Overview

A dinner reservation or a night out is where this lip pencil fits, delivering the impact of a matte lipstick in a jumbo crayon. NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil saturates the lips with rich pigment and a velvety finish while vitamin E and emollients prevent dryness.

NARS combines lipstick payoff with pencil control, so the tapered end lines and the body fills. The color name says red while the specs say oxblood burgundy, so check the swatch photo before buying.

Who it's for

People who want bold, long-lasting matte color with precise edges. Those who prefer sheer or glossy lips should look at a balm or gloss.
