NARS Powermatte High Intensity Lip Pencil - #185 Cruella 2.4g

Meet Cruella—the bold, high-intensity lip color you can wear from desk to dinner without a touch of compromise. The NARS Powermatte High Intensity Lip Pencil in Cruella is a 2.4 g slim-line pencil engineered for precision, comfort, and seriously statement color that lasts.

Why this is different

• Power Pigment Complex infuses lips with dense, vivid color that reads true in every lighting condition and remains put through your day.
• Cream-to-matte texture glides on with silky ease and then settles into a transfer-proof matte finish, reducing smudges and the need for mid-day touch-ups.
• Lightweight, non-drying formula designed for all-day comfort, so even long calls and after-work drinks feel effortless on the lips.
• Slim-line precision profile delivers bold, clean lip lining and edge control, making it easy to create everything from a sharp contour to a daring all-over lip.
• 2.4 g Cruella shade offers a vivid red that commands attention while staying true to color as you move—from first swipe to final look.
• Made in the USA with a curated range of shades to suit different skin tones and occasions, so you can coordinate with glosses, liners, or wear solo for maximal impact.

Who is it for?

Designed for makeup lovers who want serious color without constant reapplication, busy professionals needing a reliable all-day lip, and artists seeking a bold, editorial-grade finish. If you crave a transfer-proof lip that can pair with a wide range of looks—classic red, modern noir, or a daring evening style—Cruella is built for you.

How to use

• Swipe along the lip line with the slim pencil for a defined edge, then fill in for a full-coverage, long-wearing color.
• For extra staying power, map the cupid’s bow and corners first, then blend inward for a smooth, even finish.
• Pair with a clear or matching gloss for a high-shine moment, or wear matte as-is for a bold, contemporary vibe.

Practical insights

• Ideal for long days and social events where you don’t want to re-apply after every meal.
