    This is a great red! It's definitely warm, so good for warm/golden/olive skin tones like mine. I bought it to use as a lip pencil along with Shanghai Express. The color is a little bit...

    Perfect, perfect, perfect. Everything about this lip pencil is wonderful. It glides on like butter and has a silky matte finish. I've never felt a lip pencil with this sort of creamy yet matte...

    I recently tried 6 of the 17 Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencils. Forbidden Red was one of them. Forbidden Red is pretty but is not one of my favorites. It is not a must have for me. It is a muted, brick...

    This lip pencil is the combination of a lip pencil and a lipstick with very strong pigmentation. The width is quite big in size so it applies just as quickly as any lipstick. I am not too crazy...

    My HG of red lipsticks! Not too cool, quite warm, but tomato I think, as others have said. Even when I haven't got my makeup on, this immediately brightens my white face. (I have often found...

    I've been looking for the right red lipstick for quite some time, and I think I may have found it in Forbidden Red. Most reds look too dark/bright/orange/pink/purple, etc. on me. However, this...

    My HG red lippie! I am a PPP so reds are daunting, but when done right can look gorgeous against pale skin. This is it for me...a beautiful rich slighly brick red with no pink undertones & no...

    Love the color, works much better than the NARS lipstick I had purchased prior. The texture is great, but just use a little lip balm when it starts to dry out. A little goes a long way, will...

    I’m cool-toned and very pale, so I just don’t know if this shade was right for me. I do love the consistency and packaging of it though. I will have to continue my quest to find the perfect red...

    Agree with above reviews - this is a lovely warm red but is more than a tomato red than a brick red! Great staying power and lovely, matte/satin finish. I got it as a gift but I think I would buy...

    What an excellent product! This is a chubby warm red lip pencil that leaves a beautiful stain on my lips.....can be a bit drying, but easily remedied by using lip balm underneath it. Really a...

    I had to review this, because only a Frenchman could sell you a lipstick called "Forbidden Red" and describe it as the natural look! Natural it is not, but I walked into the Nars counter at...

    Yes, it does go on like velvet, and stays there for many hours to come. Forbidden Red, is a brillant red/orange red. It's warm and has no blue or purple in it. Absolutely stunning and sophistacated!
