Unadulterated luxury lipstick glides on like satin across skin with single-stroke coverage in a spectrum of shades. Bold, ultra-saturated color feels hydrating and stays put—does not bleed or feather. Features an embossed NARS logo on the lipstick bullet.

I'm not wowed by the audacious lipstick. Its good and has a great variety of shades- you can definitely find a shade you like but for the price, its not worth it. Its $44 per pop over here in...

Love the color of "Anita." It's the perfect MLBB that is pinkier than NARS' Dolce Vita but has a satin finish that leaves a stain. The color is a deep dusty rose with good staying power that...

Like the previous reviewer, I was less than wowed by this new formula lipstick with a really steep price tag - $37 in Canada. I was torn between 3 shades (Janet, Fanny and Audrey) and tried Audrey...

I really wanted to love this lipstick, I was hoping unlike all the other formulas that NARS has put out that this would *not* oxidize. But it did. I bought Audry and lovely plum red, very soft and...

I'll get the bad out of the way first, since it's the most obvious and only negative aspect of this lipstick - the price. At $32, it is extremely pricey. In fact, I had initially held off on...
