 Among the absolute BEST blushes out there--beautiful colors, blendability, durabilityMar 25, 2009
By Mir
Some of the colors look scary in the compact because they are so highly pigmented. Exhibit A, for example, is a bright clownish looking orange-red that surely has scared off many a gal. But for those who know how to use a blush brush properly (ie, high quality bristles, good construction, a judicious amount of pressure, good blending), these babies pay off. And I mean pay off not just in beautiful color, but in how long they last, because this quality and pigmentation means you don't need to use a lot. One of these can last you a long, long time, even with daily use.
I have Exhibit A, Torrid, Taos, Crazed, Luster, and Mata Hari, which covers a range of warm and cool tones. Exhibit A is my fave go to red blush. Using just a touch of my duo-fibre MAC brush on it (ie MAC 187 brush), this deposits a beautiful, face-brightening blush to the cheeks. Too much and you look like Bozo, so this does require restraint.
Mata Hari is a lovely, feminine, cool pink-rose tone that I, who have olive skin, can wear and look like I was out walking briskly. Those two are my fave ones from NARS as they are matte. The others have some shimmer and require even more care in application and go well with a shiny gloss on the lips.
Luster is more like a highlighting color for me (it's a goldeny-lustrous color on me). It's pretty much the color of my skin with shimmer, so I can put it on without a color payoff, but it gives a nice glow that I like for days when I look "tired". A perking up thing. Also nice for adding glow when going out at night/to a party. On a lighter person, it's probably a nice warmth on the cheeks, sort of like a subtle bronzer. Could probably highlight eyes, all over, too. It's versatile.
Crazed is a deep raspberry pink with shimmer (ie, a cooler color that has glowiness). Taos is like a somewhat warm deep rosed-up red. It's a color that will definitely suit darker tones, but can be used by fairer women with much restraint. Torrid is a gorgeous deep peachy sort of tone with shimmer. I'm wearing it today with Manhunt by NARS (lipstick) overlaid with Red Devil coral-red gloss by MAC. Torrid is not as deeply-intense as Crazed or Taos, but it's not a shy color either. Will give a nice payoff.
I'm med-dark olive toned (NC44 in MAC) and all those look fine on me. I'm ordering Gilda to add to the peachy colors in my blush collection (which right now includes two MAC peachy tones and one by Physician's Formula). With summer coming in, I'm looking for peachier/warmer tones.
These are expensive-ish, but these are top-notch, and it's no wonder makeup artists and celebrities love NARS blushes. (Note: I don't own the much-touted, much-beloved, nearly legendary Orgasm, though, which is more suited to ligther-than-me gals, but it really is pretty in the pan. I have heard good things about Super Orgasm colorwise, if you don't mind having chunks of glitter fall off your brush.)
UPDATE: I got my Gilda blush and it's lovely. A soft-textured, nicely-pigmented matte peach that will look fabulous with peachy-coral and more orangey glosses for Spring and summer, or even with nude glosses.

It truly is a great blush!!!Aug 02, 2007
By Lisa Lal
"Lisa"
I would be the last person to pick up a magazine and go by what they say would look good on me!! But I have to say this is a great blush on fair skin!
I have tried, Mac, Lancome, Stilla and Becca, tints, creams you name it but this is the blush that gets the compliments from strangers!!! It sometimes does have a little too much sparkle, but on the whole this is the blush you will come back to time after time! Don't waste money on others just buy this one!!!

 Not exactly universally flattering, but a nice blushDec 24, 2007
By R. Brown
I purchased this blush after buying in to the TONS of positive reviews I read online -- that this was a universally flattering shade that just made skin glow.
While it's a nice blush -- it lasted a long time and imparted great color on the brush and skin -- it was just a bit too brownish for me. I have very fair skin (as in hyper porcelain), but this would probably look beautiful on someone whose skin was darker.
Next time I'm able to see the Nars line in person again, I'd love to try a different hue that flattered my skin a little better.

Love it- even though I was skepticalOct 20, 2011
By MamaLoves
It took me a few years to finally buy this just because I wondered how much better it could possibly be than drugstore powder blushes. Well, it is better. It is the perfect color for my skin, just apply it lightly so you don't end up looking overdone. Just a slight flush and you'll look glowing. Not sparkly, just glowing. Plus, it lasts much longer than any drugstore blush I've used. It doesn't come with its own brush, just so you are aware- best to have a fluffy brush for application on your apples of your cheeks. Love it. Would rebuy it, but hopefully this one will last me a long time.

Really Good!Sep 13, 2011
By Saffron
I got Deep Throat! Better than Orgasm, in my opinion. Orgasm's a little more coral in tone, whereas Deep Throat gave one a very soft, natural pinkish blush. Made me look very nubile, and very much like a sweet young thing.
The blush is also lasting, but will wash off in the shower. Feels more premium than MAC though. Everything I want in a blush! :D
