The new NARS Soft Matte Tinted Lip Balm collection is pretty unique because most sheer colour balms are glossy. I have them here to show you with photos and swatches. I think you will like them.
NARS have a great track record when it comes to lip balm. I absolutely love their Afterglow Lip Balms. They are perfect for a quick hit of moisture with easy-to-wear colour.

My Review
Even though this is a matte formula, it is super comfortable on the lips and feels nourishing and hydrating. The texture is easy to apply and slides over the lips easily for a quick look.
One swipe gives a lovely modern-looking diffused finish. It looks like a soft stain with moisturised juiciness, if you know what I mean?
I think that Unrestricted is a perfect nude for my skin tone, and delivers that ‘my lips but better’ kiss of colour that’s shaping and volumising. I’m a big fan of that one and have popped it in my handbag.
