NARS Audacious Lipstick: We all need some Grace in our lives
It seems like everybody is going bananas over the new NARS Audacious Lipsticks! And I couldn’t understand why… I mean, staring at the rows and rows of new lipsticks (there are 40 of them!)… they all looked the same to me. Seriously, my eye can tell maybe 4 shades apart… and then the rests all […]

Narsissist at play: Colorful Neutrals!
Being the color-wench that I am, my friends were shocked that I had reserved the Narsissist palette prior to the launch. After all, isn’t it a neutral palette? Worse, after declaring vehemently that Linda.Doesn’t.Do.Palettes, I had to swallow my own foot when Narsissist came home with me. I simply couldn’t resist. NARS has masterfully […]
