love this blush! definitely one of my faves! peachy coral with a hint of shimmer. not glitter! a little bit expensive compared to most drugstore products. i got mine for 10CAD. packaging is alright but a little bulky but overall i loooove it!

DEF dupe for nars orgasm, which i also own. i like this blush better than the original orgasm. it has shimmer that is way more subtle than orgasm, and looks better on my skin overall. what more can you ask for from a drugstore brand ??? i almost feel like this is better than the original! kudos milani for making a highend product that really delivers. will repurchase. (it lasts forever!!!)

I LOVE this blush... hands down my favourite! I love the colour and the texture.. not a huge fan of the very subtle sparkles, but they're so minimal it's ok for me (and I usually hate sparkles/glitter in blush). Really lovely and natural looking and you can build it up for something more dramatic. Yes, the packaging is cheap, but so is the price. The product is a very high quality though, and I won't hit pan very soon since there's so much! Love love love.

I bought this for about $7 at a local drugstore. In MUFE terms, im an #175/Mac NC45 & the peach color doesnt show much but it is illuminating in a sense. Needless to say I haven't figured out how to work with it but I THINK I'll use it more as a highlight. The packaging is flimsy & bulky. Like a week into having it the plastic part popped out and I dont find much use of the lower compartment mirror/brush. The brush serves no use to distribute product and the mirror has to be held up or it will fall shut. continued >>

Gives me glowy cheeks with a beautiful finish, excellent pigmentation, and lasts all day. It is such an amazing blush with insane value. I also have Orgasm and this shade is peachier and more flattering on me.I am light tan Asian NC30/C4 and this blush is peachy gold in the pan and shows up a soft healthy peachy pink on my skin. This has replaced my Shiseido Satin Face Color in Petal as my HG powder blush (and saves me $20, too!).

This blush is the absolute dupe for NARS Orgasm. It is peachy pink with a golden undertone. I find this more opaque than the NARS Orgasm. I have a medium skin tone and a shade C4 from MAC, it blends well with my skin. I like the slight gold shimmer it gives a little glow in my cheeks. I didnt experience any break outs while using this one.
If you are looking for a dupe for NARS Orgasm, I highly recommend Milani Luminoso its only $6-7 on your local drugstores. I bought this in Walgreens.

Exactly like the name, just gives the most luminescent gorgeous glow!!! I am a blush freak and I don't think I've ever had a more beautiful glowy gorgeous color! And the quality and pigment is better than most high end blushes!

Love this blush! Its a pretty pearly peach on the pan, and just gives such a pretty, natural glow on the cheeks. I find myself skipping highlighter when I use this. I find that it's not necessary as this has a pearly glowy effect already. This is my first baked Milani blush. I also love Luminous and hope that isn't discontinued. NC20-25, black hair, brown eyes for reference.

Such a pretty blush, and so cheap!! Shows up beautifully on my pale skin for days when I want something a little bright and glow-y.
It doesn't last all day, but neither do my more expensive blushes.
Really you've got nothing to loose on this one.

I always wanted to try one of the Milani baked blushes. They look gorgeous and marbled in the packaging but I was curious about the actual pigmentation. I've been using this blush every day for the past month and I must say I love it! Its a beautiful coral-candy pink on the cheeks. It gives a lovely sheen to the cheeks, not too shimmery, just the perfect amount of glowy color. If you're looking for a cheap, gorgeous blush option you HAVE to check this out!

i've always wanted to try Nar's "Orgasm" blush, but it is so pricey and I don't live near a sephora. after doing some research, this blush seemed to be a good dupe and I found myself giving in and purchasing it. I'm really glad I did. the color is absolutely gorgeous and it blends so smoothly on my skin! I don't think that this color would appear on dark skin tones, however, but I could be wrong. Im mac nc25 for reference. I use this blush just about everyday, it is my new favorite; i absolutely adore and recommend it.

I really like this blush, it gives my skin a warm peachy tint and is great for the spring and upcoming warm weather. It looks super shimmery in the pan, but it doesn't seem to transfer onto the skin. It is not too sheer and not super pigmented. My favorite at the moment paired with macs cream highlighter in pearl. My one complaint is that it's kind of annoying to open, but it doesn't change my mind about the product itself.

