Blush - Exhibit A

I do love this blush - though I don't reach for it as often anymore. Applied very lightly it looks like a very natural flush on my NC 30-35 skin. Worth buying if you like blush because I don't think there is anything quite like it out there. Two stars off packaging because I hate that rubbery packaging of NARS - it always looks dirty. I will have this forever - it would be nice if …Read more

I am surprised that I had not written a review for Exhibit A, here goes:
I am a former commercial makeup artist and there are few things from the civilian retail world that I carry as standard equipment in my tackle box, Exhibit A is one, a true red, not quite a tomato red but not a red with any blue whatsoever. It is universally agreed upon by makeup artists as well as cosmetic companies …Read more

The second blush in my 20+ years of wearing makeup that I enjoy using. I don't think I would ever try it without watching Wayne's Goss YouTube channel. It looks scary, bright red, but creates the most natural color pop that I can use with any lipstick color.
For my light-medium skin, a light hand is a must. It lasts all day when applied over foundation, half-day on bare skin. A …

I needed to revamp my blushes this summer summer since my addiction to faux tan turned my spring nw30 into tipping almost over nc43. So I already own 2 nice hot pink MAC blushes but wanted some warmer options so I chose nars Exhibit A and Taj Mahal (reviewed separately). Exhibit A is great cuz it’s a natural flush and used with a light hand will work any skin tone any season. Yes it’s fire engine …Read more

I use a small fluffy fan brush going up my cheek to just below the temple, or a small almond shaped blush brush For Wayne Goss's sexy blush method. For a long time I only used Exhibit "A", Milani Luminoso or Nars Desire; I bought "A" around ten years ago and it still looks basically new. Works as well as it did the day I bought it. It's powder, so don't worry …Read more

This is easily my favourite powder blush by far! I recently discovered (by accident) that bright red or coral colours really, really suit me and give me the most beautiful flush of colour.

Exhibit A is one of my go-to blushes nowadays. It's very pigmented, so if you're of a lighter complexion you might want to proceed with caution. However, with careful application, this is …Read more

This blush is great when you need to finish your look off with the tiniest pop of color. Definitely not a blush to liberally sweep up with a fluffy brush - I learned that the hard way early on. But just a light tap on each cheek gives a really beautiful glow. Since so little is needed this blush will last forever.

Like others have said you only need the tiniest bit to get a snow white flushed look. I use to love natural beauty by tarte amazonian but ive always felt that one is too pink/fuscia on my nc20 skintone. I much prefer this one which is a true tomato red. Its scary to see and swatch but with a stippling or fan brush it will give you the natural flushed look specially for winter. a trick is to just …Read more

I've got this in the Unfiltered cheek palette. I love that it's so different to the usual pink/rosy blushes I usually use. It's very pigmented so you need a light hand and a fluffy not too dense brush. Im medium toned (NC30) and it comes up a red-orange on me. I enjoy the quality of nars blushes. The only reason I wouldn't repurchase is its expensive and I have quite a few …Read more

I would buy this again in a heart beat. $30 for a blush is a lot but so worth it. This blush stays on forever and blew my other blushes out of the water. Everyone flushes in some form of reddish pink color. This blush mimics that. Use a light hand in application and it will look natural. If you want to own just one blush, this is the one. It's a warm red and will suit every skin tone.
