NARS · Rita Audacious Lipstick, Sephora Exclusive

François Nars got it so right when he stated that “the perfect red lipstick is a woman’s best accessory” and Rita Audacious Lipstick is definitely all that … and more. Inspired by Hollywood’s ‘love goddess’ Rita Hayworth, this particular version comes in limited edition sultry red packaging (a Sephora exclusive/also available with the regular packaging as part of the permanent range) that just begs to be taken out in public, although I’m betting that this colour will definitely help channel your inner movie star. #ScreenSirenGoals

Rita Audacious Lipstick, Sephora Exclusive (CAN $39.00) | Showcased in red instead of black packaging, the case bears the usual NARS lettering and ‘rubberized’ feel. Its plush texture displays full opacity by basically the first swipe and this killer scarlet shade perfectly straddles the fence between cool & warm — thereby making it universally suitable to a wide range of skin tones. Ultra creamy and hydrating in feel, there’s no feathering or bleeding into surrounding lip lines, while staying power is impressively long & leaves behind a carmine stain.

EDIT: Even thought this edition is no longer showing up on Sephora’s Canadian site, I was advised that it may still be found at several store locations

Red lipstick — not exactly groundbreaking, right? And if you’re anything like me, you’ve probably got more than your share of red lippies laying about. But as we all experience at some point, finding that perfect red can be a challenge, so when one comes along like Rita Audacious Lipstick that meets all criteria (colour, texture, application & packaging), you can bet that I’ll be jumping all over it. Plus, is there anything more empowering that a kick-ass red pout? Didn’t think so …

Available exclusive at Sephora and online
