I am so in love with this color. Most people are in love with orgasm but I think Deep Throat is by far the best color Nars makes.

It is a beautiful pink color with a golden sheen to it. It's silky to the touch and to apply. The color is buildable and goes with every eye look I have come up with - smokey, natural... it always looks amazing!

I would recommend this color to everyone and their mother (in fact my mother in law loves it lol)

The price is a bit steep - but you get what you pay for with this color.

I walked into Sephora, not knowing what I wanted, but knowing that I would not leave without something. I walked over to the NARS section, it being one of my favourite brands and all, and checked out the blushes, considering I don't have many. I knew one of my friends was planning on getting me Orgasm, and they look similar to me, but I got this one anyway. I love it. The pigmentation is great, and it looks great on my tan skin! I love this blush!

I really like Deep Throat. It gives a healthy flush of colour and lasts all day. It is not too shimmery (not obvious), but not matte (chalky). I don't think the description really fits the colour (or not mine at least). I found it to be more pinkish than peachy.
It was my first NARS blush purchase, and I am happy with my choice!

I wasn't sure how this blush would look on my olive skin tone. I tried it on and it looked so great! It's very pigmented but it goes on nicely and has a soft look to it. Definitely one of my favorite Nars blushes.

Ok, so for my birthday i had a gift card to Sephora and I really needed some blush, and what better brand do I turn to for that? NARS...

I know that Orgasm is the cult favorite and blahblahblah but I wanted something a lot more pinker and a lot more suitable to wear everyday.

I swatched every blush they had and was stuck between Amore and Deep Throat so... you know which won, and it was the best money I had spent on makeup that season. Very pigmented, great for eveeryday, not too heavy not too light. just perfect!

I am not very adventurous when it comes to makeup because usually I have my set of products that I'm happy with and I don't usually go out to try out new things.
However I decided to go for a new blush because I wasn't happy with my MUFE #18 blush anymore because during winter my face tends to show more redness and I felt that the blush accentuated the redness under my foundation so I decided I wanted to go for a more peachy pink colour and after looking at all the reviews I decided that I wanted to give the NARS Deep Throat a try (I was almost going to buy Orgasm but found it a little too intense as an everyday blush).

This blush has a really beautiful peachy pink colour which I find is a more wearable version of Orgasm. It is a shimmery blush which I was a bit wary of because I prefer matte blushes since I have oily skin and I don't like my face to look shiny/oily so I stay away from any shimmer or glitter on my face. It does look glittery in the packaging but once you put it on it looks really natural and it has great staying power so I don't need to touch up during the day.

It is expensive but it will last a long time so I definitely recommend this product!

I wanted a peachy pink blush that I could wear during the daytime. I have the Nars Orgasm blush which I absolutely love so thought that Deep Throat would have the same kind of look when applied.
I would describe the colour as a fresh peachy pink, its actually a beautiful colour but the reason I have given this 3 stars is because it just seemed to sit on top of my skin, which isn't the look I wanted :-(

I have only used it twice. Looks like it will be sitting in my make up drawer for now..

I've always been a lazy blush-user and am usually not motivated to find new brands when the one I'm using works for me, so for the longest time I'd been using Well-Dressed by MAC. The pan is finally reaching its end and I decided to hunt around for another brand, just for the fun of it. The great reviews of Nars brought me to the counter (which incidentally just opened its first store here in SG) and, well to keep a long story short, I asked for a coral/peachy colour that wouldn't look too stark or shiny on my Asian, fair-cool skin tone (I wanted a slightly more natural colour that still showed) and was recommended Deep Throat. Used it for the second time today and I love it!


It's so much more pigmented than Well-Dressed and the colour goes on nicely and smoothly. It's very easy to blend into my cheeks. I over-dabbed with my blush brush yesterday and learnt my lesson today, and just two taps with my brush and I've got all the colour I need for my cheeks. The colour is also a very pretty shade of coral that brings out my cheekbones nicely. I love how it looks on me and will definitely buy it again! Only possible downside is that it's pretty pricey for a small pan but it looks like it'll last a very long time given how little I need to last the entire day. I love the packaging - small, nifty and can fit very neatly into my little makeup pouch.


I've bought another palette of Well-Dressed cos it's my HG shade of pink but with Nars Deep Throat giving me a slightly different look now, I don't think I'll be blush-hunting again for a long time!

One of my favorite blushes for daily use. As beloved as Orgasm is, I can't deal with the glitteriness and pinkness. Somehow, even though I've seen it work on a number of folks, it always looks juvenile on me. But Deep Throat has a great golden sheen that doesn't emphasize pores likes Benefit Coralista, and strikes a great balance between peach and pink. It's not cheap, but the pigmentation means you don't have to use much product per use. I've got my mom and sister hooked on it now too! Highly recommended.

