30 Days of NARS: Dolce Vita Lip Gloss, Day 13

April 24th, 2014 by Karen 15 Comments

This sheer dusty rose is livin’ the sweet life.

No, I mean, that’s what it’s called… La Dolce Vita. Italian for “the sweet life.”

It’s an oldie but a goodie, and it’s one of the 30 recently reformulated NARS Lip Glosses ($26 each) available now.

I keep wanting to sing it like Ricky Martin: “Living la dolce vita!”

Yeah, I know I’m weird. 🙂

30 Days of NARS: Misbehave Lip Gloss, Day 12

April 21st, 2014 by Karen 10 Comments

It’s just so easy to Misbehave…

You know, Misbehave? — one of the 30 recently reformulated Lip Glosses from NARS?

Don’t be surprised if you start feeling a little naughty with this sheer cherry red with golden shimmer on your lips. I mean, that name — it’s just an invitation to start trouble.

Um…not that I’d know anything about that.

Nope. 🙂

You can find Misbehave misbehaving now with its 29 siblings in the NARS Lip Gloss line.

30 Days of NARS: Super Orgasm Lip Gloss, Day 11

April 20th, 2014 by Karen 8 Comments

Nicely done, NARS. Bravo.

I really like this new incarnation of Super Orgasm Lip Gloss. It seems much more pigmented to me than the O.G. version, so yay/yea to that!

This one’s number 11 of the 30 shades in the recently revamped NARS Lip Gloss line (available now).

30 Days of NARS: Striptease Lip Gloss, Day 10

April 19th, 2014 by Karen 7 Comments

Striptease, baby!

I use NARS Striptease ($26), a classic milky, peachy nude gloss, more as a layering lipgloss, because on bare lips, like I’m wearing in these pics, it likes to shimmy down into my lip lines…

Still pretty, though, and I love that subtle glitter. 🙂

It’s available now with the rest of the recently revamped and reformulated NARS Lip Gloss line.

30 Days of NARS: Stella Lip Gloss, Day 9

April 18th, 2014 by Karen 17 Comments

You gotta do a yell like from A Streetcar Named Desire when you wear this shimmery raspberry gloss…

STELLA!

“Ever asked yourself why a woman like Stella stays with a man like Stanley? This’ll tell you why!!”

I like this one a lot. 🙂 It’s one of the more pigmented shades in the recently reformulated NARS Lip Gloss line, and it’s available now, along with the rest of the NARS Lip Gloss crew.

30 Days of NARS: Belize Lip Gloss, Day 7

April 16th, 2014 by Karen 15 Comments

NARS Belize Lip Swatch — A big kiss from Belize…

Meet Belize, another member of the NARS secret shimmer society.

(Hi, Belize!)

Like Angelika Lip Gloss, it looks like a glitter-fest in the tube, but when you actually get it on your lips, the shimmer’s very subtle.

Belize ($26), a pinkish mauve with flecks o’ gold, is one of 30 glosses in the newly relaunched NARS Lip Gloss line available now.

30 Days of NARS: Angelika Lip Gloss, Day 6

April 15th, 2014 by Karen 14 Comments

Sheer, cool-toned pink Angelika Lip Gloss is one of the 23 shades NARS carried over from their previous Lip Gloss line into the brand new formulation arriving on counters this week.

I wore the previous version from time to time and always liked the color, but it was never a staple of mine. Maybe if I hadn’t been so obsessed with Sweet Revenge (which is even better now in the new non-plasticky smelling formulation), I would have worn it more.

A little on the cooler side, it’s a perfectly acceptable pink, but not altogether unique.

Pretty, though… You can’t really go wrong with a basic sheer pink.

It kind of look like it would be glittery based on the tube, but it’s less so on the lips. Just a tad, but it’s not a super glitter-fest.

Angelika ($26) and its 29 siblings in the newly reformulated NARS Lip Gloss line are available now at NARS Boutiques and narscosmetics.com, and coming to NARS counters and Sephora stores May 1.
