NARS Lipgloss Friday: Strawberry Fields

I have accumulated quite a few NARS lipglosses of late (in part due to being the lucky recipient of the Crazy Hear lip gloss set from my lovely sister for Christmas). So I thought I'd feature one every week for the next few weeks and then do a side by side comparison. I took all the shots in one go (poor scrubbed lips!) so that lighting would be the same and so you can see the difference between them all. Quite a few are berry-toned (ahem) so I think it's nice to see the comparisons!

First off, I present a new addition to the family, and a limited edition from summer that's still available on the NARS website and some other places. It's a gorgeous, juicy, warm bright pink (warmer than the picture below). It's so pigmented! (this is the gloss that meant I had to get a foundation, but it's worth it! It's got that great NARS non-sticky texture, but none of the plasticky scent of older formulations (some are a bit stickier than others too, I've found, but this is very good). I'm not used to uber-bright lipstick on me, and think gloss is a nice easy way to wear brights if you're a bit hesitant about them like me. I love this shade, it makes me happy!
