r.i.p. (nars) times square

Blogthurs

I suppose fashion week is the ideal time to have an incredibly shallow life crisis, which the discontinuation of my favorite NARS Times Square lipstick surely qualifies as. To numb my pain, I’ve decided to blog about it. The story: I popped into Barneys on Madison Avenue after the Brian Reyes show with a friend who was in need of a chic restroom and dropped by the NARS counter for a fresh tube. That’s when the catastrophe hit: Times Square is no more. The salesperson’s words took a minute or three to fully dawn on me. He wasn’t smiling, but I thought he might be joking. No such luck. “You might be able to find it online,” he offered. “Come to Bobbi Brown,” said my friend. “They have great colors!” I looked. Nada. Chanel? Rien. And so I put the call out to any beauty editor who may have some of this genius of a color knocking around her rouge-filled cupboard. Or maybe you have some expert suggestions for alternative deep-berry matte shades? I’m a desperate woman, now pathetically nursing a nub of colored wax. Take pity!
