Nars Turkish Delight lipgloss

A cult product from Nars, Turkish Delight is probably most famous for being what Kim Kardashian pairs with Mac's Angel lipstick to acheive that perfect pout. To me, Nars packaging screams luxury, and with a price tag of £17.50 I would expect nothing less! It's really difficult to describe just how the packaging feels but if I could pick 2 words they would be smooth and velvety!

The gloss itself is highly pigmented, semi-sheer and I find it to be non-sticky. The colour is a beautiful milky pink, perhaps even too light and milky for me to wear it by itself, but LOVELY over lipsticks that compliment it. It's thick, creamy and sits incredibly well on my lips. The one thing I do dislike about it is the taste, it's rank! Many years ago I had a Bobbi Brown lipgloss, and I remember that tasted similar! I find that if you also put some of the gloss on the back of your hand and smell it, there is definetely a similar smell to the not so nice taste.

Smell/taste aside, I would definetely not cast this lipgloss away, and I wouldn't be surprised if I bought this again when I finish this tube. I dare say that in some ways I like Nars more than Mac! I feel instantly pampered just by looking at how beautiful the products and packaging are.

  1. I definitely like NARS more than MAC! I know that's scandalous but NARS screams luxury and I have never ever been disappointed with any of their products. I haven't tried Turkish Delight yet and I do think I'd be too pale for it but it's so pretty that I know I won't be able to resist much longer. All NARS lip glosses have that yucky taste, the lip lacquers more so!

    1. I can't describe the taste! It's just really off and plasticy (if that makes any sence at all haha) I do love Nars! It makes Mac look like just any old brand x

  2. This looks like such a pretty shade.. might treat myself to it come payday! Shame about the smell though, hate smelly make-up items! X

    1. Me too! It gets away with the smell I think because you really have to pretty much shove it in your face to smell it but the taste isn't very nice either! x

  3. Love the look of this shade! So pretty :) I haven't tried any of NARS's lip products but I LOVE their shadows and blushers - I usually shy away from lip glosses because of the stickiness and risk of your hair getting stuck to your lips when windy! I am pretty tempted to try some NARS glosses and lipsticks though! xx
