I was thinking of getting orgasm today but i don’t know if it would work would my darker skin do u reccomend that or any other color…..please help

Jules Avatar

Yeah, some of the colors look so striking in the tube, but then they turn out to be barely there when applied! Disappointing. Pass!

joyce Avatar

Eagerly anticipating your review! I’ve always loved the Wonder color but not the texture, so I hope the relaunch gets a good grade.

joyce Avatar

Eagerly anticipating your review! The Wonder shade is so pretty but I didn’t care for the texture, so I hope the relaunch formula gets a good grade.

Occasionally…only very occasionally…I feel bad for you. 30 glosses! Has Buxom sent you their 100 shades…? That just sounds like a lot of work…. Good luck!

You know, I picked one up the other day and I think they are great! They remind me a little of the Bite lip glosses without having the plastic smell I associate with that brand. Also, it’s in a pretty big tube, so it seems like you get a lot of product. I wouldn’t normally spend more than 10 dollars on lip gloss, but the Buxom lip glosses aren’t a bad buy. Be forewarned that all the colors have some amount of sparkles in them.

beka Avatar

i love how you laid out all of the glosses for the pictures. did you wish there were two more so you could finish the last NARS? i would have taken me hours to do something like that! my OCD would have gotten totally out of control!

Laura Avatar

Belize and Stolen Kisses are so pretty! Turkish Delight makes me wonder why its so popular as it seems to settle into the lines.

Genevieve Avatar

Is it just me or do a lot of these look very similar to each other? I’ll probably end up with a couple- Angelika, Turkish Delight, and Dolce Vita look really pretty and different enough from each other that I could rationalize getting yet another lipgloss! I will wait for your review, though, Christine:) Have you reviewed any Bite lip glosses? I just bought the Rose Gold lipgloss set from Sephora and was wondering if you were familiar with that formula. I love everything I’ve tried from them, so I took the plunge- buy, if deny one has son opinion on Bite lipgloss I’d love to hear it!:)

Veronica Lodge Avatar

Great maybe the new formula will smell better after two weeks of usage. My last Nars lip gloss smelt like cheap jordana lipgloss.

Madeline Avatar

Christine, I love your blog! I’m just getting into the world of “big girl” makeup and whenever I see something I like online or in store, I always check your blog first to see if you’ve reviewed it! You’re the best!!

Scandal was my first NARS product long time ago….and I really loved it. Mine was much more opague and redder than the one in your picture Christine.

Kgll Avatar

Smart marketing, on their part. They always know about that one girl who will feel awful because she can only afford an “N” on the front, so she will buy three to see the full name lined up.

Quinctia Avatar

They do look adorable all lined up, but unless you store them like that, it should be good enough that the NARS wraps around the cap, right? 😉

kjh Avatar

Colors were much more pigmented in the older Sweet Dreams + Giza. Never had many; not a big fan. Think they look ever-so-similar, much as the new UDs do.

StrangeOne Avatar

Some of these look like good my lips but better colours like ophelia or stolen kisses.

I’ve been having such bad luck with finding a natural lip colour. My super pigmented lips turning every pink plummy and my yesterday’s haul included a lip gloss which was a delicate pink at the store and neon pink at home (how!!) This ongoing hunt made me figure out why my mother chose only one colour every time she bought lipstick.

jdm Avatar

Most of these are terribly disappointing. I remember the old lip glosses from NARS and the colors had a lot more depth and opacity to them (the smell never bothered me either!)

Such a shame, I feel like the quality of a lot of their heritage products is going down the tubes.

Emma M Avatar

I am EAGERLY anticipating your review on Dolce Vita Christine!! Will you be comparing it to the old formula too? I remember you reviewed Dolce Vita as part of the Nars hearts NY pallete.

Dolce Vita is my ALL TIME FAVORITE lippie. I actually get panic attacks when I can’t figure out where I last put it. No lie. My BF witnessed me throw apart my room looking for it once. No other lip product puts me in a happy mood EVERY time I put it on. Its like a drug to me LOL. I freaked out when I read they were reformulating this so I ordered 5 from Nars online. I hope they send me the old one. Crossing my fingers. I really can’t see how my beloved Dolce Vita can be any better.

Quinctia Avatar

Hmm…personally, at that level of pigmentation, I require serious sparkle/shimmer from a shimmery gloss. So this is probably not a line for me. But I’m not a huge gloss lover, anyway. I do like the looks of Risky Business and Misbehave…and their names! 🙂

Ning Avatar

I’m really hoping that they took away the smell of the lipgloss and changed the applicator… Those 2 factors kept me away from purchasing these even though the consistency was not sticky and the color payoff was good!

Bella Avatar

There are a number of Nars glosses I cannot live without, and now I no longer have to brave the skanky odour. Yay!! I shall be looking out for your reviews, thank you!

Adhishree Avatar

Ooooh how I envy your job! You do it so well though 🙂 I bet it takes FOREVER. Thank you for being so precise 🙂

Jenny Avatar

I used to have Chihuahua. I don’t have it anymore but the new one looks different. I wanted to repurchase it in the new formula.

Celine Avatar

Can’t wait to see the swatches on these, Nars is one of my favorite brands for lip gloss. I’m not normally attracted to browns, but looks like some nice ones are in there. Also, the oranges too.

Ashley Avatar

If this is what the reformulated glosses look, I can’t imagine what the original formula was like… I’d definitely skip these for the Bite Beauty glosses instead!

Monica! Avatar

I don’t know why, but they don’t seem that glossy to me, perhaps because I prefer a thicker consistency in my glosses, but Dolce vita and Belize look lovely! anyway, have a lovely sunday Christine! 😀
