NARS

Nars is a professional cosmetics brand that always makes the internet freak out for bold colors and names of its products. It offers a wide range of star products, including blushes, eyeshadows, and lipsticks. As one of Nars’ bestsellers, Audacious Lipstick is the award winner of Allure’s Best of Beauty. This lipstick is available in 29 shades on the official site to suit most skin tones. It has a creamy texture that glides on smoothly for a soft-matte finish. Pigmented and moisturizing, it will not dry out lips, suitable for those with dry lips. One customer wrote, "Whether you want a mauve, red or magenta lipstick, you can always find your fave at Nars." Infused with portulaca extract and white mushroom extract as well as tamanu oil, this lipstick works well to moisturize and smooth out lips for a shiny, fuller look without flakes or patches. This lipstick comes in the signature Nars matte-black metallic case with a magnet closure. Plus, Nars kindly offers a tutorial video for beginners. However, many customers complained it’s not long-lasting and transfer-resistant. So, be sure to set your makeup. Since it is a bit pricey, it’s recommended for those who have the budget to pay.
