NARS Fall 2012 Collection Lip Swatches, Photos & Review

NARS has a few sultry new lip products out in their Fall 2012 Color Collection.
There are four lip products which include: Velvet Gloss Lip Pencil, Sheer Lipstick, Larger Than Life Lip Gloss and a Pure Matte Lipstick. All four are shades of red/brown and very appropriate for autumn.

Velvet Gloss Lip Pencil in More

Pure Matte Lipstick in Amsterdam

Sheer Lipstick in Autumn Leaves

Larger Than Life Lip Gloss in Rouge Tribal

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?

Autumn Leaves look beautiful!
I really love bits and pieces of the fall collection
Well if these don’t perfectly embody the Fall season, I don’t know what shades do! I have to say I would LOVE to see how these look on me, all four of them!

Think a redhead,such as myself, could pull off Amsterdam and Rouge Tribal?
I LOVE Rouge Tribal! I think it is a must have for me.
Same here, Maggie – that lip gloss is gorgeous!
Kelly, I’d LOVE to see you do an autumnal look with that lip gloss as your inspiration!

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.
I really love how Autumn Leaves looks.

I’ve been craving the “More” lip pencil ever since I saw it on the model in the promo pic!! It’s gorgeous, Autumn Leaves is pretty too… perfect Fall collection! well done, Nars!!
they look beautiful, too bad i dont use dark lipsticks tho!
I just love that Vampy colors is coming back! Loved in the late 90ies, and I am sure that I will love it again now
. And Nars + Vampy just have to be a great combination.
this makes me excited for fall!!
I’m not sure if I can pull off orangey-brown shades but these are pretty!
Oh goodness – I am going to be needing that gloss in my life. So vampy and HOT!

Nice swatches, love these colors!
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.
I need More and Tribal Rouge in my life as soon as possible!

Sorry been recovering from a medical procedure, haven’t had a ton of energy this week.
Totally eyeing Amsterdam!

The Larger Than Life lipgloss in Tribal screams Fall to me! So weird to see all the Fall collections while I’m sitting here in a 90 degree weather
Wow, those are perfect for fall. Can’t wait for cooler weather!
Wow, these are perfect colors for fall!
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 : /
Wow, the Autumn Leaves swatch is much more intriguing than I would have guessed from the lipstick. Thanks for the swatches!
Amsterdam and Rouge Tribal are sosososososo pretty *droooools*

I’m not overly fond of any of the colors, to be honest.
I need to be bold and try new colors…what a perfect way to start-
I’ll have to look for these.
Ahhh, I definitely need some Rouge Tribal in my life. That would look so amazing in the winter with a bare eye/full lashes.
