This is the perfect blue-based red lip color for my very tan, olive skin! Applies creamily and dries not completely matte, but with a velvet-matte finish. Long lasting, even through eating,...

Not overly impressed with this one. The color is beautiful but it does not stay put. It is very smooth but it's a mess even with primer. It does feel nice on though. If it were a bit easier to work...

I have been going through this phase of finding the perfect true red matte lip product and I bought this out of impulse through the Nordstrom website. It is a true red, like many other reviewers...

As all NARS products, this is highly pigmented. It lasts a very long time (9 hours more or less) and it lt fades to a nice lip stain. It looks like a natural flush on your lips. This is a review...

I also received this as my birthday gift through Sephora, along with a cooler shade of pink. It applies smoothly to my lips and the color is intense and pigmented. I can see this working on many...

I love this! it's a great matte red! It's creamy, and doesn't drag on the lips. I wish it lasted a bit longer, it lasts about three hours on me. But it's non drying so i'll take the slightly lower...

So pretty, I love it. Got this as a Sephora gift, it's my first Nars. I like how this feels & looks on my lips. I may even purchase a FS in the future.

Like many others, I have gotten this as a birthday gift from Sephora. The only thing I like about this product is the shade. Pros: It's a rather beautiful shade of red - pretty dark and vampy....

I usually only use lip stains, since I have super dry lips (so I can put balms over them). I received this as a free birthday gift from Sephora and really like it! It's a perfect, dramatic red. ...

My only con to this is I hate sharpening stuff. But for a matte lippy it truly IS velvet. Not drying. But I can wear like the MAC retro mattes so I wasn't expecting this to be a problem. From like...

Got this for the birthday gift from Sephora. It's so creamy and easy to apply. I love the difference between this and a standard lipstick. The shade is quite dark & dramatic with my pale skin but I...

A darkish, very glam red lip with a 40s movie-star vibe. I have very pale olive skin, and the berry-red tones are very flattering. Also, it lasts super, super long, without drying out your lips...

Confession: I am a helpless addict to red lip products. I own about a dozen or so beauties that are varying shades and hues of red. So, naturally, when I saw that this was a part of Sephora's...

Great lip pencil. Doesn't try lips out like some "Matte" products tend to do. The colour is extremely gorgeous and the packaging is very pleasing. I also own this in the shade train bleu which is...

Amazing red that lasts and doesn't feather. So easy to apply and such a nice feeling texture on the lips. Love this product, will get more reds for sure.

A nice blue based red, but I need something warmer. It rubbed off on me sooner than I thought it should as well, which really is more a problem to me than the color preference. Hence a 3.
