The NARS Power Matte Lip Pigment in Warm Leatherette excels in delivering a striking matte lip. Its concentrated formula means a little goes a long way, providing an opaque brown shade that stands out.
Prep Your Lips: For the smoothest application and most comfortable wear, gently exfoliate your lips and apply a light, non-greasy lip balm. Allow the balm to absorb fully or blot off any excess before applying the pigment.
Precise Application: Use the custom applicator to line your lips first, then fill in. The pigment sets quickly, so work efficiently for a clean edge. For an extra crisp line, consider using a matching lip liner underneath.
Single Layer: One thin, even layer is usually sufficient for full color payoff. Avoid over-applying, as this can make the product feel heavier and potentially affect its wear time.
Everyday Wear: Perfect for a bold statement during the day, the Warm Leatherette shade holds up well through drinks and light conversation. Expect minimal need for touch-ups.
Evening Occasions: Its rich brown hue makes it an excellent choice for evening looks. The long-wearing nature means less worry about your lip color fading during events.
Maintenance: While designed for long wear, extreme friction or oily foods may cause some breakdown. For touch-ups, blot your lips and apply a small amount directly to the areas that need refreshing, rather than layering a thick new coat.
No specific setup is required beyond basic lip preparation. Ensure your lips are clean, smooth, and free of any oils or previous lip products to allow the pigment to adhere correctly.
Lip Liners: Compatible with most lip liners. Using a brown or nude liner can enhance definition and prevent feathering.
Other Lip Products: While it's a matte product, you can carefully layer a very thin, non-sticky clear gloss over it if you wish to temporarily alter the finish. Be aware this may reduce its long-wearing properties and transfer resistance.
Storage: Store the Power Matte Lip Pigment in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its consistency and efficacy.
Hygiene: Always apply to clean lips. Avoid sharing your lip pigment to prevent bacterial contamination.
Removal: Due to its long-wearing nature, an oil-based makeup remover or micellar water is recommended for gentle and complete removal at the end of the day.
