I received this as a birthday gift from Sephora, as well as the Matte Lip pencil in Cruella. This shade is more wearable (at least for me). I don't rock red on a daily basis and Cruella is...

The color is sort of like a nude color for me but does have some shimmer/shine feel to it. I use this for a simple everyday look. It's perfect!

How this is getting decent reviews I will never know. The colour is barely noticeable, and lasts for maybe an hour? Waste of money imo, a million better options out there for a fraction of...

I received this as a birthday gift from Sephora, and although the formula is ok, the color really doesn’t do anything for me. I am NC15 with pigmented lips, but Rikugien is just a little too dark...

Tons of people have been reviewing this because they're getting it as the Sephora bday gift, and I don't have much else to say. It's pretty great: a flattering rosy shade with some shimmer,...

I have a love-hate relationship with this pencil. I love the color and the texture. It makes my lips soft and supple. But it has like no staying power! It's gone in about two hours. I don't think...

Like a lot of others I got this free from Sephora as a birthday giveaway. I love the color. Definitely MLBB for me. For reference pretty middle of the road NC 30 with cool undertones. Some shimmer...

Ooh boy. Well, like most other people here, I got this as part of my '15 Sephora VIB Birthday Gift. I haven't been impressed with NARS products in the past, so I didn't expect to like this. I...

This has replaced fairest nude as the best nude for my complexion and I loved that lipstick. This flatters my complexion much more and makes my lips look plump with a nice pearl finish. It is so so...

Received in BDay Sephora gift. I like it, a MLBB for me (NW25) actually reminds me a lot of MAC Syrup. I wouldn't repurchase as I love Syrup so much but it's very nice and I do appreciate the...

I received this as part of my birthday gift from Sephora. I LOVE it! It goes on very smoothly and gives the perfect amount of shine and color. It's a color-step above my natural lip color, so it's...

I am enamored with Sephora's birthday gift for 2015 -- generous samples of NARS Matte Lip Pencil in Cruella and this, their Satin Lip Pencil in Rikugien. Rikugien is a muted soft pink that makes me...

This one I like! I wasn't to excited for the color at first, it looked a bit boring but it's lovely. It goes on very smooth and seems to stay fairly well too. It's a nice subtle almost natural pink...

Love this pencil too, I can see why Nars is popular. Not sure if I'd buy this one FS though, only because I pref darker colors.

Beautiful neutral color on me, a pinky beige with just enough shimmer to have dimension but not obvious glitter. It's not five lippies because the color only wears for about 2 hours on me and the...

I do not own any NARS products, so I was really excited when I saw that Sephora has these lip pencils as the birthday gift. This one is very disappointing. Just for reference, I am NC20 and...

A really lovely MLBB shade against my fair skin. Lasts a couple hours at least. I do wish it twisted up instead of needing sharpened as that can be a bit of a pain. I can see myself repurchasing.

A nice MLBB for me, with a bit of frost so it does not look drab. I may buy this full size. Wish it wore longer, but at least the color does not seep beyond my lips like a lot do.
