I FINALLY got this after all this time! I must say that I'm actually quite dissapointed, I'm an warm LLL (MAC C2/NC20 LM warmIvory)and on my complexion it looked more pinky than peach, but it didn't really brighten up my face at all, it didn't really make any sort of statement, or flatter me at in any special way, it just didn't work out for me unfortunatley, I'm still a fan of NARs blushes and there's no question that i think they're the best in the industry, just didnt' work out for me : (

I had such high hopes for this shade with all the raves it gets. Orgasm, a peachy-pink with lots of gold shimmer just didn't do it for me. This would look great on those with Cool undertones, but on my Warm PPP coloring, it just looked too bright and pink. Luckily for me, Nars makes plenty of great, unique colors to choose from! :-)

Of course, i too must say that i abhor the NARS packaging because it get's dirty so easily, but i also love it since it feels so luxurious to the touch! :-) Surprisingly, this color showed up quite well on my tanned/LM golden beige/BB warm natural skin. Bright (but not too bright) pinky pastel peach color, but more on the pink side on me. Gave me a fresh pop of innocent summery color, but i won't say it's a natural shade since i don't turn pink when i blush! The shimmer leaves a sheen-y look. Oh, and I love wearing this with MAC lipglass in Lust. UPDATE: hmm.. is this breaking me out? Just to be safe, i might be swapping this :-( 2nd UPDATE: swapped for this again. LOL! no probs this time but i find it not as pigmented as i like. Maybe i'm too used to Crazed and Exhibit A.

Love the color, but this just isn't for me. I thought the color would be too pale for my light olive skin, but it showed up nicely. However, the subtle shimmer accentuated my (oily) cheekbones, which need no further spotlight. Also, I just don't care for powder blushes. With my oily skin, I'll stick to stains, which seem to have better staying power.

Nars Orgasm is worth all its hype. It is flattering and has wonderful staying power. I agree with the criticisms about the packaging. The compact gets dirty quickly. It is worth the trouble. Amazing product and a must have for all.

I've decided that this is a GORGEOUS color!!! Orgasm is a peachy pink that's shimmery, without looking too frosty. This blush makes me look like I'm glowing from within. Very natural color. Think of that flush you get when you orga....well, no need to go there, you know what I mean. Highly pigmented and blends well. Color stays true all day. I love it.

Except for the price love everything about it! Looks like a healthy glow on daytime but the shimmer shines thru in the evening. Wow!
EDIT: I am a LLL but this barely shows on me! It probably has something to do with peach/gold blending into yellow toned skin. I practically have to swipe my cheek on the pallette itself to get a flush. Fades fast too and leaves only a slight shimmer. Could use a wide and flat blush brush for that price.

This is the only blush I've ever used all the way to the pan and then rebought. It's truly a fabulous color, a neutral golden pink which is particularly good for fair skin. If I could only own one blush this would be it.

This indeed is the best blush I've ever come across. It's a perfect color for me, with both pink and peach colors in it. It gives me a healthy glow if I apply it lightly, or a seriously sexy flush if a I layer it. Gorgeous in the pan and on the skin, I can see why this is a favorite of many. The name is perfect too :). I love it and will always get more.

Okay, so it's a little late for me to be jumping on the Orgasm bandwagon (though never too late! *wink*), but this thing is fabulous! I thought it looked really boring in the pan, but it goes on this gorgeous, glowy pink. It's very noticeable but not obvious, if that makes any sense -- it looks very natural on despite the fact that it totally changes your appearance! I like to layer it for a sort of feverish look, and the gold shimmer in it is unique and *HOT*!

I adore this blush! The color is so pretty and it has the faintest bit of frost. "Orgasm" is a pretty peachy hue with a golden sheen...so pretty. My only complaint is the packaging. It is a chic little container but the matte texture of it attracts anything in my makeup bag and it always looks dirty!

Gotta hand it to that NARS marketing department. This blush is regular NARS caliber, but really it's nothing special other than the name. Sex sells, and the more controversial the better. I'd like to work at NARS-- my proposed names for next summer's lineup-- foreplay, spank, S&M, handcuffed, mile-high clubbing, nipple... ewww ok, maybe not nipple.

This is a beautiful peachy/pink blush. I can't really decribe the color, you have to see it for yourself. This does last, and you hardly have to use any of the product. It does have shimmer, but what shimmer it does have hardly shows up on me. It just gives me a nice glow. This comes in a small compact, with a mirror, but no blush brush -- which is a good thing because you can't even use those with good results. The package is soft, which is probably why every time I use mine, I always put it back in the small type box it came in.

well, I'm just going to say what everyone else has already said- this really is a beautiful color, and the quality of the blush itself is great. It was worth the 20 bucks I plunked down for it. I just had a baby boy, and the other day I was wearing Orgasm and a friend told me I looked so beautiful after having my son- she said I had a "new mother glow". I wasnt about to tell her it was just the blush I was wearing!!:)

So i finally jumped on the banwagon for peach blush. WEll, this does give me that "glow" and I love the perfect pink peach in it. If u only own one peachypink blush...this should be it!

Ok, thanks to all the raving reviews here on MUA, I went and spent a large amount of money on the blush, the most I have ever spent on 1 blush in my life. Boy, am I glad I did, you guys are right! I am a PPP and this color showed up more peach than pink on my freckled face. It looked absolutly gorgeous, the shimmer is so subtle that I really didn't even notice it. I had two compliments on my blush today and I cannot recall that ever happening to me before! So to any one riding the fence on this, and since I can only recommend it to people with my PPP w/cool undertones, I would say go out and get it, it looks amazing!

I agree that this is a wonderful shade for pale skin as it really brightens up the face. It's also nice and gives a pretty glow when tan. Very versatile and goes with just about any makeup shade. Appears more rosey then peach on me. Just the right amount of shimmer. Gorgeous!

Awesome blush! Probably the best blush I've ever tried. It gives a very natural looking glow. It also looks great on fair skin.

This is my everyday blush - I'm a PPP and this looks very natural on me. It goes on very sheer tho so I can understand all the griping by the darker skinned women.
Hate the rubber-like case - looks grimy no matter what I do.

Given all the great (and not so great)reviews I had to try this out for myself. This is the nicest blush I have ever tried, a beautiful colour (peach/pink/gold) with a lovely shimmer to it. Although it is a powder blush it doesn't look at all powdery/cakey. It goes on really easily and seems to stay on pretty well. I will definately be purchasing again.
