The official launch is on the 7th, according to NARS FB, so maybe are they going to send them after the 7th even if we order now?
Btw, we really need some swatches and reviews before we buy them.:)

From what I understand they're available for purchase now if you go through the Pinterest pages listed on the NARS FB page, because as of right now they don't appear in the Lips section. Then on march 7th, they will appear on the NARS website like any other lip product. ;)

The blurb on the Pinterest pages:

Quote: Dress up lips with the new, moisture-rich NARS Satin Lip Pencil. The five/four pink shades highlighted are available for purchase exclusively through this pinboard from now until the official launch of the thirteen-shade collection on www.narscosmetics.com on March 7, 2013.



Here are the lovely Pinboards:

And for the curious, here's an interesting article explaining NARS's strategy in using Pinterest for the satin lip pencil campagin:

I wish I could buy right now (I've waited sooo long.lol), but it's better for me to wait for some swatches.:p
How many lip pencils are on your wishlist?
I put Biscayne Park, Yu, Lodhi on mine. Hyde Park and Rikugien look pretty too on the promo pics, but I need to see some swatches after I decide whether I'll get them.:)

This right here is the way to market on Pinterest. I get so tired of seeing brands posting pictures of their products. I will say that I already follow Nars of Pinterest and usually they post a lot of products so this right here is a much better way of getting noticed.

100% agree. Those boards are really nicely done. And I can't wait to see these in person... It's going to be hard to limit my choices.

As best as I can remember, none have shimmer - that one is just less pigmented than the others. I can't say for certain though, I was at The Makeup Show today and I saw so much makeup I lost track!

I'm sure you're really tired, but you're also excited to see new lip pencils! :)
How's Isola Bella? Is it more beige rather than peach cuz it reminds me of Calliope l/p or Honolulu Honey l/s?

Wow. Those look stunning! My first thought was that I want ALL THE REDS. Those first four shades would all get tons of love from me. It's too bad that Jardin des Plantes won't be part of the regular collection, as it looks lovely. I suppose it's possible that one of the counters will get it here. I love how saturated the shades look!

Here's a clip from NARS:
(Isola Bella, Rikugien, Lodhi, Hyde Park, Yu and Majella)

Btw, Does Isola Bella look like MAC Peachstock?
They look similar to me.

Getting way too excited for these. I'm currently eying Golshan, Luxembourg and Palais Royale... Don't think we'll get Jardin des Plantes anywhere here, but that looks beautiful as well... I do hope that there's not too much waste sharpening them. That's the one thing that bothers me about this format. Every time you sharpen, you're shaving away product...
