  Pros

  The quality does not feel inferior to the price, and I feel like I'm getting my money's worth. I'm particularly pleased with how smoothly and creamily it applies while still having decent staying power! I recommend it. The Cruella shade is a muted burgundy color, but for some reason, it applies much more lightly compared to similar shades in other lipsticks - you have to layer it several times to get the full, deep color. Yet despite the deep color, it applies evenly without any patchiness, making it seem like the star student of lipsticks. I think this is a perfect product that checks all the boxes - color, texture, and staying power. The texture is truly remarkable - when you apply it with your finger, it has this soft, cloud-like glide, unlike the typical 'swish swish' of regular lipsticks. I'd say this is the kind of lipstick you have to try at least once in your lifetime - it's just that impressive. I'm of the mindset that as long as a makeup product is good, the scent doesn't matter to me. But in case anyone's curious, it has a vintage rouge-like fragrance that reminds me of playing on my mom's vanity as a child - a perfumed scent that I personally enjoy. I'm planning to repurchase this.

  Cons

  Since there's no staining, if you're expecting a long-lasting stained type, you may be disappointed.

  Pros

  Among the 3 red-toned Nas lip pencils I have, this Cruella color is the most vibrant red. This matte lip pencil applies smoothly and evenly for a natural, soft look. The pigmentation is not too strong, but can be built up for a more intense color. For those who want a stronger, bolder look, you can apply it a couple of times. This is a color I use often on its own. When fully applied, it gives off a chic, sometimes even sexy vibe. I prefer the pencil form over regular lipsticks as it makes lining the lips easier. I think this color looks better when applied all over the lips rather than using a gradient effect.

  Cons

  The hassle of having to sharpen it... Feeling heartbroken when seeing the color getting shaved off along with the pencil.

  Pros

  The velvety matte feeling is so satisfying!! It melts into my lips and just a small amount covers my entire lips like rolling out a red carpet. I found where I put it in my vanity and tried it on again - it's amazing! This is like dried rose petals.

  Cons

  I only tried the sample size, so the amount was small...but the price range for a repurchase is....ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

  Pros

  The Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil lived up to its reputation, with excellent application, matte finish, and lasting power.

  Cons

  It feels a bit too mature for my skin tone. It's almost like a 6-year-old wearing their mom's red lipstick, you know? It looks much nicer when applied in a gradated way rather than as a full lip.
