Fall’s undeniable lipstick resurgence is taking on many forms. Tubes, crayons, and long-lasting liquid formulas now come in shades of blue and emerald green. And even the off-beat beauty look that Rihanna popularized at her Fenty x Puma show has found new life off the runway via countless recently released onyx black bullets. Still, one new lip launch has managed to climb its way out of the clutter and onto nearly every beauty editor’s desk: Nars’s collection of Velvet Lip Glides.
Not quite a traditional lipstick, and not quite an opaque gloss, each of the 13 shades, which are inspired by the venues and ideas that led the sexual revolution of the ’70s, boasts a formula infused with a unique argan-oil blend, making this some of the most comfortable makeup we’ve ever worn. You can apply the brick-berry Deviant in the morning and completely forget you are wearing it, save for a steady stream of compliments that may tip you off.
But the real selling point of standout shades like No. 54 (a bold cherry-red) and Stripped (an impressively universal nude)—aside from their instantly covetable rectangular Lucite packaging—is their moisture-packed levels of foolproof full saturation. Just as impactful when blotted down into a subtle stain, these elegant tubes should be bumped up to the top of your fall shopping list, along with velvet boots and shearling coats. Summer may not be over yet, but it never hurts to plan ahead.
Nars Velvet Lip Glides, $26 each, available tomorrow online for Sephora VIB and VIB Rouge members; or September 15 at narscosmetics.com.
