Review: Nars Audacious lipstick in Vera. Vera is described in the Nars website as a bright raspberry but as you can see it comes out darker IRL. Personally, I see it as a dark plum with raspberry tones. It can even come off as a lil bit red in certain lighting. Like Vivien, it's more of a winter color but, since it's brighter less muted than Vivien, it could transition to a summer color if you pair it with light eyes, pink blush or a top that brings out the red and pink tones of the lippie. As Audacious lipsticks are, Vera applies smoothly and opaquely even without lip primer or balm. #twitter #motd #nofilter #makeup #makeupaddict #beautyjunkie #narsissist #nars #lipstick #makeupreview

Apart from the MUFE 15 Artist Palette, I also got the Metal Palette in medium and the M618 and M928 artist shadows. As with my 15 artist palette, I have yet to try these so lunchtime (w/c is makeup-fun-time) will be exciting. P.S. look at all that free space :) #twitter #makeupforeverofficial #makeup #makeupaddict #beautyjunkie #nofilter

Presenting, ladies and gents, the MUFE 15 artist palette. I will be reviewing the individual shades soon. For now, I'm savoring their pristine beauty. Sidenote: I was also tempted with their holiday 5-piece brush set (w/ 2 face brushes and 3 eyebrushes) which comes with a really cute pouch. #nofilter #makeup #beautyjunkie #makeupaddict #makeupforever

It's all in black & white (& red). Nars Audacious lipsticks live up to their name. They are risky, bold and make no excuses. They need none because their shades are strikingly beautiful. In the past, I've been partial to matte lippies because nothing quite delivers that punch of color like em. But, not anymore. Nars Audacious lippies, at least the ones I've got, one of which is Annabella here, have a slight sheen to them, but that doesn't deter them from packing a wallop of color. Plus, unlike mattes, Audacious lippies are creamy, letting them glide effortlessly onto your lips. Another plus, a single stroke or swipe leaves a trail of richly opaque color, which translates to less product needed per application. Given the pretty hefty price tag these lippies come with, it's a relief I can expect them to last for a considerable amount of time. #nofilter #motd #makeup #beautyjunkie #makeupaddict #benefitcosmetics #maccosmetics brows #makeupforeverartistpalette1 eyes #narsissist #nars creamy concealer #kpalette eyeliner #maybelline mascara #shuuemura blush and eyeshadow used as highlighter #bobbibrown bronzer

I am starting a blog today provisionally called makeupmoyourself.blogspot.com. Mostly, it will contain my motd's, as many product reviews as my budget can muster and musings on skincare, makeup, beauty tools and trends. Hopefully, it will be informative. It will also be fun, easy and light because, as Wayne Goss says, it's only makeup.
