Hello, Tonkin! I've been wanting to meet you since a year ago, but you are sold very expensively in Indonesia since we don't have NARS counter. Even for pre-order at the trusted online store, you...

I'm NARS Gobi/Deauville with red hair and green eyes. I have pure matte in Amsterdam, and I like that formula - it is not that drying for matte and it lasts all day if needed. I was eyeing...

I am on my second tube of Tonkin now. It is a goto everyday lipstick for me. When at Sephora I knew I was looking for a matte nude lip color. Although I wouldn't describe this color as nude it is a...

For reference I am shade Barcelona in their Sheet Matte and Powder foundation. This color is so flattering, sort of looks like a MLBB. I imagine this shade would work with a lot of skin tones. This...

I think this might be my most favourite matte lipstick formula of all time. It's matte but not drying, incredibly long-lasting (4+ hours on me - most lipsticks do not last 2 hours on me), and the...

This is one of my favorite lips for the winter/fall. The color of the lipstick is very hard to describe, but I'll give it my best. In the tube, Tonkin is a muted rosey peach that pulls EVER so...

Love these and I am overall not a fan of the regular Nars matte lipsticks. This color is a MLBB for me. My lips are naturally quite pink so I imagine that's why it shows up as it's described on me....
