Amazing. Uh- Maze-Ing. I doubt there is a more perfect red for someone like me out there. I am pale and neutral/cool, and all blue-based reds turn fuscia on me, but all orange-based reds turn...

I was looking for the perfect red lipstick and I found it. Fire Down Below is just gorgeous. I thought it would be deeper than it is, which would've been fine. But it is actually a true balanced...

This is a true blood red that is just fabulous. It seems to be out of stock whenever I go to buy it, so if you happen to find any, get it while you can! Not too orange, not too blue, not too shiny....

This is a great shade for Asian ladies looking for some va-voom! A gorgeous, rich shade of red that isn't too orange or bright. Like all reds, it's rather unforgiving with chapped lips and such,...

Very gorgeous deep red, near HG for me but <i>not quite</i>... maybe it's a touch too brown. I'm NC30-35, black hair/eyes. Great formula as usual from Nars.

Great color; looks scary dark in the tube but more of a brownish red that's very deep and warm. Only complaint is NARS l/s seem to be a bit drying so it definitely looks better with gloss to...

Perhaps the deepest red in the NARS collection, this one was told to have taken 3 years to create and is supposed to be the perfect balance of red, orange, blue and brown.... I think thats all BS,...

Oh dear, this one just didn't work even though I love the color. I love NARS reds, but I might as well resign myself to the fact that I cannot wear reds that have even a hint of a warm or brown...

Great color--just not for PPP me. Way too brick red and dark. The texture, like many NARS lipsticks, is a bit drying and uncomfortable. Still, this would look fabulous on someone else!

Unfortunately it's a bit drying, as most NARS lipsticks are, but their colors are amazing, especially the reds! For someone who likes red lipsticks but find they always tend to go pink on me, and...

Oh do I love this color, described as "pure blood red" on the NARS website. It's a gorgeous rich red that doesn't turn pink or orange and doesn't look in the least bit clowny (I'm 48, so I'm a bit...

When I want to wear a really red lipstick without looking like a hooker I use this. Great staying power but make sure your lips arent chapped for this one.
