Rich, creamy color that glides on smoothly with a completely budge-proof finish. Incomparable 12-hour wear with no smearing and no caking. Deeply dramatic shades named for the most iconic streets in the world.
- Long-wearing
- Achieves rich, intense color
- Twist up delivery and built-in sharpener
The pigment applies like a dream. It's creamy and soft. No tugging required. Be careful, though, not to turn the color core up too high above the rim of the pencil. It might break. Even if it does, though, there are excellent sharpening tips on the NARS site.
Sharpening Tips
- To achieve a soft point, twist up the pencil color to slightly above the height of the sharpener blade.
- Hold the sharpener still in one hand and gently insert the pencil and turn the pencil clockwise, shaving the edges to a soft point.
- Repel pencil color so only the sharpened area is exposed.

Love that color! It looks totally wearable unlike some greens. I need to check out the other colors, too. Nars does it again!
Hi Charlestongirl!
What a lovely, lovely color!I adore this green particularly!
Yes Brittany is a fantastic place, I love it very much!
Hi Eileen,
I am glad you enjoyed Brittany, it's one of my favorite places in France and we could (almost)have met:-) isn't funny?...but you were there before me
Hi Grlnxdor!
That color is wearable - as you see, unlike some greens that scream.
Hi Clarisse!
Can you buy NARS there? You'd look great in Rue de Rivoli!
Greetings Charlestongirl!
Thanks for showing me this new shade; looks like this is right up my alley. I already have 3 (Abbey Road, St. Marks Place, and Madison Ave). Great colors but the sharpener is not my friend. It does take a bit of practice.
I really like this shade--it is very different from all the olive and khaki liners I've seen. I'm just worried about the staying power on my small, oily lids
I have a few of these colors, including this green and they are truly beautiful. This color would look absolutely gorgeous on you. I can possibly see it as a little highlighter accent to the chantecaille fall elephant palette, along with the bronze gel liner, the limited edition liner that goes with the fall edition. This color is perfect for your skin color and eye color. I also have the brown, black, campo (yellowish) and the St Marks, one of the purples. But as usual, I did the idiotic thing by attempting to sharpen the pencil damaging the pencil. When I brought it back to sephora, they were so nice and exchanged them for me for another, explaining the pencils do not need to be sharpened, just rolled up from the bottom. I'm such an idiot. Leave it to me to make something so easy, hard. These purchases were another splurge based on your blog reviews. You're killing me.

Hi Charlestongirl! Yes, I can buy NARS in Paris, thank you! or on their website: I prefer Le Bon Marché since I can see and try the products there(and have some advice too) I'm in love with this gorgeous pencil and will make it mine when I go to Paris in September:-)another splurge!....
I love my Larger Than Life eyeliner in Madison Ave (and not just because it has me humming Backstreet Boys). The perfect grey and the best texture, not too soft or too hard.
Rue de Rivoli, Campo del Fiori and Via Appia are on my to-buy list.
Larger than life is definitely the best eyeliner I have ever tried. I have very oily lids and these eyeliners hold like magic! Currently my favorite colors are Via appia and st marks place. I also have Via Veneto and Abbey road. Abbey road is a rather bold turquoise but it's amazing on eyes.
