December has finally come around and that can mean only one thing: you can now open your much-anticipated GLOSSYBOX ‘Advent Calendar’! Your Christmas countdown begins with a fabulous Lip Glide by NARS, a state-of-the-art makeup brand that has been breaking beauty rules for over two decades.
NARS Velvet Lip Glide
Tucked behind door number one is the NARS Velvet Lip Glide in one of two gorgeous limited edition shades – Immoral and Burning Love. The luscious semi-matte formula glides like a gloss and cloaks like a lipstick. Best of all, it isn’t sticky, so you’ll never end up with that 2000s wind-swept-hair-stuck-to-your-lips look again.
IMMORAL
I love the versatility of the pink-toned one. Blot it on lightly with your fingertips for a lip-stained everyday look, or apply freely to glam-up for the festive party season.
BURNING LOVE
Burning Love has captured our hearts too, though! A bright and bold red, it is perfect for a dramatic year-round evening look.
Top Tip For Long-lasting Coverage For long-lasting coverage and best colour payoff, I’d recommend gently exfoliating your lips before applying the Velvet Lip Glide. No need to moisturise your lips though – the oil-infused formula will leave them feeling nourished and hydrated.
NARS: A No Rules Philosophy Of Beauty
Founded by François Nars, NARS first launched in 1994 with a range of 12 iconic lipsticks. Since then, the brand has developed a must-have collection of make-up, skincare and professional artistry tools. NARS also inspires self-expression and imagination, perfect for you Glossies who love to try out new looks and get creative.
In fact, they’ve just launched an incredible new mascara. A breakthrough innovation, the Climax Mascara boasts a lightweight whipped formula that lifts and volumises lashes without clumping or smudging. What are you waiting for? Try it now!
All I Want… Is A NARS Velvet Lip Glide
If you’ve been as blown away by this product as I have (I only needed to top up after lunch and one too many cups of tea!), why not try their other lip colours? NARS offers a wide a selection of nude, rose, berry and red shades. These are just a few of my favourites:
Toy (Deep Aubergine):Toy is a darker take on the classic plum lipstick that blends deep purple and warm brown - I just can’t get enough!
Playpen (Lychee Pink): You can never go wrong with a nude lipstick. This soft pink shade works for both a casual day look and an evening glossy finish.
La Main Bleue (Rich Berry): I’m obsessed with this rich berry shade. La Main Bleue and its warm tone is the ideal lip colour to complement any winter outfit.
