NARS Raw Love Lipstick ($26.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a muted, light-medium rosy taupe with subtle, warm undertones and a semi-matte finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which applied evenly and smoothly with moderate pressure and a smidgen of tugging--just not to the point where it was painful or even uncomfortable. The lipstick felt lightweight and thin, but it didn't cling or catch on imperfections on my lips. It stayed on nicely for four and a half hours and felt non-drying
