New NARS du Jour 8.4.10

While I was in sephora looking for the Urban Decay Naked palette I saw that NARS has put out some new lip gloss colors that are exclusive to Sephora. The colors are Angelika, Super Orgasm, Albatross, Luster and Oasis.

At first I went right towards Angelika, the left pinkest color and used a tester wand to try it on. Eh, not so much, I was hoping for a vibrant pink, but it was pretty sheer and stunk like plastic so I passed. Nothing else really screamed out to me so I passed along.

Although, now I am having second doubts and Luster seems to be calling out its orange shimmery goodness to me. I don't know if I will give it. NARS lip glosses are not my favorite, I love the formulas but they smell rancid and for $24 I want a good smelling gloss! Maybe, I will mosey on over to MAC to find a dupe.

I usually find that if I am not initially drawn to it and pass on it, there is a reason and I shouldn't
go back for it!

However, doesn't the display look pretty?

You can check them out online here: http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P2862&categoryId=C10476

What are your thoughts?
Will you be trying?

  1. I actually bought Angelika and I got the lip gloss trio from Temptalia. Except it's not the trio the order (I'm not receiving it until Friday) says that it's a mini duo: Dolce Vita and Striptease.

    Did you find the Naked palette? I ended up buying it from Ulta online because Sephora sells out like crazy!

  3. That would have to be a no for me. NARS lip glosses don't ever call my name. Their lipsticks however are a whole different story!

  4. I think I'm gonna pass on them. Yes, its cool because they go with the blushes and we all love the blushes, but meh. I don't despise the nars glosses but there are better ones for me. I would rather pay $6 more and get a YSL, those glosses smell amazing! or a chanel glossamer...those look gorgeous over lipstick.

  5. Looks like I'll be visiting Sephora real soon. Ugh I am going to TRY to hold out for the NAKED palette since that's what I'm really dying for!

  6. I think they are pretty but the one that seems worth it to me is actually Luxor. It's a Nordstroms exclusive and is like the Luxor multiple, a sheer opal shine. I like it because it's very unique and has a pink duo chrome to it.

  9. Interesting.... i actually really like the smell of NARS lipglosses. They remind me of barbie dolls. if i'm getting any from this collection, i think it will be albatross, if it's not too frosty

  11. I think I saw them at my Sephora store too and I do indeed need to check them out again. Even though the blushes are the ones that I like and no other NARS proudct attracts me. Even I wanted to try their lipglasses but what you said about the rancid smell, I'll have to pass as well. I love the smell of MAC's lipglasses.
