I Have a Small Beef with NARS Larger Than Life Lip Gloss - Makeup and Beauty Blog

I wonder if NARS was trying to be ironic by making these new Larger Than Life Lip Gloss tubes ($26 each) smaller than their regular glosses. The new tubes, while they do appear larger, really hold much less product (0.19 oz. versus 0.28 oz.).

And that'due south non all. These new plumping glosses, available now exclusively at Sephora stores and also online, even take a smaller brush. Information technology's nigh half the size of the line's regular doe-foot applicator. The smaller size is supposed to make information technology more precise for application.

I've been wearing shimmery blue pinkish Coeur Sucré for a couple of days; information technology's one of nine colors in the line.

A proper noun similar "Larger Than Life" creates certain expectations. I think in this case, it was meant to utilise to the product's lip plumping action. Mayhap? — that it's supposed to make lips larger than life? Unfortunately, I'g not really getting a whole lot of that. My lips don't feel or announced much larger with information technology on.

As for how shiny they are? — THAT I detect. The shine is what I love most almost this gloss. That, and the fact that NARS left out their telltale lip gloss scent (which to me smells a fiddling like plastic).

Coeur Sucré feels considerably thicker and stickier than I expected (like a MAC Lipglass), which I similar, and it lasts from 4-5 hours.

But the smaller amount of production information technology comes with and the miniaturized brush, which I find a fiddling hard to wield (neat for getting into modest corners and for defining my cupid's bow, merely using information technology requires about twice every bit much time as a regular doe-pes applicator), do make me question its value.

Coeur Sucré shines like a star, and I like it for that, but I'grand a little allow downwardly by the packaging design. Hardcore NARS enthusiasts may however want to take a closer look.

Toll: $26 for a 0.19-oz. tube
AVAILABILITY: Available at present exclusively at Sephora stores and also online
MAKEUP AND Blog RATING: B-

Late get-go!

I got a late start this morn because I had a late night last nighttime, thanks to Truthful Claret and the joys of WiFi in bed. 🙂 I'm all defenseless upward on the show now, and I'd sure beloved to dish (hit me up in the comments!).

Your friendly neighborhood dazzler addict,
