NARS Orgasm Blush Review and How Best To Apply Blusher

Ahh hello lovelies, so today is a product review, I feel like I haven't done a deep product review for a while so here we go. Inside this miniscule compact is something which the blogging world goes crazy for. Who'd have thought that something so magical, beautiful and so lust-over could come in such a small package. The compact itself is so light, it's sort of like the Mac book air of the cosmetics industry. Perfectly light and perfectly compact, but the outer shell is modern and will look beautiful in any make up collection. I've got to be honest and say that I don't really wear blusher, at all, however, seen as everyone raves about ths product and I do think that every girl needs a blusher in her life, just incase, I had to buy it. I absolutely love the simplicity of NARS packaging, it's so high range yet the prices aren't that expensive. This is my first ever purchase from NARS and at £21.00 for such a cult product, I don't think it is that bad, it is when you're me, on a student budget but don't we all deserve a treat once in a while?

What they say about it; 'The ultimate authority in blush, natural, healthy-looking colour that immediately enlivens the complexion. A light application of even the highest intensity hues delivers a natural-looking flush'. The creator said 'when I created orgasm blush, I came up with the name first then created the colour. I wanted something a bit audacious'. An audacious it is, this basically means that he wanted something extremely bold or daring; recklessly brave; fearless etc. I think this colour fits that mould, but somehow, I can't help but think it's a flirtatious colour for the cheeks, it gives you a flushed look as if you have just been flirting, which is another reason where I guess the name 'Orgasm' came from for this blusher.

Because I don't usually wear blush, I looked on the NARS website for some tips when applying this blush and I wanted to share them with you;

1. 'Blush is the fastest and easiest way to give yourself a pick-me-up. Start by applying blush to the apples of the cheeks. Take what's left on the brush and sweep across the hairline, bridge o the nose and the chin. Neutral-tone blushes can also be used to contour and sculpt the skin'. - James Boehmer, Director of Global Artistry.

2. 'For a complexion that is oilier with more pronounced pores, apply a matte powder blush to cheeks before a shimmer blush. It will allow the shimmer to glide on cheeks more smoothly and evenly, and allow colour to look fresh all day long'. - Uzo, International Make Up Stylist.

3. 'Smile and apply blush to the apples o the cheeks using a brush. For a dimensional, contoured look. apply a shimmer blush to the apples and a matte blush to the hollows of the cheeks'. - Shayna Shapiro, Lead Trainer.

Below are some examples of looks that you could recreate using this blush;
