Users highly recommend Dragon Girl for its exceptional whitening effect and vibrant fuchsia-red 'girl group' color, though many find the matte texture very drying. Significant drawbacks include the inconvenience of needing a separate sharpener and the shade's tendency to look overly fluorescent or aging on certain skin tones.

爱惨了你这显白玫红色！

I love this whitening fuchsia so much!

👎

这质地太拔干了[哭惹R]

This texture is too drying.

💬

对比ruby woo 龙女的冷蓝调会更重一些

Compared to Ruby Woo, Dragon Girl has a heavier cool blue undertone.

😊

人生中最最爱的玫红色没有之一！超级无敌显白提气色了！

My all-time favorite fuchsia! It's incredibly whitening and improves the complexion!

早点看到，我就不会买了[哭惹R]，上嘴老十岁

If only I'd seen this earlier, I wouldn't have bought it... it makes me look ten years older.

Users widely praise the NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Dragon Girl as an iconic, flattering blue-based red that brightens the complexion, though some note concerns regarding its longevity and the difficulty of sharpening the pencil.

😊

If you're looking for the most perfect blue tone vampy but not super dark still bright red, it is Dragon Girl from the Nars Power Matte Collection.

👎

I have a love and hate relationship with this lipstick. It does apply nicely on the lips but it feels a little weird. By weird, I mean it's a little powdery and silicone-y. And unfortunately, it is not that long-wearing.

😊

I feel like this one makes my teeth look super white. I always love wearing this in the summer.

👎

New one is not as cool toned as the old one Nars ruined dragon girl and og orgas* blush
