I am quite happy with this NARS Velvet Lip Glide since passed the test from a lot of kisses and even a dessert. It's very durable, and it has a glossy finished indeed, also creamy and soft on my skin. It doesn't have a bad taste, and it has a pleasant and sweet smell. The box is a black package exquisite and sophisticated, and the lip comes in a beautiful translucent container. I certainly recommend it.
