Last all day
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Feels very creamy when first applied but then turns matte. I love it, it lasts all day no need for top ups.

Great!
I recently tried the NARS Sheer Lipstick and overall, it’s a really lovely everyday lip product.
The formula feels lightweight and comfortable on the lips, with a slightly glossy, sheer finish that gives a natural “your lips but better” look. It’s perfect if you don’t like anything too heavy or matte. I also noticed it has a nice conditioning feel, which makes it great for drier lips.
The pigmentation is buildable rather than intense, so it’s ideal for a soft, subtle look rather than full coverage. It applies smoothly and evenly, and the shades are really flattering for daily wear.
The only downside is that, because it’s sheer, it doesn’t last as long as more matte formulas and needs reapplying throughout the day. That said, it fades quite nicely and evenly.
Overall, it’s a great option if you’re looking for a hydrating, natural-looking lipstick. I’d definitely recommend it for everyday use.

So good
I’ve been loving this burnt red shade from NARS Cosmetics - it’s one of those colors that instantly makes you look put together without trying too hard. The formula feels really smooth going on, not drying at all, and it sits comfortably on the lips for hours. It’s bold but still very wearable, especially for everyday looks.

Lovely shade
Hydrating and comfortable! This lipstick glides on smoothly and doesn’t dry out the lips. The moisture-rich formula keeps your lips soft and supple throughout the day, which is a big plus if you’re someone who hates the drying feeling that comes with some matte formulas.
