get It On! (actually…the exclamation mark is mine, because I like the oomph it adds to this tan rose’s name.)
I realize that some of the shades in this batch of nude NARS Powermatte Pigments look straight-up bold on me, but I figure they could work as nude lippies for deeper divas.
Which reminds me, that’s one thing I’ve always loved about NARS. They try to cover the color gamut with shades for lighter lovelies and darker divas, so yay, diversity!

Today is the day, too. These new $26 Powermatte Pigments are available as of meow (here’s a more in-depth review).
These moisturizing liquid lipsticks last about five hours for me, and they have a thinner consistency than usual for their liquid brethren. They’re almost watery, and yet gloriously easy to control.
Overall, I’m all about the dainty pink nudes, like get It On and American Woman. I also like slow Ride, which is a brownish pink, because there’s something kinda ’90s about it.
If you, like my friend Bernadette (hey, Berna!), whom I was just talking to last week, have designs on quitting your nude lip habit and moving into bolder colors, well, you probably wouldn’t wanna get anywhere near the Powermattes, because these nudes are addictive. but girl, I won’t stop you from feeding that nude fire if you have to. ?
Save the Queen — a dusty mauve
American woman — a chestnut rose
Walk This way — a rosy pink
Slow ride — a soft brownish pink
Just What I needed — a rosy brown
London Calling — a lilac pink