This is my 3rd NARS blush and I have to say it's one of my ultimate favs. The color is a pink peach with gold shimmer but like was said you won't be a disco ball. When I applied this and I barely touched the pan the color came out so amazing on my skin. I'm a NW-15-20 and this is just great on my skin tone. It looked like it belonged and like others said no matter what eye makeup this color goes with it!! I love that it doesn't have any glitter because i prefer something like NARS O to go out this is more a daytime anytime blush.

It applies like a dream and for me it lasted a long time like 8 hours long. I could have touched it up but the fade was a nice glow.Another cool thing is this blush looks very natural for the amount of shimmer. I took some pics and it looks fantastic in pictures ie, natural:) I do think I am a NARS blush convert as I can't see myself using something else because the quality is so good. The payoff is excellent and for me it lasts. This is one of those blushes that I feel I'll never hit the pan on because you only need a little.

I can see how this can be a universal color because a couple more swipes and I can see how easily it would work on darker skin tones. Out of the hyped NARS blushes ahem Orgasm I really think the hype applies to this blush it really is beautiful and looks excellent on. I do highly recommend this to those who like a blush with shimmer more so than glitter. Plus it will last you a very long time.

This became my new blush when my beloved MAC Oh So Fair was discontinued. It is the most gorgeous blush under the sun! I'm pale with cool undertones, and this baby goes fantastically well with absolutely everything! You name it: blue eyeshadow, brown eyeshadow, purple eyeshadow, nude lipstick, red lipstick, smoky eye, no-makeup makeup... it's the only blush I use. I hope the hype continues and that NARS never stops making this. Some hyped products ARE worth it. This one certainly is. I love ya Deep Throat! (love the name too BTW).

Orgasm used to be my hg blush but since getting some lines around my eyes, I found that the glitter in it migrated upward and emphasised them. Deep Throat is probably easier to wear. It is still a pretty peach pink but much less glittery and lovely with pale skin like mine. I love Nars blushes but hate the names. It is bad enough asking for 'Orgasm' in a busy store. Now I have to ask for 'deep throat' Couldn't they just call it 'peach' ?

I love Nars blush and this has to be up there with my favourite colours.

Such a pretty soft colour and as usual with Nars a little goes a long way.

Big fan of this.

Now this is the NARS blush for me. The color is just the right bronzy flush and not too much sparkle. I won't say it's may favorite blush, but it does give my cheeks a pretty color.

I like this blush... which I think is a peachy pink but it's pretty much pink on my skin. Orgasm had all the hype and when I checked it out, it was just too glittery for me. So the assistant had recommended Deep Throat and put it on me. I bought this last year from Mecca Cosmetica (clearly overpriced seeing as all makeup in Australia is), so honestly, I wouldn't mind spending $27 on this blush if I had decided to buy it in the US.

The packaging is pretty good and comes with a mirror, which I like (except I don't tend to use it because I don't have the need to fix up my blush when I'm out). The only thing I don't like is that it attracts a lot of the particles and so it ends up looking pretty dirty after a lot of use. I've never dropped the blush, so I don't know if it shatters easily.

I would consider purchasing this blush but I find that it's a bit too unnatural for my liking. It's perfect for night but during the daytime, I have to be light on the application for it to look natural.

This blush is kind of a no-brainer in the sense that this goes with anything that I decide to wear. I especially like to wear it when I do darker eye makeup. It isn't my favorite blush shade by any means. I prefer my blush to be warm and vibrant; this is warm and subtle. In other words, it's a safe but nice color. A lot of people say Orgasm is similar and that DT is a shade to try if you didn't like O. I agree and disagree. It really depends on what you're looking for. Deep Throat looks like a coral-pink on me, whereas O looks like a neutral-warm pink (thus more neutral than DT). DT also has less shimmer.


NARS blushes have a really nice formula that is hard to beat, IMO. This one isn't an exception.

For reference, I'm a NC40 and this blush is amazing on my skin. It's the perfect shade of glowy peach. It's not too glittery like orgasm and there's a better color pay-off than orgasm.

I am a blue eyed NW10 (NW20 when tanning from a bottle).

This is a great natural looking blush. It appears slightly coral, like a toned-down Orgasm without all of the intense glitter chunks. Good purchase.

PS - I found a dupe. Only difference is that instead of gold glitter, the blush has a gold metallic shimmer to it. I swatched them side by side, and it's uncanny how similar they are, and they both have very strong reviews. Check out Milani Powder Blush in Luminous.

Deep Throat was my first NARS product a few years ago and it is still one of my favorites. Like many other reviewers mentioned, there is a lot less shimmer in this blusher than Orgasm. This is a versatile pink that looks great on just about everyone. Recommend.
