This adorable little blush is super affordable and perfection. It's the perfect color in my opinion. Lasts all day long, subtle shimmer, natural looking, and comes in super cute packaging. I couldn't ask for more.

I bought this because I read it was a dupe for Orgasm, except this was all light shimmer on me and my mother. for reference we are both NC25- NC30 and we both thought it too light. I returned it.

I was hesitant to get this because of the shimmer, as all of my other NYX blushes are matte. I love the formula because it applies so smooth and blends out well.

I agree that this color is a dupe of NARS orgasm, but so much better in so many ways. It doesn't have chunky glitter in it and has much more finely milled texture, in my opinion. It gives your cheeks the 'just pinched' look as the name implies, but also an elegant sheen.

It lasts all day without turning splotchy like the NARS blushes do on my skin.

100% satisfaction with this product, compared to the disappointment I've experienced with every NARS blush I've ever purchased. If you're looking for an inexpensive alternative, check the NYX blushes out!!

this can be a dupe for NARS orgasm. i got this because it was either spend $4 for this or $27 for nars.. i went with this and was not disappointed. great color payoff and not too shimmery/glittery.

I really like this blush. This is my first NYX product in general, and I know I'll be buying more from this brand.
This blush is a beautiful coral-peachy-pink with minimal goldish shimmer. It's modestly pigmented and gives my fair, warm-netural skin a gorgeous flush. I apply it with my E.L.F. blush brush and it lasts... for a while, but not as long as alot of other blushes I own. Hence the 4 lippies- I own cheaper blushes that last longer than this one. I find that mineral blushes last ALOT longer on my skin than regular powder ones. So, my $4 Wet 'n' Wild mineral blush in Rose Shimmer- a similar color to NYX Pinched- would be my first choice over this one when I reach for a blush in my makeup basket.
Another gripe is the packaging. It's just awful. It's difficult to get it open, and the plastic is just pathetically flimsy. However, I do love the NYX logo. It's classy. I just wish their packaging was more similar to E.L.F.'s, which has fantastic blush and eyeshadow compacts.
I can't wait for my next trip to Ulta to pick up more NYX stuff!

I love this blush so so much! This is the first blush I've ever had from NYX and I am sad I waited this long! It is super pigmented and the slight shimmer gives your skin a flawless glowy flush. This looks great on my fair skin!

I love this blush! Although it is very shimmery, it leaves my skin glowing especially during the winter. It brings a lot of warmth to my face and has to be one of my favorite blushes of all time.

This was the first NYX blush I ever purchased and I love it! It's super pigmented and gives my cheeks a nice glow. I apply it with either my e.l.f blush brush or an angled brush I have from harmons. I can't wait to try more shades!

This was one of the first Blushes by Nyx that I tried out. The colour is great on me. Looks good on my skin all year round and is a staple in my makeup collection. Definitely something I reach for on an almost daily basis and when in a rush. Packaging is nice, if your sticker doesn't come off well, use a bit of methelayted spirits to get it off.
