NARS has reformulated their lip gloss with nourishing and hydrating ingredients to keep lips soft and supple while Sea Lavender helps fight the signs of aging. There are a total of 30 shades which includes 7 new shades as well as 23 iconic favourites. The gloss has a traditional doe-foot applicator which makes me a happy girl because I am not a fan of brush wands for lip gloss.
The NARS Lip Gloss ($29 CAD$26 US) is what I would call a more traditional gloss. Sheer colour with a shiny finish and shorter wear time. The formula is nice and lightweight and non-sticky. With all the new fangled hybrid and long wearing lip products hitting the market sometimes it’s nice to see a well formulated more “traditional” product with an impressive shade selection to meet any need.
I’ve tested 6 shades. All of them are new shades with the exception of Easy Lover. Texture wise the formula remains true between the shades. The most pigmented shades of the six I tried were Quito and Eternal Red. Being I love more pigmented glosses they naturally became my favourites.
