 Better by itself or with lipstick July 31, 2007
I started using Diablo on top of the red lizard lipstick but now I like Diablo by itself, I think it is nicer...
My Two Cents June 23, 2007
I am on my 2nd pot of Nars Lip Lacquer in Eros. I thought about buying a different color but I love Eros so much I decided not to. I have pretty fair skin, and Eros works really well with it, not too pinky, not too red, kind of a sheer berry. I imagine it would look good on other skin tones too though. I was surprised when I read the reviews on here about a funny smell. The truth is I never noticed any kind of unusual smell with the lip lacquer. Anyway, this is pretty much all I wear on my lips now, although maybe someday I'll force myself to try another color, ;)
 Overrated, I think, and it smells horrible March 7, 2007

I kept hearing about how great this lip lacquer was that I researched and researched (makeup alley, other sites) and finally sprang the 23 bucks for Chelsea Girls.
Despite the fact that some Latina girls said it was okay for medium olive skin, it is NOT. It is way too pale for what I would call medium Latin skin tone. Made me look bloodless.
The color might be fine for a much fairer olive tone, though.
I didn't find that the texture was pleasant, and the smell is positively offputting. I don't expect lip gloss to smell like a field of flowers or bubble gum, but I do expect something that goes ON MY MOUTH and will get IN MY MOUTH, inevitably, to have some sort of appealing smell/taste. This was just chemically and nasty. Your significant other will be quite put off by this smell, I would imagine. Or anyone else that you'd want close to your lips.
Also, if you have long hair that hangs anywhere near your face, it will stick like glue to this product. Wear your hair smoothed a bit away from your lower face, or expect goo on your strands.
Not impressed, but am willing to try other NARS products, just hope they all don't smell like this.
UPDATE: I caved and bought this again in "Diablo." The smell this time wasn't as offensive--more neutral, not bothersome. Did they change the formula? The color is rich and gorgeous--a red that got touched with wine, deep and pretty, and very flattering to medium-dark olive toned skin (ie, mine). I'd buy "Diablo" lacquer again, and I would consider another color. Still not my fave gloss (I prefer MAC's lipglasses), but I thought I should mention a positive experience with a different color.
 all good but the scent.. February 8, 2007
I like the Nars line of makeup and really like these lip lacquers. I have Chelsea Girls and its a great nude color and great for daytime or for wearing with smoky eyes. The only downfall is the scent like the other reviewer said. It has a wierd smell to it, once you get past that, its great!
Believe the Hype!!!!! August 23, 2006
This stuff is great!!! I read all kinds of reviews for NARS and everyone seemed so happy with what they bought so I figured I'd try it. I bought Eros and Capucine. I absolutely love Capucine!!! It looks so bright in the container but when you put it on it's the most gorgeous sheer coral. Eros is sheer rasberry sparkle, not too pink, very sexy. I have olive tone skin so they are perfect for my color. Love em'!!!!!
