Woah have I been sleeping on NARS lipsticks. NARS Schiap is my very first lipstick from the brand, and oh my it’s gorgeous. My cousin purchased it from The Makeup Show NYC after seeing it on a NARS Sales Rep but later decided that it was too bright for her taste. She passed it on to me and I was blown away at first swatch. I absolutely love it. Thanks Mo!
NARS Schiap is a bright fuchsia pink with a semi-matte finish. It glides on smooth and buttery but a little sheer and must be layered for full opacity. The lipstick has a strong aloe like scent but it wears off pretty quickly. It’s enriched with Vitamin E to increase wearability and keep true color intact making it very moisturizing and long lasting. I still apply a moisturizing balm underneath after exfoliating my lips for the best look.
At first glance I don’t have any exact dupes in my collection but I have plenty of bright pinks so I’m still testing. If I find a dupe I’ll update this post and if you know of any dupes feel free to leave them in the comments. *Update: Milani Color Statement Lipstick in Rose Hip is VERY similar, the finish is just glossier and it’s a touch off in color.

Do you think it resembles MAC Candy Yum Yum or NYX Shocking Pink? Kinda looks like it in the pics. Glad to know it’s a semi-matte instead of a matte lippie like MAC CYY.
I don’t have Candy Yum Yum but a Sleek dupe and it’s brighter than Schiap. I looked up NYX Shocking Pink and it looks very similar to CYY, brighter as well.
Absolutely gorgeous. Face is beat!!
Thank you!!
It looks great on you. I have this color just sitting unused. I am going to have to wear it now. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thank you and you’re welcome. Pull it out, it’s such a beauty and perfect for this time if year.
your hair is amazing, and your face is always on point
Thank you so much
Pretty. I think Wet n wild don’t blink pink is a dupe. Also love Jungle red. Revlon’s fire and ice, is a dupe color wise.
Don’t Blink Pink looks like it has more coral/red in it to me but I’m not sure since I don’t have it. I do have Fire & Ice though so no Jungle Red for me
You face is beat tp the gods
Thank you hunty! 🙂
