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.
