NARS: Lipgloss- Orgasm (lipcolor)
Overall Rating: 3
Price: 2
Packaging Quality: 5
Would you buy this product again? No :|
I was SO excited when they came out with this lipgloss since I'm a big fan of the orgasm blush, but I am so disappointed with it. The color is gorgeous, just like the blush, BUT the texture of the gloss is awful. It's thick and gloppy. U have to force it out of the tube. Once u get it out it looks great, especially when paired with the orgsasm blush, but I hate fighting to get it out the tube, and I don't like the way it feels on my lips.  For $22, it's not worth the hassle, imho. I'll keep it but I don't see myself reaching for it a lot.. bummer..

On my not very pigmented lips, Orgasm is a peachy pink rose colour with golden shimmer. It isn't very shiny and the finish is more like a lipstick or lip stain. I normally don't like glosses with shimmer in them but this one is soo gorgeous, i love this colour, not the texture.

I totally agree with Juneplum on this one. I love the colour. It is a beautiful peachy pink colour and it is gorgeous on my lips. That said, it is thick, and sticky and I can't seem to get any out with the applicator wand. Once I do fight it out, the texture is sticky, and I lick it all off because it feels weird on my lips. Too bad, it's such a pretty colour, but I hardly ever use it. If it were available in pot form, I would repurchase it.

I don't usually care for NARS l/g but this one I just had to try. I love the color! It's a pink/peach with a very light gold shimmer. This one is thicker than other NARS l/g so it last longer. I have to say that Nars makes a pretty nice lipgloss. Not too sticky and semi long lasting. If you need a cheaper version NYC makes one called Sungold pink. It is a bit pinker but very close in color. You can only get the Orgasm l/g at Sephora.

Lovely shade in the tube and lovely shade on the lips but I have trouble getting the product out of the tube and it's just not shiny enough for me, it's very much like a liquid lipstick. Staying power is okay . Very expensive.

This is a pinky/golden colored gloss. Good staying power. I got compliments on it but I am just not that crazy about it to repurchase.

I too had so much anticipation of this, because I love the blush. It just doesn't feel right. It's an icky feeling on lips, and the color just didn't get it for me.

i think nars lipglosses are ridiculously priced all around. i bought this from a livejournal sell because i wasn't ready to lay down the money for a brand new store-bought one. i really like the colour, it's a very my lips but better shade on me. it is kind of thick though, and i thought maybe it was just a nars thing, but i got turkish delight at sephora and the consistency of turkish delight is so much better and smoother than orgasm.

i love the colour of this gloss, it's definately mlbb...but the texture, as some girls have said, isn't very pleasant. it's too thick, nothing at all like say turkish delight, which glides on smooth.

the colour is pretty, but imo isnt the same colour as the powder blush. this is more white/milkyish. I don't like the applicator, i find it kinda hard to distribute the colour evenly. i think i would have prefered a brush tip. It is a nice colour, but nothing special. I could def. find something very similar at mac for WAY cheaper.

I like the color, as I do the blush. I agree it is a thick gloss but I kinda like it. It is pricey but I typically don't run out of glosses too fast so I don't mind the occasional splurge. I would buy again.

Only if MAC stopped making Nymphette as it's an exact dupe, and when I'm done Nymphette I get to B2M it.  I have both and don't mind though, beautiful color. Rosy, peachy and shimmery. It is a little tricky to get enough out.
