This cream blush is fresh and beautiful when apply thinly on the cheeks. The shade is very unusual...something like light Fuji apple color on NC25 skin tone... Compare to MAC cream blushes, Nars...

This is the first creme NARS blush I've tried, and I love it. The NARS powder blushes are wonderful, too, but they seem to sit on top of the skin a little more than the creme blush. With Cactus...

I waited to buy this blush because I couldn't convince myself that I *needed* it. I have so many blushes that could work just as well, right? Wrong. I finally walked into a Sephora...

First off, the color is described as coral. The color has no orange or coral tones in it. This color is a very dark bright pink. And I mean vibrant pink with no orange undertones. I am not sure...

I was shocked when I first saw this shade as I opened it. Then I put it on and it was still brighter than I wanted. But it soaked in relatively quickly, and then I saw the genius of this product....
