I really don't like this blush, I brought it as a dupe to orgasm but I really don't see how they are dupable. While the color is very similar this has a lot less shimmer in it. Once applied you really can not see much shimmer. It is very pigmented which is really the only quality I like about it. While it has high pigmentation it is also the most powdery blush I have ever owned. When you use your brush there will be a huge amount of powder fall out. It looks cheap and hence why I hardly ever use it. To me a dupe needs to be more then just color wise it needs to be quality wise. This blush is nothing compared to the quality of any Nars blush and while NARS orgasm is not very pigmented you can tell that it is a much higher quality powder. If your looking for a dupe that is more then just a color dupe then this not it.

I'm a Mac NW20, on the lighter side, strong pink undertones, green eyes and I have golden blonde hair.

Purchased in Walgreens

$2.99

Comes in a nice sturdy plastic compact ~ it may not be a fancy one but you really need to keep in mind that you are paying under 3 dollars for this blush.... I'm just glad that the product inside the compact is of such high quality

Tons of pigment

Smooth application

Lasts on me from early AM until late PM

Peach/Pink

Finish ~ I can see the shimmer when I look at the blush in the pan, however, once applied all I see is a very subtle glow, and when I say "very subtle" trust me, it is very subtle. If I use a blush that has a high shimmer to it it totally ruins the looks of my skin and this does not..... this blush makes my skin gorgeous and fresh looking.... between the stunning color and the marvelous finish, well, it's a win win situation! You must try it because Pearlescent Pink gets great reviews from fair gals like myself as well as darker skin gals.

Super high quality for a ridiculously low price.

Gorgeous peachy, pink color with a hint of golden shimmer. And so inexpensive! only a couple bucks. Really great color for all skin tones.

On me, this blush looks much more like Torrid than Orgasm from Nars. Orgasm is my staple everyday blush color, and this is more pigmented than that one. I only need a tiny dab on the pan for my cheeks, and that is very impressive considering the price I paid for it. It contains 4g of product, so around the same amount as a MAC blush. I put this on my cheeks right after I've smoothed on foundation/moisturizer so that it lasts longer. I also mix it in with Becca's shimmering skin perfector to create a glowy flush on my cheeks. Overall, I like this blush a lot and I see myself wearing it often, as I find it is a good color for my NC/NW 20 skin tone. I will definitely repurchase and it might be replacing Torrid in my collection.

I feel like I am the only one who does not like this blush. But I do not like it. I have not tried the various NARS blushes it has been compared to so I can not vouch for those. But this blush just did not do it for me. I have very pale skin with pink undertones already and this blush color was just too much for my skintone. It was way too dark on me (more of a medium pink with some sparkle.) It made me looked my cheeks were flushed like I had a fever or something. It is a very pretty color when swatched but just not on my skintone. It also did not stay on my very oily skin. But you can not beat the price on this it is only $3.00 and a lot of people seem to like it but it just was not for me. I will not be purchasing this again or using the remaining blush I have left (which was pretty much the whole blush it does not even have a dent in it.) However, I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a good drugstore blush that is a medium pink color.

I was looking for a new blush after using many other brands from drug store to HE items. After reading some reviews stating that it is dupe for NARS orgasm I decided to give it a try. What a smart decision I made :D LOVE this blush. It is pink with a little bit of glod that makes this color warm. In the case it looks like there are sparkles however I do not see any once applied. Can be used day or night depeds how lightly the blush is applied. For $3 it's a steal. I will buy again no doubt about it.

After running out of my other blush, I was looking for a dupe for Nars-Super Orgasm. And I have to say WOW this blush is just so perfect. I am indian so I have naturally tan skin. I need a blush that is pink and highly pigmented to get a sheer pink color. I love that it has the gold shimmers, but they are isn't too much. It's just perfect for naturally tan skin tones. I will definetly repurchase!

I have been falling more and more in love with Wet and Wild products recently, they have been doing well.

Yay! I don't use very much blush but I love this! It's very pigmented and requires very little product for a great result. With that said, it'll last a long a time so you're really getting your money's worth. It was a little powdery at first but once i learned how to work with it, I fell in love!

