So my birthday is this upcoming Tuesday and one of the things I was most looking forward to is the Beauty Insider gift this year. I know, lame, but I'm turning 20 and I feel not too excited about growing up. When I found out that the birthday gift this years was two NARS lip pencils I couldn't wait for February. You get a
Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Cruella (OMG) and a
Satin Lip Pencil in Rikugien.
Cruella is described as a scarlet red, it's the most perfect red I've come across. It neither leans too blue or orange, it sits perfectly in the middle. It is dark, but not vampy and I am in love. The lasting power of this baby is ridiculous. I wore it to class all day and then straight to work, so around 9 hours of wear. Rikugien is a rose pink. The satin formula is beautiful and moisturizing, but obviously not as long lasting.
I definitely want to pick up some more of these beautiful pencils, are there any colours you love?
