Blush -NARS - Orgasm Blush

I'll admit that this is a lovely colour. There is A LOT of shimmer in here though, so if you're not a fan of that, then this may not be for you. It looks straight up pink on me, I don't see a hint of peach in it. I actually have to swipe this on my brush a few times before the powder gets on it for me to use and to show up, and I'm pretty light skinned. I find the texture of this is a lot different compared to their other shades, in a bad way. I don't know if I got a dud, but if feel the powder of Orgasm compared to other shades such as Luster or Desire, it's not as smooth and maybe even a little rough. I do like the colour, and others may too, but personally, I don't think that it lives up to the hype, but instead, because of its atrocious name ;)

Blush -NARS - Luster

This blush is absolutely incredible. Unlike the cult favourite Orgasm blush, this blush is very smooth and such a nice, fine texture. It is a pretty light colour, so it is hard to over due. I personally like to pack on this blush, but sometimes I do like the natural 1-2 sweeps of this on each cheek and it looks gorgeous. It's a really nice peachy colour with gold in it, and on my skin, it has that very teeny little tinge of pink on it so it doesn't just look, bleh. However, if you are looking for a peach blush, give this one a shot because it is definitely much more of a peach than a pink. There are some shimmers in this too, which I personally like because it's kind of like a highlighter in one. At the same time, I can imagine myself using this in the winter where a bronzer might seem too much for me and I can use this on my cheeks but add a little bit of contour as well, since I'm into lazy people products :). It is pricey especially since it was $36 dollars (tax included) or so in Canada, but I personally think it's very well worth it, because I love it so much. I love NARS packaging even if it gets dirty easily, it's very sleek and kind of makes me feel a little more 'glam' if I take this out in public to use the compact mirror because I find it very handy too! I own a lot of other NARS blushes, but this is definitely the one that I reach for all the time.
