After all the raves, I was expecting a bit more from this gloss. The packaging makes it necessary to use a lip brush, and while Eros is a pretty, subtly shimmery berry color, it's nothing special. The texture is nice, but the flavorless, odorless quality is a little disappointing to me (although I may be in the minority on this point).

Why, Why, WHY did I buy this?! I already have pink lips, and this just made them scream "Peeeenk! I'm wearing Peeenk gloss!"

not the sophisticated, come-hither after I finish taking over the world look I was seeking. I'll be swapping this and mourning the loss of $20 that would have been better spent on lunch or at least the famed Orgasm blush.

Feh. I SO wanted this to work on me. Maybe my dark colouring (NC45/GGG/DDD/AAA) had something to do with it.

i was so excited to get this after all the raves and after trying it out one day at the store. I finnaly caved and got it. While The color is very pretty..it isn't anything too exciting. But, nevertheless, it is an okay color...great consistency...no awful smell. Overall i like it for an everyday no hasstle look

GREAT Gloss. I am such a nerd, I tried this on at Sephora but didn't buy it, then I got in my car, drove halfway home and kept looking in my rear-view mirror, and couldn't get over how awesome it looked!! It was so super-shiny-glossy and the eprfect deep rose-pinky. I turned my car around and went back into Sephora to buy it. $20 is a little pricey for this little jar-o-gloss, but I HAD to have it!

Does Nars EVER disappoint me? :) :) I really love this colour and i don't mind the tacky feeling of this gloss too much either :) Eros is a sheer, yet richly pigmented (make sense at all?) berry-reddish shade. Looks best only when face is "done up" (foundation, concealer etc) b/c i notice the berry tone really brings out my imperfections ;) Just for the record, i'm an MMM gal with warm undertones!

This is a beautiful bronzey raspberry colour with gorgeous shimmers. The formula is less sticky than the NARS pot glosses of the past which is good.
I don't like the packaging because the writing always wears off as does the coating on the plastic lid.

Such an incredible SEXY color. It's a raspberry with a subtle shimmer. The moisturizing and the feel of this gloss is absolutely fabulous. This is definitely a YLBB gloss.

This is a very sheer raspberry shimmer on the lips and this is very moisturizing. Compared to other lacquers i've tried, this doesn't have the weird smell like some of the others do. It looks to be one shade paler than my own pigmented lips so it looks quite subtle on me. Product is great but i think my expectations of this was just too high for it to meet(color wise).

My first NARS lip product. I swapped for this item, and am not sorry...a pretty raspberry shade with a decent amount of shimmer. I was afraid of the scent after reading so many reviews stating that the lip laquer's smelled...but albeit, mine does not smell offensive at all. The pot is a little cumbersome, but does not take away from the outstanding quality of this gloss. Not to tacky and not overly sticky, wears a decent amount of time for a gloss and one pot should last awhile. I have set up swaps for 2 more shades of the laquer based on my initial liking of Eros. I am a PPP w/nuetral undertones.

I have to admit, I didn't want to like this lipgloss. I purchased it at a discount at one store with the intent of exchanging it for another Glossimer at Sephora, but after sitting on it for a week and reading the raves I decided to give Eros a shot.
WOW. The raspberry color that everyone swoons about is unbelievably lush and sexy on my lips. Eros is about a shade darker than the natural color of my lips, giving them a just-made-out look. And speaking of which, I feel like NARS must pack its products with pheremones because the first time I wore it my boyfriend couldn't help himself from staring...A definite must-have! :)

This is my second NARS lip lacquer and I do like it a lot. It IS very close to the Dolce Vita lipstick but it has a slight shimmer to it and leaves a nice stain.
Also very mosturizing!

This color is oh-so-pretty. Its a dark sparkly pink that I think would suit just about every type of skin tone. I love this color.

im in love with this color! it's a beautiful raspberry shimmer shade, a MLBB on me. just like dolce vita, but in a gloss! quite similar to mac lovechild IMHO. i've never noticed a scent or anything, and i like the little container (gives me a reason to use my retractable lip brush!). it's not a whole lot of product for the price, but it's definately worth it. and if you're not ready to drop 20 bucks on a gloss, wait till it shows up in a palette=)

Oh my gosh, I don't know why I didn't get this before! Eros is a slightly shimmery YLBB raspberry shade on me. I have pigmented lips and this is great for days that I want a more natural lip look. It doesn't have that plasticy scent that some of the other lip lacquers do either. This shade would look great on anyone!

Love this color. YLBB! Even my husband loves the rasberry shimmer it leaves. The only downfall is the smell, but will definitely purchase again! Great everyday on-the-go color.

Love this shade---a beautiful raspberry color----and the texture and staying power of this lip lacquer. So far I have not noticed any sort of offensive smell like some people have mentioned in the past about Nars lip lacquers. I absolutely would buy this again.

Lovely, lovely raspberry shade! I would describe it as Nars' Dolce Vita (YLBB) in lipgloss form! Love it.

Gorgeous, warm raspberry pink that looks natural on the lips with a satiny sheen. Don't like putting my finger into the tiny little pot so I use a lip brush to apply. Overall a great lip gloss.
