Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Application
The NARS Afterglow Lip Shine is ready to use directly from the tube. No special setup is required.
Application Tips
- For a subtle sheen: Apply a single, thin layer directly to the center of your lips and gently press your lips together to distribute.
- For buildable color and maximum shine: Use the custom applicator to fully coat your upper and lower lips. For more intensity, wait a moment and apply a second layer.
- Over other lip products: This lip shine can be layered over lipstick or lip liner to add gloss and hydration. Ensure your base lip product is set to prevent smudging.
Compatibility
- Lip Liners: Pairs well with most lip liners to define your lip shape before application.
- Lipsticks: Can be applied over matte or satin lipsticks to transform their finish into a glossy one and add a boost of hydration.
- Other NARS Afterglow products: Designed to complement the NARS Afterglow collection.
Product Care
- Storage: Store the lip shine at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or extreme heat, to maintain its texture and efficacy.
- Cleaning: To keep the applicator clean, gently wipe any excess product from the wand before returning it to the tube. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals directly on the applicator.
- Shelf Life: Most lip glosses have a shelf life of 12-18 months after opening. Check for any changes in smell, color, or consistency as indicators of expiration.
