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.

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.
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.
