NARS Orgasm Blusher

This was my second NARS product that I purchased and the Orgasm collection is my upmost favourite by far!

Described by NARS as
- Soft powder formulated with transparent pigments
- Use for a sheer healthy glow
- Or layer up for a deeper colour

Orgasm is described as 'Peachy pink with shimmer'.

It is a light pink with a hint of coral shade, flecked with lots of golden glitter. Fortunately the golden sparkles don't leave you looking like a glitter ball but offer a lovely sheen. This blusher has really lived up to the hype for me with both the quality and colour being worth the price. I can see this lasting me ages as you don't need a lot of product and think it will be perfect for spring/summer make up.

I was very cautious to purchase any blushes as I am very fair and don't like to look bright pink etc but this was very gentle on my skin and gave me a lovely glow - has definitely won me over and will be expanding my NARS collection asap!

What products do you use or recommend?

NARS Super Orgasm Illuminator

I wondered into House of Fraser in Milton Keynes and headed straight for the NARS beauty counter and hovered around for a beauty consultant to head my way! I asked about the Illuminator as a lot of my friends have ordered me to purchase one!

She tested all four colours on my skin and I explained I would like a bit of warmth to my skin so I asked for the 'Super Orgasm' ...I couldn't quite believe what I was asking this woman and I almost whispered the name to her! I bought it for £21.50 for it and I'm tempted to buy the whole collection!

The Illuminators (also available in Copacabana, Laguna, Orgasm, and Super Orgasm) are multifunctional and meant to work as a blush, bronzer, or highlighter (depending on the colour you buy).

The first thing I realised after using these was just how much shimmer they contain. It’s A LOT. Even a tiny dot, like the size of a pea, is enough to noticeably illuminate my cheeks, the bridge of my nose, my temples, chin AND my shoulders. And the fluid is really easy to blend into the skin, too, taking mere seconds to apply.

What it is:
A multifunctional face product that gives skin a refreshed luminosity.

What it does:
This light-reflecting liquid glides on to refresh and enhance the complexion, creating a shimmering incandescence. Wear it alone, or pair it with makeup to transform your skin from ordinary to extraordinary.

Do you use this Illuminator or you use something different?

Let me know - would love to hear from you!
