I ordered this online about a week or so
after it came out. I heard a huge rave from a fellow MUAer and since we have the
same skintone, I got excited and purchased it. =) All in all, I never complain
about NARS blush of any color. However, this one is PINK!! Very pigmented. I
mean, it's not ugly which is why I gave it a four. It's very nice however, I
need to somehow manage to not pick up so much w/ my brush. If you love pink pink
blushes with a little shimmer and can make it work, this one is gorgeous. However if you like more of
a subtle look, i'd try something else like desire.



Edited: use a skunk brush and you'll be fine! =)

I keep staring at this pretty color in the pan! Perfect bright, girly pink!

There are definitely noticeable silver sparkles in this blush, but they are NOT chunky or childlike when it is applied. I stay so far away from any product that would look like that! I am a 25 year old, and pretty conservative in my appearance, but this is a must have.

Apply with a light hand and you will be fine. I am a MMM and it is not too bright for me when applied lightly.

This is the most girly, most beautiful, must stunning blush i've ever seen in my life!!!! I just had to have it. Just owning it makes me feel more girly. I love the light silver shimmer in it, perfect for the holidays :). It just gives you a bright, yet natural, in from the cold, flush that's simply amazing. Definately a must have, or at least a must try for everyone.

It doesn't get better than this! Angelika is gorgeous both in the pan and on my face. It has already replaced Mata Hari as my favorite blush of all time. Soft yet-still-there color. For those with darker complexions, you might want to dust Angelika over your regular blush

This is gorgeous pale pink with lovely silver sparkles. Unfortunately, this color is way too pale for a DDD like me. I was very disappointed when I received it, definitely not a universal blush. But on lighter complexions, this would be sooo pretty!!Update: I tried this again today and realized this wasn't as pale as I thought it was. Maybe a keeper.

Deserving of the name! Gorgeous ethereal pink with heavenly sparkle. This is on the cool side and when I put it on my NC35 face (tanned right now) it just looked so natural. I think this would look good on anyone except for a person of deep color!

Love this blush! It's a medium pink with LOTS of silver shimmer. So very pretty. It's a slightly lighter NARS Desire, but with loads of shimmer. But I don't find that the shimmer is that over the top, just beautiful and wearable for me day or night. The shimmer is similar to Lancome's Pink Pool, but the color is different. Compared side by side, pink pool is a little "warmer" and Angelika has more blue tones. Another winner from NARS that will look fabulous with falls purple and gem toned fashions.

This blush is really beautiful. It's a medium matte pink with a fine silver shimmer running through it. It looks sooo pretty on! I waited forever for this to come back in stock on Beauty.com and boy was it worth the wait! I'm tempted to say that this is my favorite NARS Blush and I have almost allof them. It gives my face a nice pink flush and the shimmer doesn't bother me at all. The staying power is excellent and it doesn't bother my extra sensitive skin. Big huge rave from me on this one!

A matte ballet pink with tiny (very minute) silvery glitter is an accurate discription. A very unique color, not too light and not too dark and not like anything I own. It's definitely a blush, not a shimmer powder or highlighter (I compared it to my Stila AOS #6 and Bobbi Brown Pink Shimmerbrick). I see this color as a holiday party/evening out blush with gray smokey eyes. Like all Nars blushes, it has great pigment. I'm happy to have this in my growing collection, but I won't use this everyday.

This is a pretty color but I will not rebuy again as I doubt I will wear this all that often. This is extremely glittery, not irridescent or shimmery but big chunks of glitter. The color goes on quite sheer but as you apply to get more coverage you get a ton of glitter. While I have no qualms about people wearing glitter, this makes me feel like I look like a little kid experimenting with makeup and is therefore a little too much for daytime. The color is in between Mata Hari and Desire and the glitter seems to be gold and silver. Fun, but not something I will use often at all.
