Have a great day and hope you didn’t get any snow like we did ❤

Thanks Leah (making me blush!) I know exactly what you mean about wanting to just stay at Sephora for hours. Every time I go in I make a beeline for the Nars section and play with everything! It is all just so amazing 🙂 At least we have the sale coming up and I have my list and hope to stick to it ❤

It’s so hard sticking to a list. You see a shade you haven’t noticed before and you want it, so you think, I need it on my list and end up spending more money. Maybe that’s just me 🙂

Lololol I completely agree! There is always something I want more but with so many things coming out for the summer like Tom Ford, Chanel, Charlotte Tilbury, and MAC releases I must stay strong if I want to get everything I told myself I wanted lololol. I think during Christmas it is the worst for me because they have so many deals and bundle packs it’s too hard to resist and I know there is no point making a list there because I will buy whatever I want since holiday collections are my favorite! ❤

Lololol yes it is hard! I always think if only I had an extra pair of at least 5 lips then all my lipsticks could be used and loved. It is hard! Especially with only more great ones coming for the summer season 🙂 Thanks so much Annie! Barbara is so nice and compliments my skin tone very nicely ❤ Hope you are having a great day Annie 🙂 ❤ ❤ ❤

At least 5, you’re definitely right! 😁 LOL
I’m a bit scared now! Spring finally shows signs of coming and I have so many darks and purples I still want to use! The summer collection will be something else, I’m sure of that! My purse gasps already! 😁😅😅😘

Omg I am on the same boat I over bought on darks but at least we will be ready for fall the way we are ready for Spring and Summer next year. Lololol your purse gasping is just like mine 🙂 I made a list of all the things I want but we all know everyone strays from a list. I have bought very minimal this month and last in anticipation for April so I am ok with over buying because in my head “well I was a good girl in February and March it is ok to go crazy for one month then go back to barely spending,” hahaha

OMG my lovely! You won’t believe my words but I somehow managed not to buy a thing makeup since I came back from my business trip to Milan! Yayyy meee! 🎉🎉🎉
Can’t wait for the sales and the upcoming month, because my list has the length of a paper roll now that I’m thinking… I wasn’t overly impressed by what brands released with their collections for spring, bur for the summer collections total damage shall be done! 😅😅😅

Thanks so much!!! I love Kylie Jenner and in reality all the Kardashians so you are not annoying because I can talk about them all the time. I wish Kim and Kanye could adopt me lolololol. Sadly I am not sure of the exact date of the VIB sale 😦 Last year it was in the middle so I hope it’s the same this year. What’s on your list to get? I have my eyes on the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder Palette and their lipstick in Fever. I want a lot more but trying to be a good girl hahaha

But I do want to try the ABH Brow Wiz and maybe grab the Too Faced Chocolate Bar palette 🙂 Maybe also the NARS creamy concealer hehe. I’ve just seen so many positive reviews!
