I love it
I love how this lipstick glides on so smoothly and delivers full color in one swipe. It feels comfortable, lasts for hours, and even leaves a pretty stain when it fades. The packaging is gorgeous too — it’s become one of my go-to

Great lipstick
I couldn’t resist and bought this one. The packaging looks so pretty. The formula is creamy, glides on the lips and is long-lasting. The colour is very pigmented with a satin finish. I love it

Ticks all the boxes for me
I received the NARS Explicit lipstick in shade Unauthorized for my honest review, and I'm absolutely in love! As a huge fan of a bold red lip, I look for high pigmentation, a satin finish, and long-lasting comfort, and this lipstick delivered on all fronts. The colour is incredibly vibrant and provided the perfect punch of red. Best of all, I didn't have to reapply throughout the day, and it didn't smudge or feather. This lipstick truly ticks all the boxes for me! ♥️

The Perfect Red for me!
The PERFECT shade of Red for me! The pigmentation in this lipstick is just DEVINE! Such a smooth application & the finish is the perfect formula I was looking for. A comfortable lipstick that lasts through out the day

Bold
I received a deluxe sample in the shade unauthorised to test and I would describe it as an orange leaning bold red.
The pigment is very good with good coverage and it's very comfortable on the lips with no bleeding around lip edges.
It does require touch ups throughout the day, it's definitely not the most long lasting but that's not a mega issue for me.
Overall I'm very impressed with how this performs.
