Love the shade, it's been discontinued as far as I can tell- what a shame. Nordy, please get your money back from your shipping service-they delayed delivery multiple times and my heart can't take it </3

My No.1 Lipstick

My go-to lipstick for everyday wear! It lasts all day without needing to top up, and I get so many compliments whenever I wear it. The shade Tease Me is perfect for everyday wear and goes with everything. I’ve been wearing it for 3 years now and wouldn’t be without it – an absolute must-have in my makeup bag! ❤️

Long-Lasting and Non-Drying Matte!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] NARS nailed the formula on this one. It applies so smoothly, sets into a sleek matte finish, and doesn't smudge or bleed. The color payoff is beautiful and lasts through food and drinks!

Best everyday wear

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Glides smoothly and love the color. Everyday wear even for brown skin. Packaging is also nice.

Gorgeous pigment

I love how pigmented and creamy these are. They glide on the lips effortlessly! They are super comfortable to wear too, not drying. Great value for money as you get a good amount of product.

Glides on so smoothly

This shade (Highway to Hell) is a stunning deep berry red that feels bold, sophisticated and perfect for both day and evening wear. It glides on effortlessly with rich pigmentation in just one swipe and sets to a comfortable matte finish without feeling heavy. I love how lightweight it feels and it stays looking fresh for hours with minimal transfer. If you’re looking for a long-lasting matte lipstick with a gorgeous, statement-making colour, Highway to Hell is definitely worth trying!

Go to lipstick

I love Nars Powermatte lipsticks - they're the most long lasting lipsticks I've tried and they don't dry out my lips. I bought Tainted Love as an everyday red/brown colour that's softer on me than full on red and I wear it a lot. I think the colour would suit everyone. Even when I don't top it up, it fades naturally without being patchy. Would definitely recommend this colour and the lipstick line in general.
