Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil

Average member rating of 7.6
Average member rating
Rated a 8.5
This highly pigmented, chubby crayon delivers long-lasting wear with some moisture. The rich matte finish works remarkably well in the strong reds, though any of the colors can be topped with gloss. (Just know this affects length of wear.) Vitamin E and silicone help you forget you're wearing rich color. A pencil makes for pretty precise application -- but eventually you'll be reaching for a Nars custom-sized sharpener (which you must buy separately -- boo).

    Finally! A Matte Lipstick That Doesn't Feel Dry

    by shriekingviolet (12 reviews)
    I love the way matte lips look, but so often they apply less smoothly than other finishes because they're of a drier consistency AND can feel dry and uncomfortable on. But not with these!

December 12, 2007, 11:51 pm I love the way matte lips look, but so often they apply less smoothly than other finishes because they're of a drier consistency AND can feel dry and uncomfortable on. But not with these! These pencils really do feel like Velvet. The glide on so smoothly and feel soft on your lips. They're of a creamier consistency than most matte items I've tried, but it doesn't show much. The more forgiving texture doesn't compromise the matte finish. Or the wear. Matte lipsticks typically stay on longer than other types of lipstick and this one is no different. My only real complaint is that the color selection for these is rather limited! I'd love it if they added more shades. December 12, 2007, 11:51 pm

    Turning out to be a staple in my purse...

October 26, 2007, 3:46 pm I am liking the pencil more and more, much to my surprise - I find it's the first one I reach for on a regular basis because it's easy to apply, the color goes on smoothly and it's comfortable to wear. It says it's a matte color, but it does have a lovely soft sheen to it. Goes on like a very moisturizing lip pencil, and stays put reasonably well. It is a bother to have to sharpen it - I kept forgetting to get it out of my purse when I was home, so that was a pain - but I found that any sharpener that can accomodate a chubby pencil will usually work on this one, too. Easy, convenient and great colors...a keeper! October 26, 2007, 3:46 pm

    Handy tool for your purse

    by coinma (90 reviews)
    I really liked this pencil. It is one of the few lipsticks that I actually use on a regular basis. It is convenient because you don't need a separate liner or need to use a lip brush. The color wears fairly well and fades off evenly. It is richly pigmented and moisturizing so that is a comfortable matte finish. December 11, 2007, 3:08 pm

    It's good, but I'm still looking for the best.

    by neptunegirl (18 reviews)
    I've had these in several colors and the pigments are excellent. I feel they are drying though... but that's usually the case with anything that pigmented. I'm still in search of one that doesn't! October 27, 2008, 7:34 am

    Rich Color

    by Stef42678 (176 reviews)
    The bold colors of this lip pencil serve as the perfect base for your favorite lip gloss. It adds lots of definition to your lips and moisturizes for rich color all day. October 27, 2008, 1:41 am

    smooth & rich color

    by EllenDeChant (8 reviews)
    I purchased this as a liner but it doesn't have the staying power to be used as one. It DOES have a great velvet texture and is an easy lipstick to use. I add gloss and think the color is rich. September 27, 2008, 11:05 am
