To me, Deep Throat is the peacher, less shimmery version of Orgasm. A great everyday blush, that lasts, and lasts and LASTS! I think this shade could easily compliment a wide range of skin tones. It would have been nice, however, If NARS did not raise their price $2.50 for an already high priced blush.

Great blush, great product from NARS. A peachy-pink with some shimmer that works well for medium-skinned (MAC C4) like me. Gives a wonderful glow to the cheeks when used lightly. Not too shimmery either. A bit pricey, but definitely worth it.

As mentioned in my previous reviews, Orgasm failed to show up on me at all so I decided to try Deep Throat as the next closest thing. I wasn't disappointed at all, it shows up peachy pink on me and all of the blushes I have, this looks the most natural on me (not taking into account the shimmer). It's slightly shimmery on me but not too overwhelmingly so it does look ok on me during the day. Pricing is quite high but as it is very pigmented, you only need a little so it will last you a long time. Great purchase.

I have been searching for a shimmery peach blush for awhile now. I wanted something that wouldn't be too orange. I have & love Orgasm which shows up more pink & when I first saw Deep Throat I thought it was too close in color. Once tested it definitely showed up more peach with less shimmer & not as much gold as Orgasm. Just what I wanted. Nars does make some great blushes that have great staying power, go on smooth & are easily buildable. If you are in search of a subtle peach with just a hint of shimmer do check this one out.

Very similar to my Shu P47 so that's the only reason why I wouldn't purchase again. I like the Shu packaging more b/c it stays clean unlike the Nars packaging which looks great new but gets smudgy quick. Blends well, perfect peach.

Bought this blush at macys. The color and shimmer are amazing. I love it, the prefect peachy-pink color with just enough shimmer to highlight and define cheeks. It seemed like such a small amount for 20 dollars but it goes a long way! Looks good on any coloring, too. I've put it on numerous friends of mine.

This is such a flattering shade. Deep Throat is a soft peach with a touch of shimmer for added radiance. It brightens up my face instantly and effortlessly. The texture is the same as all of the NARS blushes - superb and definately worth the money you fork out for them. I believe that Deep Throat would look gorgeous on most complextions, as it is more *mature* than brighter pink hues and easy to work with. When I am on the run, I just swipe some mascara and lip gloss on and I am ready =)

This is the ultimate in blush!!! The color is the most beautiful peach with a hint of gold shimmer. Looks great on my tanned (fake) skin but would look wonderful IMO on any skin type. This is my first NARS blush (don't laugh - I'm new to this) & I'm definately impressed!! Lasts all day & doesn't streak in this hotter than you-know-where weather!

Fabulous. I use it as a highlighter over a peach cream blush. Orgasm was too pink and shimmery -- Deep Throat is perfect.

Another winner from the fabulous Nars line. The color adds such a pretty, healthy flush to the cheeks and is so natural looking. It gives you the radiant glow we all want. Love it.

imho, this is the best nars blush, and i have eight of them.
it is peachy, with shimmer. i think it is a more pigmented version of orgasm, which doesn't quite show up on me that well.
it is peachier too, so if you love peach with gold shimmer, this is the one for you.
i was ecstatic when i saw it in the pan, and it looks even better on my cheeks!!
this is one nars blush that is actually worth the money!!

I really like this shade - works well on my PPP/LLL skin. I've got pink undertones, but this doesn't accentuate that problem. Just adds a nice sheen of color. I like that it has a little shimmer to it, but not too much. Looks very similar to L'Oreal's Raspberry Sorbet, but better quality.

Since I like Orgasm ok I thought I would try Deep Throat. But it was just too light for me. Looks very pretty in the compact but too shimmery and too light for me and I have no need for such a high priced highlighter. Swapped it away.

I actually got this over a month ago, and forgot to write the review! Deep Throat is Orgasm's newfound sister--except lighter and peachier. In comparison, Orgasm is much, much pinker. DT is quite shimmery, but it's the nice subtle shimmer you don't really notice until you're out in the sun, or if the light hits your face in a certain way. I wasn't too sure that this one would work for my olive MMM skintone, but I gave it a try, nevertheless, and guess what--it looked beautiful! On me, it looks very peachy, with a hint of pink. It looks darker on than it does in the pan, which is strange, but relieving. I wear this one w/ my bronze lip shades, and it looks great. This is my summer staple blush; I doubt I'll use it up (a lot o' blush in them little pans!), but if I do, I'll certainly shell out $20 to buy a new one!!! UPDATE: I love this blush more every time I wear it! I always get compliments with this one!

Deep throat has surpassed Orgasm as my favorite NARS blush. It is a light warm pink with subtle gold shimmer -- not nearly as shimmery nor as peachy as Orgasm -- that looks quite natural and pretty on my pale olive complexion.

This is my first NARS blush blush.I have South Beach,but I was looking for a powder version for the summer months.Omg-this is gorgeous,shimmery,not over the top,just a nice,fresh glow.My former husband was here yesrerday and he did a double take when I told him the name of the blush.I told him there was also one called "Orgasm"-I initially thought I wanted Orgasm,and who doesn't?-but Deep Throat worked(ahem)better for me.

What a beautiful pinky peach with subtle gold shimmer. Unfortunately, it did not show up on my MMM skin. It would have looked so pretty though if it did :(
If NARS orgasm didnt show up on ur skin, this may not show up either. If your fair or pale, it'll probably look really nice and natural on you skin.

I'm almost too dark (MMM/GGG) for this to show up as a blush on me, so I need to build it; however, I can also use it as highlighter so I feel I have the best of both worlds with it. That said, it is a gorgeous pink-peach-gold that gives a very angelic light to the face - not a tacky shimmer, just a subtle flush. I've also used it as eyeshadow.
Like my other NARS blush, this has incredible staying power and has actually lasted through some intense workouts. All in all, absolutely beautiful. Edited to note: if you feel this or Orgasm is not pigmented enough for you, try it on top of a light Stila Amaryllis. It's perfect.
