I owned at least three free gift with purchase minis of the original Orgasm blush, but I always give them away because it’s essentially a highlighter shade for my skin tone.

Like you lusted and lusted and lusted for it, had the money to boot but the product refused to make itself available? For an ethereal glow, smile to highlight apples of the cheek and brush the product on the area before blending it out and down. It is pigmented to the max, as many NARS blushes are, but this one is even more so than the average NARS blush. As for Exhibit A, it looks a bit rough in the photo, but that’s because I forgot to reapply my foundation between wiping off the previous shade and applying this new one. I have very fair skin and I usually suit these type of peachy colours, but in this case I'm better off without it.They look similar in swatches, but High Demand is a brown-red whereas Just Lust is more of a berry shade. I literally skipped to the Nars stand only to get the worst news in my makeup history, Nars Taj Mahal had been discontinued. Much more of a girly pink and much was neon than in the picture, this blush goes on to give a natural yet still super girly flush of pink, I love it! Sam Fine, known as the master makeup artist for women of color, pointed to NARS Taj Mahal blush for any women of color in his blog. These soft, buildable shades deliver a wide range of effects, from ultra-sheer to powerful pops of color.

A range of iconic shades in matte, satin, and shimmering finishes—including cult-favorite peachy-pink Orgasm—create endless looks. We do not ensure whether the published reviews originate from consumers who have actually used or purchased the product. Buildable shades from sheer to bold deliver a natural wash of color to every skin tone—a light swipe of even the highest-intensity hues deliver a natural-looking flush. For that reason, I mostly stuck to using Takeover as a highlighter or mixing it with Watch Me if I didn’t reach for a different highlighter altogether.The biggest selling point for me was getting my hands on Taj Mahal, one of the beauty industry’s most famous orange blushes, and Exhibit A which I completely forgot I already owned. From within their own brand, I prefer Nars’ mattes over their satins but I like satins more than the shimmers.

I am a NW20 and Yes i do have to be careful with it and use a very light hand but it’s totally worth it!

It really goes absolutely well with every skin tone and any skin types (dry/normal/oily/combination). Earth tones turn up with shimmering shades of rose, golden brown, and cream, accented by a warm matte brown—all inspired by the rich natural beauty of the Mojave Desert. Not being able to decide is kind of a decision in itself because if it’s not a blush I can quickly say I like, then I know I won’t use it.This one can give my face a beautiful healthy sun-kissed glow, even when I feel like death warmed over. This needs just the slightest sweep to give a flushed look and I should imagine it will last forever! It’s definitely not a bad product in terms of quality, but one has to like statement blushes as well as this type of shimmer at this level of intensity. Angelika: This looks super scary in the pan but if you apply the tiniest amount you can get the most gorgeous flushed look to your cheeks. At the time, Watch Me was even too light for me to use, or at least I was into more subtle highlighters closer to my skin tone.

It gives skin an added warmth and subtle glow from the shimmer-sheen, and if you go easy, it’s very, very wearable and flattering. I will try my best to get use out of what I currently have, and everything else from Nars I’m still interested in because they usually make products that work really well on my face! Exhibit A leans a touch on the orange side, but considering the Love shade from Beautopsy also leans orange, I feel I have my bases covered in being able to absolutely dupe out Exhibit A. com is an Introducer Appointed Representative of Pay4Later Limited, trading as Deko, which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 728646). Highly pigmented, NARS blushers rarely disappoint, this blush is a vivid orange that turns slightly more red once applied to the skin, with a beautiful tone complimenting gold sheen.

I've been very pleased with brown and vanilla eye shadows and MAC's Chilie lipstick, a burnt orange color. On myself it goes to a peachy tone and more red in the areas where I have applied more product, with a golden shimmer running throughout. I highly recommend a NARS blush if you’re on a budget and want a blusher that will last a long time. I realized my nw20/30 winter blushes weren’t cutting it on my faux tanned skin (nc43), so I jumped at Exhibit A and Taj Mahal.
