Volga is very nice vampy shade, very unique. I found this vampy lips very wearable. It glides like a dream for the first swipe, very opaque and matte. Too bad about 2 hour this made my lips dry,...

This is the perfect vampy lippy. It's so bold and substantial and matte. It's very 90's and for that I adore it. I always gravitated towards more red-based bold lipsticks and while I loved them...

This is my go-to lipstick. Nars pure matte is one of the best matte formulas around- less drying than a lot of other brands out there. Volga is a deep aubergine, and I'm on my third tube already!...

This is the most expensive lipstick that I've bought and it wasn't really worth it to be honest. The colour is very beautiful: a dark plum/wine colour. However, it did not cover all of my lips. I...

I bought this yesterday at Nordstorms. I wanted a lipstick similar to MAC Lip Attitude, C11 made in France, that I wear everyday. The first thing that i noticed about this lipstick was the small...

I would recommend this lipstick to any avid purple lipstick fiend. I am on my first tube, and unfortunately lost the cap a month ago. Lipstick is still fine and I wear it regularly. 25 dollars...

I'm a big fan of the Pure Matte line, and this colour is one of my favourites (I love dark lipstick). It applies very smoothly, with excellent colour payoff and doesn't budge. I do have to make...

This is STUNNING. I am very pale but I have always wanted to find a dark lip that doesn't make me look goth. This is just right. It is a purplish wine color. Like a darker version of the Never Say...

I love how the color on the stick is the color you'll get on your lips. This one def. looks like it shows on the stick- colorwise. It's a very deep wine color that dramatizes any look.. and is a...

I love this lipstick. The color is gorgeous (classic vampy) and it lasts FOREVER. It is a bit drying though so I deducted one star. Not the fault of the product, but the aging process - it...

Lately I have been experimenting with bright, unusual colors like fuchsia and bright purple, but I've never been brave enough to try a bold, dark color such as this (at least not in public), until...
