Love NARS products.

I luv Nars cosmetics. They're high-end & top notch. This lip pencil is creamy, moisturizing & a cinch to apply. It has a matte finish that's long-lasting.I ordered "Dragon Girl", but I was sent "Bettina". It's also a very pretty color.

After reading all the positive reviews about the NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil (in Cruella), I was really excited to receive mine in the mail to try it out! My pencil was shipped the day after my purchase and even arrived a couple days before expected.At 645AM, I applied my lip balm first (eos - the ball shaped one) and then the lip pencil; it came on smoothly and easily - so far so good. I did notice some slight drying, typical with matte, and nothing that was bothersome or dry enough to cause cracks in my lips. During the course of my morning, I drank two cups of coffee and from my water bottle (one of those was with a straw) and went to check on my lipstick at 11AM and it was pretty dang near to still perfect. Seriously. It was like I had applied just an hour ago instead of the 4 hours (plus coffee wear!). At that point I simply applied some Baby Lips (in Cherry Me) to combat any minor signs of wear. At 2PM I ate (a messy) lunch and basically wiped it off myself with a napkin, but even afterwards it still left my lips a cute lighter shade of red where I only applied my Baby Lips again and went about my day. It also does not appear to dry flakily or in the middle, which are very nice.Just some background: my skin tone can range from medium to olive (depending on the season and sun exposure, you know) and I have brown eyes. One of my major concerns prior to purchasing this was if the color would work on me, but I took the risk and was not disappointed. It's a gorgeous shade of a darker red without being too dark (if that makes sense). I have the same primary concern as many others have mentioned before me: it's so expensive, $25 for a tiny pencil (that requires sharpening) is slightly excessive. One of things that I'm hoping will combat this a bit though is that it doesn't seem to reply many applications throughout the day. Overall, I would say if you are interested in investing in a solid product - buy this. I love it, but I am definitely also on the search for a cheaper day-to-day alternative.

I’ve been using this color of NARS lip pencil (Bahama Brown) for several years. When I discovered that my last one was actually a different color I went to buy a new one only to find that it was not only discontinued but out of stock~everywhere.Happily, I located it on Amazon at a not overly marked up cost & it showed up in a week or so. It’s authentic & in excellent condition.

I ordered this because I love the NARS Dolce Vita lip crayon but it’s been discontinued. It was a staple in my makeup bag and I was excited to see it on Amazon. It arrived and I applied it but noticed it’s not the same formula. It looks like the real thing, packaged like the real thing, but it doesn’t apply like the real thing. It’s more sheer and doesn’t stay as well. It doesn’t apply well. I thought I’d imagined it but I wiped it off and tried the real color I had bought at Sephora and noticed the original product feels and applies much better. I kept it because the color matches the original shade, but this is a dupe.
