NARS | Digital World Lip Pencil Coffret

There is nothing more thrillingly exciting to a beauty blogger than discovering a pretty, little bargain especially from the higher end brands, yes I mean you NARS lip pencils! Whenever you come across an amazing bargain it literally feels like you are on cloud nine sipping tea. When writing my Christmas list down to Santa last year I did a little bit of hunting on Space UK website, as you do. I was on the verge of caving in and to just ask for a pastel pink Fujifilm Instax mini. Until my eyes darted towards this little bargain of 5 NARS lip pencils (bearing in mind one full size costs £18), this set was £32. Bargain. Who needs a pretty camera for memories anyways?! 

When I received these on Christmas day the excitement was too much, comparison as to what a kid is like when they receive the latest toy. This NARS digital world lip pencil coffret set (a mouthful to type!) includes 5 different shades: Torres Del Paine, Descanso, Yu, Lberico and Cruella. The first 3 shades are satin finishes and the last 2 are matte velvets, which is great as I love variety! 

These are incredible for long last wear especially Cruella and Yu I thought the pigmentation was amazing. You know those dark lipsticks/pencils that tend to wear off after an hour or two but leave a lighter shade? For example, you wear dark purple lipstick and an hour later your lips mistakenly look pink or red?! Anyways, these do not do that the colour stays put and doesn't wear off as quick. I found myself only topping up once throughout the day so these lip pencils are incredible for long lasting.

These are also really easy for applying, I would describe them as a 'little goes a long way' (especially the darker tones). The consistency is great too they don't smudge off or feel drying on the lips either which is great because the weather in the UK is dreadfully cold therefore keeping those lips moisturized is essential. Plus I like knowing I don't have to worry about adding any lip balm throughout the day.

For all of you busy bee's who are wanting a quick review here are my pros/cons:

Pros:

Great value for money

Long lasting

Pigmentation is amazing

Easy to apply

Add a little moisture

A shade for every occasion

Appealing packaging

Cons:

Out of stock a lot

Require a sharpener

Overall, I am really happy I came across these and was able to receive them before they went out of stock as it seems as though a lot of other bloggers have snapped this little bargain up too. My favourite shades are definitely Cruella and Descanso so I know I would purchase the full sized pencil in the future.

Have you tried this set??
