With all of Francois NARS' Collections, I love how each piece has a story behind the inspiration. It's not just a NAME. Bilbao Lipstick from Spring 2012 is "...named for the
Basque region of Spain, which has been revitalized by the Frank Gehry–designed
Guggenheim Museum."
The lipsticks having a story make them more interesting. Like you're wearing a piece of history rather than just a color on your lips.
Bilbao (shimmering topaz, $24.00) is a rosy nude, semi-frosty lipstick. The shimmer is extremely subtle. While this lipstick isn't super moisturizing, it doesn't dry out your lips either (it's listed as a Satin formula under their website). The shade is something I normally gravitate towards, because it can be worn neutrally or with a smokier look.
Bilbao is great to wear alone (as shown above) or with a coordinating gloss (try NARS Como Larger Than Life Lip Gloss!).

Love it!! This is on my list for sure now!
Oh my, this looks almighty fine on you! My NARS wish list is getting longer and longer!
This looks like quite a wearable nude shade! I find nudes hard to wear but this one certainly looks do-able for me. I like that there's a subtle shimmer to it, as well. :)
