But if you neutralize your lip color with concealer before applying, it transforms into the most gorgeous pink-tinted coral shade! I was so smitten when I tried it at the store that I bought it on the spot. Back home, I was confused at first, thinking I'd grabbed the wrong lipstick. The color wasn't the same as in the store when I applied it over my natural lip color or just dabbed some foundation on. No matter how many times I wiped it off and reapplied, it wasn't that beautiful shade I fell for! So I dashed back to the department store. At the counter, they showed me the trick: neutralize the lips with concealer first. Since I have quite defined lip lines, they suggested using a light-colored NARS pencil lipstick to blur the lip contour. When I followed these steps - boom! There was that color I'd fallen in love with. The secret is to completely neutralize your lip color with concealer, outline with the pencil lipstick, then apply Intrigue just in the center and blend outwards with your fingers. That's how you get that perfect shade! I ended up buying the NARS pencil lipstick too - it's in the shade 'Get Off'. It looks absolutely stunning when used to outline the lips before applying Intrigue.
ConsSince it's a matte lipstick, exfoliating is a must. The matte case easily picks up fingerprints and makeup stains. They don't wipe off easily either.
TipThe perfect application method: Neutralize lips with concealer + outline with 'Get Off' pencil + apply Intrigue in the center and blend with fingers or a cotton swab. The result is a beautiful pink-tinted coral that brightens up your whole face!
