1. It seems like it would be good to create an autumnal atmosphere 2. It's moisturizing and has good glide
Cons
1. The ingredients are disappointing, but most cosmetics don't have great ingredients, so I just bought it anyway

The burgundy lip color is great because it's not common. You don't need to apply a lot, just a little bit and blend it out - it looks really pretty that way. It's not drying, which is nice.
Cons
It's a bit disappointing that the color is a bit dark for spring and summer.

It's quite amazing how they extract these colors. Those who want these colors will likely be 200% satisfied.
Cons
There aren't any...?? There really aren't any. I'd rather be disappointed and try to save money next time.
Tip
Daily looks are nice too. Deepening the eyes and gently pressing the lips also looks pretty. They're all just so beautiful, really.

It's perfect for cool-toned people in winter. It's not too deep, but just the right amount of redness, so it looks beautiful when applied to the lips.
Cons
(Possibly from using tint) Even in the summer, my lips have a bit of peeling.
Tip
Applying some lip balm made it better.

This wine-colored liner has a hint of purple that I would recommend to those who want to wear a wine or burgundy color but are worried it might be too bold. The Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil has a strong color payoff, but this one applies softly and naturally, blending smoothly onto the lips. It's a great color to use when you want to add a subtle, natural-looking touch of color without feeling too made up. I have a lot of deep, wine-toned shades, and this is one of my most-reached-for as it applies so effortlessly and gives such a lovely, understated look. You can wear this all over the lips, but it also looks beautiful when applied with a gradient effect, starting deeper at the edges and fading towards the center. I also like to pair this with my Never Say Never lip color, using that all over and then adding a touch of this in the center for a pretty ombré effect.
Cons
The hassle of having to sharpen it. Having to watch the color get whittled away each time you sharpen it is frustrating.

I thought the color was too bold, but by applying it sparingly on the inner part of the lips and blending it well, it works great as a statement lip. The dryness is about the usual level for a pencil, and it's not too severe.
Cons
You should exfoliate well in advance so that the pencil doesn't accentuate any flaky skin when applied.

The color is unique and pretty. It looks good with a gradient, but the full lip doesn't suit it well. Compared to Dragon Girl, it has much fewer active ingredients.
Cons
It's matte, so it's good for summer, but the color is more suitable for fall and winter. However, it's too drying to use in the winter.

As a lip product enthusiast, I really wanted to have a unique color, and this product perfectly fulfilled that desire. Haha I'm someone who doesn't usually suit deep colors very well, and this product is no exception. Haha But the reason I love this so much is that when I feel like I need a change of mood or want to add more depth to my makeup, just a light swipe on the inner part of my lips makes it look so pretty... I even applied it to my friend's lips, and she said she really likes it. Haha The reason this is good for me is that I would never wear such a color fully on my lips, so the fact that it's in a pencil form and I can just use it on the inner part is really great! And on some days, I just wear lip balm and then use this for a gradient effect, and it looks so pretty that way too.
Cons
Since the color is a bit intense, I have to admit that I don't reach for it that often. Haha I think I've been using it for about 2 years, and I've never even sharpened it... Haha so in that sense, the cost-effectiveness isn't that great.

It's a must-have, a basic item that gives me peace of mind to refill when it's used up. The application is so smooth and nice, but to be honest, the drawbacks outweigh the benefits. Yet, I can't give it up because the color is so appealing. I really love the plum burgundy lip shades, but no matter what I apply, I always end up going back to the damp look.
Cons
Even though it applies smoothly, being a matte lipstick by nature, it accentuates lip flakiness. At first, I thought a matte lipstick this comfortable to wear could be usable, but over time, my lips become dry and feel parched. And if I try to layer a lip balm or something else on top, the signature damp look disappears, so I can't even apply anything extra. The only way is to thoroughly hydrate and exfoliate my lips before applying the lipstick.
Tip
I think this product has an unusually high degree of individual color variation. You really have to try it on yourself to see how it looks. No matter how much I search online swatches, it's hard to predict how the color will look on my own lips. The photos I uploaded may look quite similar to the actual color on the computer, but on the phone, the pink undertone looks way too strong.

My lips are sensitive, so I prefer a moisturizing formula, but it ended up being quite dry.
Cons
If your lips are dry, I would not recommend this product to those who prefer a moisturizing formula.
