NARS Best of Lips Palette

The other night I somehow pulled off a great first date look...on the of the muggiest days of the year so far. To top it all off, this look took me about ten minutes and came out better than some of the days that I have spent more than twice that amount of time on my look. And my look didn't even come out half as good. One major item that was part of this look was a NARS Lip Gloss. So looking back on it, I want to look at more lip products from NARS so I can pull most easy looks off this summer.

I am starting my search with the NARS palette called Best of Lips. This palette contains their best-selling and highest rated lip products. So I now have six of their top sellers to try out and work with. NARS Lipsticks, Lacquers, and Glosses are top quality so I can't go wrong with any product from this new palette.

Lipstick - A wide range of captivating shades designed to provide the look and style the color dictates . NARS Lipstick is available in three formulas. The Satin finish is a longwearing lipstick with micro-bubbles spheres to continually release lip conditioners which yield creamy, silky color that wears for hours. The Semi-Matte finish is a highly pigmented matte, non drying formula that provides a longwearing, full-bodied, velvety finish. The Sheer finish contains long lasting color pigments that have been suspended in this translucent formula to provide a sheer, natural tint.

Lip Gloss - Serious shine and sexy color in sheer, creamy, and semi-sheer formulas. Extremely wearable and versatile shades, lip gloss may be worn alone or over other lip products for heightened drama. Ultra-shiny and highly pigmented. Convenient wand application. Iconic shades. Ideal alone or over other lip color.

Lip Lacquer - High shine formula with sheer pigments of color for luscious lips day or night. This super-shiny formula can be worn alone or over other lip products. Unique texture prevents color from bleeding. Transparent pigments with sexy shine. Use alone or over other lip color.

The Multiple - The original multi-purpose sticks for eyes, cheeks, lips, and body. Its unique, creamy formula blends effortlessly to provide sheer color for creating shimmering accents, contours, or dynamic highlights. Creates perfect, glowing complexions and is conveniently designed for failproof application.

Here are the shades...

- Copacabana - glistening pearl (The Multiple)
- Chelsea Girls - innocent nude beige with creme finish (Lip Lacquer)
- Dolce Vita - sheer dusty rose (Lip Gloss)
- Orgasm - sheer warm pink with golden shimmer (Lip Gloss)
- Eros - raspberry rose with shimmer (Lip Lacquer)
- Red Lizard - full powered red (Lipstick - Semi-matte)

I can't wait to order this palette from the NARS website! I am already plotting out my beauty options for the next few seasons worth of makeup looks.
