Sensual and subtle, get the perfect shine to your lips with the NEW Nars Afterglow Sensual Shine Lipstick

Nars recently released their Afterglow collection, and I love the whole vibe. Therefore, I had to try the Sensual Shine lipsticks – rich in luminous shades and creamy textures.

The Afterglow Sensual Shine Lipstick

Yet another range of lip products has been added to the Afterglow range, and here is all you need to know about hybrid lipsticks.

This range is a combination of makeup and skincare actives. These lightweight lipsticks glide on like a dream, offering a massive 8-hour hydrating action to the lips. If you are a fan of subtle makeup, then this range's buildable coverage and beautiful sheen will surely leave you smiling. Also, the formula is enriched with highly nourishing benefits and antioxidants, bringing comfort and flexibility to lipsticks.

The soft texture is non-sticky and smooths fine lines for a fuller-looking lip. Moreover, the afterglow sensual lipsticks exist in ten shades ranging from light pink to deep purple.

What's Inside?

• Mango and Shea Butter: This duo helps retain moisture and nourish the lips throughout the day. Ideal for dry lips.
• Monoi hydrating complex: Adding a velvety finish to your lipstick adds long-lasting comfort.

What is The Difference Between The Afterglow “Shine Products”?

If you are wondering what is different about this lipstick than the other two shiny lip products in the Afterglow range, let me tell you about it.

Although they all deliver a shine to the lip, the sensual lipsticks have a more dimensional shine. Thus, adding volume to the lips.

Similar in sensation, the lipstick allows a more precise application and can be built up to obtain a sheer-to-medium coverage.

My Review

The sensual lipstick range caught my eye in the store, and so I purchased three different shades:

• Shades 209 On Edge: A warm pink
• 225 Show Off: A deep mahogany
• 217 Truth or Dare: A luminous coral

I love creamy lipsticks and often opt for a soft no-makeup makeup look. These lipsticks are perfect for a smooth shine to the lip and a gentle pop of colour. Also, it was the packaging that got my attention, as it has a sleek design to it.

The Powermatte Lipstick

Nars is back at it and brings out another show stopper. This comfortable creamy texture is jam-packed and full of pure pigments. Do you know what that means? You can get full coverage and intense, bold colours in one swipe. The lipstick transforms from a cream to a matte finish without drying the lips. Available in 15 shades, the power matte offers 10-hour wear. The 15 shades look amazing on all skin variations. Ranging from pinks and beige to red tints. Let's take a closer look inside.

The new formula Used by Nars offers all the correct elements: comfort, intensity and long-lasting results. To do so, Nars enriched their lipsticks with the Power pigment complex.

A blend of pigments combines rich emollient oils and a colour-locking ingredient. When applied, the lip reveals a dense colour that effortlessly glides on.

My Review

On my out-and-about trips, I stumbled across the brand new range from Nars. With the new season beginning, It was time to treat myself. Let's start by saying, what a gem! The lipsticks themselves are beautifully designed. I tried on three different shades and decided to go with “Too hot to hold”. The reason I bought this lipstick is that the application was so easy. With a thinner stick, I could cover my whole lip in a single swipe and create neat contours. Powermatte offers full coverage that quickly mattifies on the lip. With a zero-weight texture, I was comfortable throughout the day. The lipsticks also have a high resistance to transfers which is great for those on the go.

I would 100% recommend these lipsticks for those who want a matte finish that doesn't dry your lips or feel like a paste. You can also apply less or more depending on the desired look. I sometimes forgot I even had it on.

Another new launch I am currently enjoying from the brand is Laguna Bronzing Cream. It is so easy to apply and looks very natural.
