The Best Blush..EVER.

 Like most women, I have used quite a few blushes in my time. Some left me looking like Bozo, even with the slightest, softest sweep of powder. Others just did not work with my skin color, texture, and/or tone.

The truth is most women are looking for a pretty, universally-flattering color that can be worn day to night, like most makeup products. We need versatility. We need something that complement our bone structure, our skin color, our skin tone, and our skin texture. We need a blush that makes us look alive, even when we're walking around with no sleep and a three shot espresso in our systems to try to get us through the day. We need a color that adds a healthy dose of color. Women need a blush that looks good at the office or at school, and looks good while on a date or out with the girls.

I have a few blushes that I like, but my ultimate favorite is NARS blush in Orgasm.



According to Sephora.com's description:

" Blush

What it is:
A soft, sheer pressed powder blush.

What it does:
NARS Blush offers a range of translucent, natural shades, each with a subtle pink for natural blush undertone, created to highlight the complexion.

What else you need to know:
Designed to be worn alone or layered together for more depth, NARS Blush provides a healthy glow to flatter any skintone.

-Orgasm Blush:
NARS Orgasm makes cheeks blush a perfect pinky-peach flush and subtly highlights with accents of golden shimmer. The perennially pleasing, universally flattering shade is again and again a makeup artist and beauty editor favorite."

NARS Orgasm Blush is the perfect blush, in my book anyway. Just a light sweep gives you a healthy dose a color, or you can layer it on if you are looking particularly pale and/or pasty. I have been using it for a few years now, and I don't ever tire of it. I will be buying NARS Super Orgasm soon, because I haven't tried it and I have been so thrilled with the original blush, and their other products!
