I agree with every single word! I'm also a loooong time MAC user but have been so turned off for the past 2 years or so. I don't enjoy super limited items nor do I need too many LE collections.

truth be told I am almost scared to wear the super LE things. I mean I do of course but not as often as I wear my GC stuff. On a day to day basis I wear my GC stuff and only when I am going out, once or twice a month, do I wear my LE things.... I feel kinda stupid typing this out.

Yu Satin Lip Pencil.

Gorgeous!
This is def.pinker and brighter than Luxembourg.
I think Luxembourg is close to Mexican Rose and Yu is close to Cartharge but with a hint of more magenta!
Besides, I think it could be the lip pencil the model of NARS wears (on the first page.).
Btw, the finish of the lip pencils is glossier than I expected whenever I see new pics!

I had fun being a detective tonight. 
It seems that Trevor Undi directed a film for NARS Cosmetics with music from the band New Look. Sarah Ruba (one half of the duo that is New Look, and also a model) apparently stars in the film. According to what's in the comments, it's scheduled for march, so I imagine that it's a promotional film for the satin lip pencils. And possibly there would be another one for the gel eyeliners? (I *love* her make-up by the way!)

It's a nude lip pencil, isn't it?
It could be Lodhi cuz it looks like a muted version of Bolero.
But it leans on orange rather than pink (Bolero is nude-peach but a hint of pink).

I agree, she's beautiful.
It looks quite shiny in this Yu picture, but maybe it's because she's smiling? Everything looks a bit shinier when lips are smooth.
You're right, it would make sense if the satin lip pencils aren't glossy. It doesn't look glossy at all in some photographs, and it kind of does in others.
Swatches and official information, quick!

Look at that, someone else is selling the Satin Lip pencils collection, except 2 (Rikugien, Biscayne Park) that I imagine they kept for themselves.

I'll be honest, I'm never happy to see whole collections available for sale on eBay ahead of the release date. :/

Well since Nars makes a Matte lip pencil and a Glossy lip pencil I am going to have to assume that the Satin are regular shiny lip pencils. HTH But gloss's always look WET to me and Satins always look shiny and Mattes look well depends on formula

I understood what you meant the first time.
I was just pointing out that it's difficult to draw conclusions on the finish of these satin lip pencils based on the pictures posted above, because it looks quite different from one picture to the other. Therefore I'm anxiously waiting for reviews and good swatches.

I know what you mean, but we can't help it right?
Btw, Wow, some lip pencils are quite darker than I expected!
The 5th pencil from the right looks Het Loo to me!

Sadly. :/I know what you mean, but we can't help it right?
Call me old-fashioned, but the idea of selling something you were given for free makes me sad. Bloggers / journalists don't have to make a review of what they're sent for consideration of course, but brands don't have to send them things for free either. Selling a whole collection on eBay ahead of the release date shows no sign of appreciation imho. It makes me think of those who would be overjoyed to get just one item for consideration, and those at NARS who are basically being considered as a gift-machine they can make some money on.
