NARS - Blush - Behave - 4.8g

I received this NARS blush in the shade Dominate from Bzzagent absolutely free for my honest review. I have been getting products from bzzagent now for about 5 years and I love receiving products just like Influenster to review them. I love the brand NARS and all of their makeup. I have never tried this shade before but I am very happy that I was able to try this out for free. Even though it is a very small product there is a ton of actual product in the container. I really don’t like to use blush at all and I feel when people tend to over do their blush it makes them all look like a clown and just plain ridiculous. However I do use a very tiny bit of this blush to put the slightest color on top of my bronzer and I do like the color that it gives off. I am very ... MoreI received this NARS blush in the shade Dominate from Bzzagent absolutely free for my honest review.

I have been wanting to purchase this blush for a long time. Ever since I have gotten a few of the samples of it in my Ulta.com orders. But the price has always stopped me. I finally bit the bullet and purchased it during the 20% off sale and I was so happy that I did! It is a very small compact, but it is sturdy and travels well. With this blush a little goes a long way and you do not have to use much to achieve a very natural beautiful look. I recently purchased Benefit's " Cheek Parade" palette, and I love it but it also was very expensive but worth the price because you get 5 full size products. But I wish I had purchased this first because I never would have purchased that pallet had I purchased the Nars blush first! I am considering returning the cheek parade ... MoreI have been wanting to purchase this blush for a long time. Ever since I have gotten a few of the samples of it in my Ulta.com orders.

It is well worth the money because it is such a beautiful blush! I highly recommend it.

A beautiful shade for fair to light skin tones

I received Nars Blush in shade ‘Behave’. I have here a deluxe size which is 1.2g, but the full size is 4.8g. The deluxe size is perfect for travel or for on the go, in my experience.Firstly, I love Nars as a brand and Nars blushers specifically have a cult following, and for good reason. They really set the standard when it comes to blushers in the beauty world. Their quality has set the bar for blushers that have followed thereafter, trying to imitate them in the best way possible. They are known to have a seamless quality, be super-fine with great pigment and best of all - made for all skin types. I have used Nars blushers for these very same reasons and own a few in my makeup collection.Onto my first impressions of this beautiful and unique shade named ... MoreI received Nars Blush in shade ‘Behave’.

I have used Nars blushers for these very same reasons and own a few in my makeup collection.Onto my first impressions of this beautiful and unique shade named ‘Behave.’ The shade is quite unique. I would describe it as a pale, cool toned mauve pink. It has a lovely texture and consistency, which I noticed on my first swipe. It is super-fine and feels weightless when on the skin. I dislike blushers that feel heavy or cloying. This blush feels sheer and when on the skin, it doesn’t disrupt my foundation underneath. The signature Nars quality is noticeable straightaway and I love it.The overall finish of this blush is matte which is something I actually prefer. In my experience, matte blushers are most versatile for both day time and night time.Unfortunately and I wish this wasn’t the case, on my medium olive skin tone the colour is very subtle and nearly nonexistent no matter how much I try to build it up. I think this would be far better suited to those with a fair and light skin tone - for true payoff and maximum effectiveness of colour. I really love the colour and I can imagine it looking stunning on the skin tone it was made for.I will always love and appreciate the superior Nars quality and really recommend this product for those that have a very fair to light skin tone and are looking to find a blush that will give them a healthy, natural-looking, seamless flush from within. Nars blushers continue to be the best blushers out there.

Excellent color. I will buy the product again and recommend

NARS always makes great products but this is exactly the color I was looking for I use it every day and love it.NARS Blush Orgasm blush is exactly peachy pink with a little shimmer, making my face more youthful and bright. The powder is smooth, has high adhesion and is "buildable" (can be applied in many layers without worrying about cakey). In particular, NARS - Orgasm powder stays on all day long without fading, this pink red color is very beautiful. It emits a gentle glow, giving subtle color to the cheek area with a hint of natural blush. It doesn't promise to create a perfect O, but it will go a long way in accentuating your cheeks.With 3 factors: easy to combine colors, good adhesion and does not cause thick skin, this is truly a necessary product for every ... MoreNARS always makes great products but this is exactly the color I was looking for I use it every day and love it.NARS Blush Orgasm blush is exactly peachy pink with a little shimmer, making my face more youthful and bright.

Improved forumla

Nars Community were kind enough to gift me a Mini Orgasm Blush to test and review.They sent me the new formulation.This blush is made to imitate your natural flush during those heated moments. The pink is a really natural colour for me on my pale skin but they do Orgasm edge shade that's a bit darker too if that sounds more you.What really makes this blush other level is the gorgeous gold shimmer. See how it catches the light!So, what's changed in the new formula? Well it's now Talc-free, and NARS claim up to 16-hour wear and a weightless feel.What do I think of the new forumla? The Gold is Golding! I have one of the old version of this blush in a super mini size and the gold is not nearly as goddess-level as this one.

