What it is
A lip balm that lightly tints lips with a sheer shade of "unpretentious sweetness." The colorful, sweet candy colors add a touch of pure sensuality. Moisturizing ingredients keep lips hydrated for hours, leaving them plump and smooth. The buttery smooth texture spreads easily without stickiness, giving translucent color and a subtle shine. A lovely finish that will make your heart flutter every time you apply it to your lips. 888 DOLCE VITA: Dusty Rose
Ingredients
How to use
When applied to bare lips, you can enjoy a subtle color. When applied to the entire lip before applying other lip products, it creates a smooth, moisturizing base. When applied over lip color, it adds a subtle shine.

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.
Since it's a lip balm, the color doesn't last, but it's easy to apply without looking like lip cream! The natural color payoff makes it suitable for any makeup look.
[NARS Afterglow Lip Balm N 777 ORGASM 3g] ◆ This lip balm is smooth, moisturizing, and sheer, yet offers great color payoff. 777 ORGASM features a beautiful pink color with fine gold glitter. It also looks stylish when paired with ORGASM blush. ◆ When applying the lip balm (777 ORGASM), the glitter isn't noticeable on the lips. The glitter is quite fine, so when light hits it, it has a hint of gold shimmer. The base color appears to be a bluish pink to the naked eye. (The photo shown is unprocessed and may appear a slightly darker pink.) I think it's a color that can be used by both warm and cool skin tones. The color payoff is good, but because it's sheer, it doesn't completely set the lip color, but rather subtly changes the color of your lips. This is truly a color-imparting lip balm. ◆ It applies smoothly and comfortably. I didn't really notice any scent! I've only used it a few times, but I haven't noticed any dryness or irritation. The color fades after eating, just like regular lip balms. The packaging of the lip balm is also cute! It's not made of plastic, so it has a weighty feel and a luxurious feel. It would make a great gift.
It's easy to apply, has a sheer color, and has a great shine, making it a lipstick that you'll find yourself reaching for without even realizing it! I think it goes well with any makeup look!
