These last 2 weeks I’ve been searching for a subtle lip shade for daily use apart from my usual nudes and pinks. It took me a while to pick one cos I wanted to try a brand I haven’t owned before, and yet I’m back to using Nars. Not complaining, this relationship is for keeps because Nars has really an undeniably ultra-versatile range of gorgeous lip shades with velvety matte finish. Here are some of the Nars velvet matte swatches that got me drooling

I love its blushed, old rose pigment with a hint of mauve. It is long lasting, non-drying, enriched with Vitamin E and yes Nars is a cruelty-free brand.

Overall, the formula is extra-creamy but it can bleed a little so make sure you fix the lipline with a liner or if you’re like me – use a tissue. I highly recommend Nars Sex Machine to anyone looking for a perfect everyday shade that’s not too distracting but still gives you that flattering aura.

This shade goes well with my basic white tee, pastel outfits and even a little black dress day.

That’s for now ladies. Stay tuned for more beauty and skin care reviews about brands and products I trust.
Stay lovely 🙂
