I like that the lips on these LE tubes of gloss from the new guy Ray for NARS holiday 2017 collection look like routine ol’ lips. They’re even somewhat asymmetrical, say thanks to goodness! since I gotta be honest, in some cases I requirement a break from the hyper-inflated Kylie-style lips everywhere.
The glosses are NARS Photogloss Lip Lacquers, a new restricted edition formula, as well as — extremely significantly — they odor practically like vanilla cookies.

The thing about these glosses is that they’re SO pigmented. Like, you understand exactly how in some cases when you make tea as well as you put the tea bag in the hot water, however then you go do something else as well as fail to remember about the tea, only to recognize an hour later what you did, however you don’t want to squander it, so you drink it anyway even though it tastes crazy strong as well as intense?
That’s exactly how these glosses look.

I just swipe the wand along my lower lip when — actually one time from delegated best — then press my lips together a few times, as well as just type of feather out the edges. That’s the simplest method I’ve discovered it to apply them.
Anything much more than a swipe, though, as well as things begin to get complicated. Some areas on my lips will end up darker than others, as well as then I’ll have to take gloss all the method out to the edges as well as thoroughly comply with the curves of my lips… save yourself the trouble. just dab a bit on your lips, as well as blur out the edges.

It’s that method with all of the shades, however particularly the sparkly fuchsia — which is so extremely ’80s, I like it! — as well as the dark creamy burgundy.
These aren’t very sticky, as well as I only get about two hours of wear time, however that’s quite common of a thin, non-sticky gloss. At least the pigmented formula implies that you can stretch a tube out a long time.
I like these a great deal as well as can wholeheartedly suggest them, as long as you don’t have major flakes going on, since they’re sure to amplify any type of textured areas.
