NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Cruella

About

The NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Cruella is a vibrant red shade designed to provide a comfortable, matte finish. It is part of NARS' iconic Velvet Matte range, known for its rich pigmentation and velvety texture. This lip pencil is ideal for creating a bold, red lip look that suits various skin tones. The formula is enriched with emollients to maintain a creamy texture while ensuring a long-lasting, seamless color. Cruella is a neutral-toned, medium-dark red with cool undertones, offering semi-opaque coverage that applies smoothly without tugging on the lips. It is a permanent shade in the NARS collection, priced at $27 for 0.08 oz. The pencil design allows for precise application, whether used for lining or filling in the lips. While it may require touch-ups after meals, it generally lasts well and does not dry out the lips, thanks to its moisturizing ingredients.
