NARS Explicit Lipstick 4.2g (Various Shades)

Launched in 1994 by French make up artist and photographer François Nars, NARS has remained at the forefront of the beauty space with its collection of trend-led, high-performance covetable cosmetics (not to mention cheeky shade names too). Initially starting with 12 lipsticks, the brand has gone on to develop the Explicit Lipstick (4.2g), a highly pigmented formula that grants your pout with a multidimensional satin finish.

Gliding onto lips for long-lasting, comfortable wear, NARS' Explicit Lipstick (4.2g) offers intense-pigment payoff with a satin finish.

Available in a range of shades from classic reds and deep browns to rich berries and sultry nudes, this hydrating formula hugs lips in creamy, medium-to-full coverage colour while conditioning your pout. How? Well, it calls on rosehip seed oil and hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture and plump alongside squalane, which protects your delicate moisture barrier. Oh, and did we mention it has a precision-tip bullet to effortlessly define, contour and sculpt the lips? The hardest part will be which colour to go for first...
