features, strengths, and some caveats of NARS Powermatte Lip Pigment (Liquid Lipstick):
🎨 Key Features & Formula Highlights
-
Intense pigment & full coverage
The formula uses a “Power Pigment Complex” (or “Fluid Pigment Complex”) to deliver saturated, opaque color in just one swipe. -
Matte / “extreme matte” finish
Once it sets, it dries down to a true matte, smudge-resistant finish. -
Lightweight / comfortable feel
Despite being a matte liquid, it’s designed to feel light and “zero-gravity” on the lips (i.e. not heavy or stiff) Flexible / move-with-the-lip formula
The formula aims to move with the lips rather than crack or look stiff -
Longwear / lock-in performance
It’s built to last, resisting smudging and bleeding once dry. -
Precision applicator
Comes with a custom doe-foot applicator that allows precise lining and filling in with ease. -
Wide shade range
Available in multiple shades (nudes, reds, berries, deeper tones) to suit different skin tones. -
“Shake well before use”
Because of its liquid / pigment concentrate nature, the product must be shaken before application to ensure even color distribution. -
Staining potential
High pigmentation means it can stain lips (and even clothing if spilled), so one must be careful when applying and removing.
