NARS Larger Than Life Lipgloss in Como

Hiyo!

This is just a quick post, I have quite a few things to review but haven't had the time as of late. I promised myself i would not let more than two weeks pass without posting and im in my third week now  >.< *slaps self on hand*

Well think of this as a filler post for the meantime until this weekend when i can do a meatier post as i have lots of goodies to talk about.

Lets get to it then:

We have to talk about this brush -___-

The brush is made of small stiff plastic feeling bristles and is not soft against the lips. I am quite disappointed in it because i have quite a few NARS glosses and they all have that soft velvety feeling applicator. I do not know why they chose to use these stiff bristles in this product but I don't like it at all.

It is a very soft and subtle pink color, great for summer. And although you can see gold flecks in the swatches they are not that visible in real life. Added bonus, you do not feel them at all. I hate glosses that have the little flecks you can feel (and see) on your skin especially as the gloss fades but this gloss has neither negative aspect.

Pretty much the only negative thing i can say about this gloss is the applicator is stiff and not very pleasant. Other than that I love it.
