NARS Satin Lip Pencil




I thought I would share with you my favourite lipstick of the moment. I have to admit I do love a bright lip and this little beauty gives me just that. The NARS Satin Lip Pencil comes in 20 different shades from subtle nudes, soft sparkling pinks or bold vibrant shades. They are packaged in a matte black pencil with a colour swatch on the tail end. Today I am going to show you the shade Luxembourg which is named after Luxembourg Gardens in Paris.




NARS Satin Lip Pencil In Luxembourg is a vivid watermelon colour. This jumbo lip pencil can be used for lining the lip, as well as an all over lip colour and the pencil makes for a super easy application, with a long-lasting satin finish. The pencil glides effortlessly over the lip and you can create the shape of your own lips perfectly with it. I like how the pencil itself remains in shape, so it doesn't go all mushy or squashed when applying to your lips. I love how it feels on my lips, as it is so lightweight, non sticky and creamy.  It is so unbelievably moisturising, as it uses vitamin E to nourish and soothe, helping to create a fuller looking lip, that doesn't give you that dry feeling that you get with some other lipsticks. I am pleasantly surprised with the colour as it gives your lips a great bold look, it complimented a simple face of makeup. However, I am looking forward to wearing it with a smokey smoldering eye on a night out. Once applied, it lasted for a good 5 hours or so and once the shine wears away, my lips remained stained and heavily pigmented. You will need to top up after eating or drinking though.


I've tried to show you the colour as best as I could and as you can see on me, the colour is a lovely, bright fuchsia. I would say it is mixed with a red tone rather than a watermelon red, as the NARS website describes. Just like all lipsticks the pigment changes based on your own lip tone. I am a massive NARS fan and after buying this I can tell you I am a even bigger fan! The price comes in at £18 which is a lot to spend, I think, on a lipstick but after wearing this and falling in love with it's gorgeous satin, long-lasting finish, I am so glad that I bought it. I would highly recommend these stunning lip pencils and I will be definitely adding more colours to my collection. 

Have you tried the NARS Satin Lip Pencil? What do you think of the shade Luxembourg?

    1. Thanks lovely :) it's such a lovely colour but if you're worried it's to bright, why don't you try one of the lighter colours? To be fair I've lost all my summer tan and it still looks okay :) xx