(Click continued to see my swatches.) As with many other women out there I love my name brands, but times are a tough (recessionista!) and many drugstore products are actually quite comparable to their high end counterparts.  I was at my local CVS today and decided to try out the Milani Baked Powder Blush in Luminoso after reading some really great reviews online on Milani.  And I am quite impressed!  I've seen Luminoso being compared to NARS Orgasm.  I would say it's a little more peach/natural color, whereas NARS Orgasm is more pink, still natural, but more doll-like.  I love how blendable it is and how I can layer it and layer it on without it looking cakey.
This is how it looks like in the pan, peach w/ a touch of pink and gold.
This is how it looks on my NC40/42 skin.  Pink when swatched, but more peach/natural when blended. (Anything will look a bronzy on my naturally tanned skin.)  What I love most is there isn't too much glitter, which is perfect under the fluorescent lights of the hospital (where I work).
I can also see this looking really great on fairer skinned girls, or any colored girl.  Milani is known for it's pigmented products, and Luminoso stays true to that reputation, which is great for us tanner/darker gals.  Keep in mind that Milani Baked Powder Blushes is about $7.49 in drugstores, and comes in a 0.12 oz (3.5 g) package.  If you compare this to MAC Powder blushes, which is now $20 for 0.21 oz (6 g) it's not ahuge saving.  But every dollar counts!  And many drug stores often have BOGO sales.
Overall, I would describe it as a natural, luminous (hehe), peach flush with a hint of pink. continued >>

Here's another blush that's been touted as being a "dupe" for Nars Orgasm. In all reality, it is not an exact clone of Nars Orgasm (nor are all of the other blushes that are mentioned as being "dupes" either). However, it is still a very gorgeous blush to own nevertheless!
If you want the REAL thing, I highly suggest getting Nars Orgasm. If not, there are lots of other beautiful blushes out there to choose from (like this one) of course. And, with the Milani blushes, you certainly will be getting great quality, but at a much cheaper price.
I use both high end and lower end makeup products. Therefore, using MAC, Nars, Milani, and even Maybellline, etc., products are all perfectly fine for me.
Luminoso has a stunning, very peachy coloring to it. It also has a very slight pink undertone to it as well. It does have more of a satiny finish to it versus shimmer (in my opinion). And, it gives such a wonderful glow to my cheeks everytime that I wear it.
If you want to fake having glowing skin, this is the perfect product for you. You can not only apply it to the top of your cheeks, but also on each temple (forehead area), and on your chin too. It will give you a natural glow in all of the right places, if you choose to apply it in such ways.
And, it is perfect for use both day or night.

I'm asian and I have VERY pale skin compared to others. This blush is simply amazing because i just need a little bit of it and it will totally turn my cheeks into this rosy peachy colour. So natural looking! I love this <3 continued >>

I really didn't like this compared to NARS Orgasm. The color looks so pretty in the compact but it's really just a powdery glittery dusty blush. It does not compare to NARS in texture at all. It's hard to apply and it's not very pigmented or smooth, it's worth it's price but do not buy it expecting a higher end finish. I bought it to save money but ended up just rebuying Orgasm.

Absolutely wonderful product. Reference: in MAC I'm about NC40 but not as yellow, med-tan Indian skin.
- PRICE: For barely $10 CAD, you get a great value for money.
- PRODUCT: Excellent everyday colour, a warm pinky-peach with gold shimmer, good lasting power, and finely milled enough that it blends well. I realize that others here have said the glitter is too chunky, but on me, for some reason, it doesn't show up too brightly or glittery...it's possible that it blends in better because of my skintone. I was looking for a peach tone blush and this works great. It is very hard for me to overdo this because it's a similar shade to my skin, just with a bit of peachy-gold tone. I was also afraid it was too similar to my MAC Warm Soul but on comparison, Warm Soul is really more of a mauve, with blue undertones, and fine gold shimmer. Swatched out they actually look similar but I know the Warm Soul shows up pinker on me than peach, so I'm good!
- PACKAGING: I'll admit I'm a little less than impressed with the cheap-looking gold accented case, but hey, it's $10. Cute idea with the mirror and brush but the blush part was so heavy that when I tilted it to open up the mirror (on the base of the blush), the blush sort of snapped into the lid, and I was concerned about it shedding powder all over with the impact. The brush is a flat half-moon shape with stiff bristles that don't pick up much. I'll leave it in the compact but won't be using it much as I already have a full-size blush brush of good quality.
- VERDICT: excellent value for a very reasonable price, lovely peach-pink colour, very wearable on medium-tan skin.

This blush is really easy to apply and it has the perfect amount of shimmer for my personal taste. However, the color looked ORANGE! I have dark hair and light skin and this did not fly. I think this color will look great on olive skin so I'm keeping it and looking forward to wearing it during summer.

NOT a dupe for Nars Orgasm as widely touted on the web. I have owned both, and while the color is basically the same, the gold glitter/shimmer of Orgasm is MUCH finer then that of the Milani. Orgasm comes off as a shimmer, but Milani looks like CHUNKY glitter. If you like this, then great, but too much for me. I first bought the Milani because of the great reviews, then a friend gave me Orgasm (the color was wrong for her). After using the Orgasm, I gave my Milani blush away. I generally don't use HE brands because I can usually find something that I like just as well at the drugstore, but in this case, Nars Orgasm is definitely worth the extra $.

I absolutely love this blush. Blush has to be my favorite makeup product so me using this blush for two months straight says a lot. It is the most beautiful peachy slightly orange color, but looks so amazing. I guess I would call it a natural looking glow. Although it has great pigmentation the lasting power on my oily cheeks is not so great. Overall really worth having in your collection.
