I have this lipstick in a lovely deep purple that I was given as a gift.
First of all, I LOVE the Nars packaging - so sleek and nice and small - easy to fit into small pockets etc. It is entirely black with the white NARS logo on the side.
The product itself is easy to apply - really nice consistency that goes on smooth but is also very matte at the same time. I usually put on with the lipstick and then touch up with a lip brush.
It lasts for a pretty long time, which can make it quite drying as it is so matte. I have dry lips so I usually take it off and reapply after a few hours so it doesn't look too dry and flaky!!
Overall, I love this product. The colour pigmentation is amazing and Nars never disappoints!
I absolutely love the colour of this lipstick that I own - I have it in tonkin and it is the perfect nude lipstick for my skin tone.
It lasts for a long time and looks beautiful but makes my mouth feel so dry! I know that's the price you pay for having a matte lipstick but it really gets to me after a couple of hours of wear.
Tips: I like to put a little bit of lip balm underneath it, makes it less dry, and also makes it easier to apply. I know that kind of defeats the purpose of a matte lipstick but it means I don't let a colour I love go to waste.
