As you can see, it gives a gorgeous raspberry type colour to the lips, not too red or purple toned, just somewhere in the middle. The finish is matte but it's described as velvet matte, which I can totally understand! The matte effect isn't drying at all, and like the description my lips feel smooth and soft after applying this. I feel like it's appropiate for day wear as it's not too bright. I think it goes with any kind of make up look, and definitely suits any kind of skin tone! I'm very pale, and I think it works well with my complexion.
Final note, as I explained earlier about MAC's Plumful lipstick: if you love that lipstick but wish it was just that little bit more opaque and longer lasting, this is your solution!
You can find this for sale at Space NK here
Do you like this colour? Have you tried any of NARS' lip pencils before?