I can imagine how gorgeous this would look at golden hour or catching the light on a night out.The formula definitely feels weightless and I'm impressed by its longetivity. It was still doing its thing when I removed it at the end of the day.This is definitely going in my "core makeup" bag.

Makes me look super young

I love blush and feel that it makes me look younger, so I was excited to review this Nars product. I've heard of the collection before but never used it. I tried the Orgasm Edge color, which is a "matte peachy pink" per the website description. I would say it's perfect for people with light neutral complexion that leans to the warmer tones.Cons: It does not come with a blush brush, but luckily I had a fluffy one that works perfectly with this pressed powder.Pros: The box says that the compact is refillable. It has a small mirror built in. The compact itself is easy to open even with long or very short nails. It feels silky and easy to blend on my face. It also lasts up to 16 hours, which is important because I tend to sweat throughout the day in this tropical ... MoreI love blush and feel that it makes me look younger, so I was excited to review this Nars product.

This is a great blush if you want a natural look and don't want to look like you're wearing a face full of makeup. With matte blushes, it's important to get the right shade for your skin tone. I feel that sparkly powders allow you to play with color a little more since it looks like makeup, anyway.Finally, it's small enough so that it fits in a small handbag, but you'll need to bring your brush along. I hope this will last me a long time, and it looks like a little bit goes a long way.Overall, it's probably the best blush I've tried. I'll try to get a re-fill pack, but so far it's looking sold out.

The packages breaks instantly and gets sticky.

I have many colour of this blush and all of them are broken after a couple of usage. The quality and the pigmentation of the blush is good but it is a terrible packaging and is impossible to use. All of them got sticky after a while and when I complained about this to a store manager I was talked down. They said they never heard any of these complaints before, Idk if they live in a cave because if you make a quick search on a search engine you'll see plenty of people advising what to do for sticky Nars packages.As a matter of fact I do not recommend any of Nars products anymore. I have been buying Nars makeup products religiously for my whole adult life and all of them end up being a disappointment.

If you contact the Customer Service about it, it always ends up being a waste of time. So for me now Nars = waste of time & waste of money. I am not even going to the store if I have any complaints or dissatisfaction as they always have a very arrogant, dismissive and impolite attitude.

formula issues

Its a beautiful new color formula but the powder cracks and breaks off very easily in the pan especially around the corners. I was so excited to receive them, I bought 3 but once they arrived I noticed there were brush marks and finger prints already on 2 of the products as if someone had already used it. Also none of them had the plastic protector on top of the powder either so maybe that could have been why te powder is cracking because of damage in shipping? I called customer service and sent them photos, spent an hour discussing it but they weren't helpful at all and said that they couldn't see any "damage" in the photos and that because the blushes came from their warehouse, that they won't have plastic protectors on them which makes NO sense at all..don't all ... MoreIts a beautiful new color formula but the powder cracks and breaks off very easily in the pan especially around the corners.

So ridiculous and unsanitary that products arent checked before shipping it. I also saw on Reddit that this seems to be an ongoing problem Disappointed that I didn't get refunded. I most likely will not be purchasing from Nars again.

still a great staple!

I have the original Nars shade Org*** blush and received the new formulation in exchange for my review. Full disclosure, they didn't inform me of whether I got the shimmer or matte formula and I cannot find any information to indicate this (maybe it was on the box I threw out), but my best guess is that this is the shimmer formula.I like the original formula-the shade is very light, but I have redness in my skin and prefer a light blush that enhances my cheek bones but does not overly highlight the redness. Nars original formula does that well. When I received the new formulation, I noticed two things:1. Different packaging: The case is now square, refillable, and the pan is smaller and deeper than the original.2.

Different packaging: The case is now square, refillable, and the pan is smaller and deeper than the original.2. Different look: The new Org*** formulation (on the left in the photo) appears lighter in the pan. I could see a slight shimmer to it in the pan (more so than my original, thus why I assume it is the shimmer formula), though it was subtle.I applied one to my left cheek and one to my right cheek. The new formulation does, in fact, have more shimmer to it on application. This works for me, because it further downplays the redness in my skin and hides imperfections. I did feel that the new formulation blended better. Sometimes the old formulation was hard to distribute, and I don't want to feel like I'm tugging at my skin. The new formulation should last 16 hours, but I never wear makeup for that long and can't speak to this. I do know that both sides stayed put all day.Conclusion: Exact same shade, new formulation feels easier to blend, slightly more shimmer to it on application but still nothing too obvious-fine for any occasion. Long lasting up to about 12 hours from my experience, but it could be longer.
