What it is
A hybrid lipstick that cares for your lips while giving them sophisticated color and shine. Each time you apply it, it gives a three-dimensional shine, cares for your lips, and maintains its beautiful color. In addition to NARS' representative colors such as Orgasm, the lineup includes luscious new colors such as nude, pink, red, and berry. The light texture gives a glossy color without stickiness, creating plump lips. The moisturizing ingredients of mango and shea butter keep your lips moisturized and maintain the three-dimensional shine and color for a long time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this authentic?
Yes. Every item is bought from an official seller in Japan, or direct from the brand for pre-orders,
never from resellers or grey market stock. Counterfeits and grey market listings are a real problem in
Asian beauty online, and buying only through official channels is how we rule it out.
What are your shipping rates?
On orders under US$75, shipping is a flat US$20 to the United States and US$10 to all other countries.
Orders of US$75 or more ship free, applied automatically at checkout. Your exact shipping cost is shown before you pay.
How long does delivery take?
These estimates are for International Airmail (Tracked) and include 3 to 5 business days of processing in Japan.
- United States: 12 to 15 business days
- Canada, United Kingdom, France, Germany: 9 to 12 business days
- Australia, New Zealand, Denmark, Finland, India, Indonesia, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland: 10 to 13 business days

Actual delivery can be affected by customs clearance, seasonal congestion, or carrier delays in the destination country, all of which are outside our control.
Do you offer express shipping?
Yes. As of 22 July 2026, we offer International Express Mail through Japan Post. The cost is based on order weight and is calculated automatically at checkout.
Will I pay customs or import fees?
US orders: No. As of July 1, 2026, all US orders ship DDP (duties delivered prepaid), meaning we prepay all import duties on our end. Nothing is due at your door.
Orders outside the US: Possibly. Duties and import taxes are set by your local customs authority and are not collected at checkout, so any charges on delivery are your responsibility.
We're working on rolling out prepaid duties for more countries soon.
This is my first time buying a NARS lipstick! The color is beautiful, easy to apply, and the packaging is gorgeous, so I'm happy with it! I highly recommend it! It turned out a little beige when I applied it, but I'm happy with it!

There are a ton of lipsticks being released this January. I was looking for the blush, but I ended up swatching the new colors...so cute... #215 FAST LOVE is a shimmering soft strawberry, which is in the pink category of the pink, berry, coral, red, and brown range. It's like my favorite #888, but with a more coral-like shimmer and glitter. It contains a few tiny glitters, but it looks more like a pearly sheen than a shimmery one. I'm so glad I bought it. 2026. I'll be buying about 40-50 lipsticks in a year. This one is one of my go-to lipsticks that I personally trust won't irritate my skin. (Other lipsticks that never irritate my skin include the GUERLAIN Kiss Kiss Be Glow series, YSL Love Shine series, GIVENCHY Rose Perfect, and FAS The Black Day Repair Lip Serum.) I bought a second one when I bought holiday items. #888 also makes a great gift. 2025.10 It's as smooth and easy to apply as a balm! (Contains mango butter and shea butter) I was torn between #777 and #888 at the store, but I'm glad I went with #888, the best cosmetics color for the second half of 2023. It turned out to be a brighter pink than the official model in the photo. It's a color that seems to suit everyone. Adding gloss changes the look and makes it look more lustrous. Purchased December 2023
I have cool-toned summer skin tones, and shades of blue that are too strong or too weak don't suit me, but this was great. The color isn't too flashy, so I can wear it to the office, and I love mauve pink, so I'm glad I bought it! However, the color doesn't apply as well when your lips are chapped, like in the winter, so I recommend taking good care of your lips before using it.
It applies smoothly! There are a wide variety of colors, so it's easy to find a color that suits you. It's moisturizing, but it doesn't last that long.