This is an outstanding dupe for Benefit's Dandelion blush! Being a college student I could never really see paying $30+ for a blush, but this one was only $3 at Walgreens so I wasn't disappointed. I have to say, I am really impressed with Wet n' Wild. I bought 2 eyeshadow palettes and this blush and they are an incredible quality and value. This blush is definitely more pigmented then Dandelion, so use a light hand. But it was worth every penny and I will continue to purchase again and again and I again!

I just recently started getting interested in blush, and this was the first one I bought. I love it! What a wonderful color. It's just bright enough to give me a glow, and shimmery enough to catch the light but not enough to look gaudy. It's very pigmented so I use a light hand and a duofiber brush (the e.l.f. one), the one that comes with the blush is horrible and scratchy.
As with all WnW products, the pricepoint is excellent. I'd buy this again in a heartbeat and I'm now looking at other WnW blushes.

I swore I wasn't going to purchase any other blushes besides NARS, after being so impressed with Orgasm. However, this blush was calling my name, and after reading the positive reviews and seeing the low price tag, I just had to say buy it... It's highly pigmented, so beware! I use a light hand and am able to dust it onto my cheeks to create a very natural glow against my olive/tanned skin. It looks so pretty. There isn't TOO much shimmer, but yes there certainly is shimmer. Can't believe it was under $5(CAD). Wet 'n' Wild is great! I will be re-purchasing.

This blush is wonderful! I'm no makeup snob, I'm poor so if I find something cheap that works, I'll take it in a heartbeat. I have it in Pearlescent Pink, it's a very pretty pink-peach color that looks great on fair skin. I like how it has just a little bit of gold shimmer. It is VERY pigmented, a little goes a long way, and I absolutely love how natural it looks, I like having natural looking makeup and this does a good job. In general, I'm a fan of Wet N Wild because of the quality you get for the price, but I must say that this is my favorite Wet N Wild product! Will definitely repurchase! which at the rate I'm using it at will probably be never but when I run out I will!

Definitely a buy again, super pigmented blendable blush that might even appear like it does its job too well. Anyhow, a great addition to any kit.

This blush is perfect on my fair skin. I love the color pay off on the product and the amount of money for it was awesome. This is a beautiful peachy, pink shimmery color and is so soft and not over powering but at the same time not a total wash out color.

WOW is this stuff pigmented. Obviously, everyone has said that, but I'll say it again--WOW is this stuff pigmented. Lol! I love orange-y blushes for my NC15 skin, and I bought this on a whim. although it's called "Pearlescent Pink", there's not a drop of pink in this blush, haha. I put it on today and was in a hurry and I guess I put too much on. Got to work, did my thing, and on my LUNCH BREAK (6 hours later!!!!!) I decided to look in the mirror and WOW! I had an ORANGE face!! I literally looked like Bozo the clown, minus the frizzy red hair. This is an okay blush, just WATCH out, because the reviewers under me are right--a little goes a looooong way. I'd advise not to use the brush that comes w/it (I guess I dont practice what I preach b/c I used it this morning lol...but learn from my mistake, people!) because that bad boy picks up a LOOOOOT of product and it's prettty awkward to work w/, IMO. Good luck, and use a light hand w/this and you'll like the results.

LOVE THIS. It is a pinky gold. That's true. But have to say I like it much better than NARS Orgasm and MAC's Peachykeen. I have all three and this one shows up the best on me( NC50) The other two I have to actually build in layers to see color and not sheen, This one works in one swipe! I'm not a make up snob. BUT I would never have expected the blushes from Wet n Wild to be this wonderful!

I am amazed by this product. My skin is NW 20. I have Mellow Wine and Heather Silk and picked this up on a whim. I figured it would be too sheer and maybe too shimmery but it was only $.99 so I thought if I didn't like I could pass it on to my daughter for play makeup. Well, I am not letting her pry this out of my hands!

I tried it for the first time today and it is seriously my flush but better. It looks SO natural and pretty--as though I just came in from a brisk fall walk or a playing in the park. It is not at all sparkly but gives your face a beautiful glow. I put it on about 6 hours ago and it is still in place and just as pigmented. You could really build the color if you wanted a dramatic pink look but this is perfect for that a natural flush. This went way beyond my expectations for pink.
