It's not that sharpening is a hassle, but when the lip gets shaved down, my heart gets shaved down too.

It's a complete life-saver! It's convenient to carry, high-quality, and applies beautifully.

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

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.

The downside is that I had to buy a pencil sharpener separately.
And I accidentally bought a cool-toned red, which doesn't suit my warm undertones :(
When it wears off, it leaves a burgundy-ish stain.

I bought the darkest pencil at the duty-free shop as requested!
However, it seemed a bit too cool-toned.
But it's actually quite nice - it's matte yet hydrating, and doesn't emphasize flaky skin as much as I expected.

The downside is that it's a pencil that needs to be sharpened, which makes it inconvenient to use.

The lip pencil has a slightly cool and deep pink-red color.
It's an attractive and uncommon red shade.

For those with warm skin tones, it's also a good idea to apply a slightly coral blush rather than a pink blush. That way, it won't look too overpowering.

The Nars lip pencil is a renowned product, but I found that I needed to apply another lip product as a base when using this one. It was a bit disappointing (too matte).

I liked the sophisticated deep red color. The coral color was not too dull or too vivid, so I was satisfied.

While it applies smoothly, it also wears down quite easily.
As it's a product that needs to be sharpened, I feel bad having to sharpen it each time.

The dark and deep red creates a moody and atmospheric look.
It applies very smoothly and blendably.

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

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.

Apply a lip balm before putting on the lipstick, and you'll get beautiful lips💋

The need for a separate pencil sharpener is a bit inconvenient ㅜ
If my lips are dry, there is some tugging, which is a shame ㅜ
The matte formula can be drying..?

The pigmentation is great, making it perfect for daily use!
It has a matte yet lightweight feel, which is right up my alley ;)

Applying Dolce Vita and then just on the inner part of the lips looks lovely!

It has almost no staying power :( Even though the color is quite dark, it wears off almost completely when I eat.

The product is certainly expensive, but it applies smoothly without feeling sticky, which is a nice feature!

When sharpening with a pencil sharpener, it's heartbreaking to see the lipstick getting shaved off along with it.

The color looks beautiful when applied~ It's convenient to carry around since it's a pencil, which I like.

If you properly moisturize your lips and apply it, it will definitely spread smoothly without any clumping!

The only downside was that it was a bit too matte, which sometimes caused it to emphasize flaky skin and clump up, so I didn't reach for it as often.

As expected, Nars really nailed the color, with 97% satisfaction in the pigmentation itself. When I applied it together with the 'Damde' product from the same lip pencil line, it gave an even deeper color that I really liked.
