More, Amsterdam, Autumn Leaves, Rouge Tribal

Velvet Gloss Lip Pencil in More is a medium brown/pink shade. Nice pigmentation and excellent texture. It felt really soft and moisturizing, easy to apply. This is a shade that isn’t too dark or brown for fair ladies to pull off.

Pure Matte Lipstick in Amsterdam is a medium/deep garnet red. Nice pigmentation, a little on the dry side for my lips since it’s a matte finish. But I solve that by wearing a balm under it!

Sheer Lipstick in Autumn Leaves is a light, warm orange/caramel shade. As the name implies, it’s a sheer formula that is somewhat buildable.

Larger Than Life Lip Gloss in Rouge Tribal is a dark metallic and shimmery burgundy shade. It’s really rich and saturated and super glossy. Gorgeous shade, definitely a bit deep and vampy for my skin tone though.

Overall: All four of these shades scream fall to me for sure. My favorites for me and my skin tone are More and Amsterdam. If you can pull off Rouge Tribal I say go for it because it’s gorgeous!

Availability: NARS, Nordstrom.

Pricing: Velvet Gloss Lip Pencil ($24 ), Pure Matte Lipstick ($25), Sheer Lipstick ($24) Larger Than Life Lipstick ($26).

Are any of these fall lip shades calling your name? Do you like warmer or cooler shades on your lips in the fall?

    Amsterdam looks amazing! Totally screams fall to me. I’m going to have to venture out and try this color. Hopefully it looks good on my skin tone.

  • Love these colors, I won’t be picking any up, but they are nice fall colors. I pretty much wear the same lip shades year round, a bit brighter for the summer but yeah. How about yourself?

    I *LOVE* the color of Amsterdam, but I think I’ll end up grabbing the velvet gloss pencil. I already have a few of them, and love the texture/wear.

    ALL the colors are gorgeous, and make me want to jump into a pile of dried leaves. :) I haven’t had much luck with NARS lipsticks’ staying power on me, however.

    Amsterdam is gorgeous! I hope all the orange from this season doesn’t leak over into fall. Redheads and all this orange are a no-go in my opinion : /

  • Meg

    Wow, the Autumn Leaves swatch is much more intriguing than I would have guessed from the lipstick. Thanks for the swatches!

    July 20, 2012
  • I need to be bold and try new colors…what a perfect way to start-
    I’ll have to look for these.

    July 20, 2012
  • Ahhh, I definitely need some Rouge Tribal in my life. That would look so amazing in the winter with a bare eye/full lashes.
