I don't remember being as enamored with a NARS lip product as I am with their Como Larger Than Life Lip Gloss. The color, a medium berry with the finest gold micro-shimmer, is natural and flattering; a "my lips only much, much better". The formula of NARS lip glosses has improved greatly and Larger Than Life has am excellent not sticky texture that feels comfortable and hydrating (thus a bit volumizing). It even stays in place and leaves a little color behind better than an average gloss.
The pointed tiny brush applicator can be a bit annoying. It's good for a precise application and helps avoiding over gooping the lips, but it takes a little more work to fully coat the lips. Still, when applying in a hurry and on the go, I truly appreciate the brush of NARS Larger Than Life gloss as a mistake-proof applicator.
Bottom Line: I'll finish the tube before I know it.
NARS Como Larger Than Life Lip Gloss ($26) is available at NARS counters, Sephora, and narscosmetics.com.
Love this colour, these sort of glosses are so nice! Not so keen on the brush applicator though.
ReplyDeleteLate in the game. But, I picked this up today thanks to your review! Loved the spelling out of the name...tres chic.
ReplyDeletelooks VERY much like clinique's "lilac" balm gloss in the tube, which is not lilac at all, but a berry with fine gold shimmer. I think I like the idea of Nars precision brush better than a squeeze tube though. M.
