Happy Spring Equinox! For the first official day of spring, I wanted to feature a gorgeous and trendy lip color for this season. NARS Satin Lip Pencil in “Jardin de Plantes” is a flirty, fearless, fun fuchsia shade that will stand out. These NARS Satin Lip Pencils are a brand new release, and they are so full of pigment. They feel so soft and lovely on the lips, and I can honestly say that I still want a few of the other shades from the line. Check out “Jardin de Plantes” inside,
Jardin de Plantes is a bright, hot fuchsia with a bit of a sheen and reflect to it. The reflect is just barely noticeable when light hits it, but it makes the color look even more “on fire” than usual. It’s incredibly bright and fun for the warmer months, and I can’t wait to wear this with bronzed skin and some mascara. Simple, clean, effortless makeup that also manages to be bold.
The actual formula was incredibly pleasing. It applied super smooth and with just one swipe there was saturated color. My lips felt hydrated but not overly glossy, which I liked. The texture is similar to lipstick once applied and it sets on your lips.
I think this is a particularly bold shade that is perfect to wear with neutral clothing colors this spring like white and cream. This is personally something I’d throw on my lips on a Saturday with my hair in a ponytail or braid, and very little other makeup on.
Overall: Even if “Jardin de Plantes” is too bright and bold for your taste, the NARS Satin Lip Pencils are worth checking out. There are thirteen shades in total to choose from, so there’s sure to be one that you love. The formula is creamy, smooth, and hydrating, but also wears like a lipstick on your lips. The only perceivable downside is that you will need to sharpen the product once it wears down. If NARS had added a twist up function to the pencils, it would have been great!
The NARS Satin Lip Pencils are available in thirteen shades and can be purchased at NARS counters nationwide, as well as online as NARS website. Each pencil retails for $25.00 USD.
