NARS Orgasm Lipgloss

I love this lipgloss. This is a coral-pink lipgloss with gold shimmer to it. It makes your lips look very glossy and paired with the NARS Orgasm Blush it is perfection. If you've been keeping up with my blog, you know that I love anything with gold in it and I had already known about the Orgasm Blush, so when I saw the lipgloss I got really excited.

The packaging looks just like every other NARS lipgloss and has a translucent case to show the color inside. The texture of the lipgloss is very smooth and not sticky at all. I love love love this product. Lipstick isn't even needed under it. The color is very pronounced and not sheer like most lipglosses. The gold sheen is wonderful to give your lips a nice sunkissed looked especially for the summertime. It looks wonderful in pictures and takes to the camera very well.

The only complaint I would have about this product is that the scent and taste aren't nice. It kind of smells medicinal and it's not pleasant when you accident taste it. It lasts a long time on the lips however and the scent tends to fade after a while. Reapplication is necessary after about an hour or so because it is a lipgloss and tends to slip around. The gold glitter in the lipgloss also bleeds onto the outside of the lips so when wiping off the lipgloss, be careful not to get it all over your mouth or else you'll have gold shimmer all over the place.

Overall, I love the color and will be repurchasing.

NARS Orgasm Blush

This Youtube makeup guru talks about the famous NARS Orgasm Blush. She gives a decent review of the product and I thought I'd share her thoughts here on Sephoraity.

NARS is a nice coral pink color with gold flecks in it. I love gold glitter and shimmer in everything so when I say this blush I immediately had to have it. When I swatched it at Sephora it came out really pigmented and a lot of the color transfered onto my finger, however when I opened the new blush at home and swatched it, it came out very sheer and light. I was confused at first and thought I had the wrong blush, but then I realized that the blush at the store had a lot of oil build up from so many fingers dipping into it.

After using the blush a couple of times, I realized that the Orgasm Blush was better when it was sheer with the gold flecks because my cheeks are already pretty pigmented so when I apply blush on top of it, it could look a little clownish. However, because the NARS Oragsm blush applied sheer with a slight flush of coraly-pink, I was able to get the pretty gold flecks on my cheeks to highlight as well as a slight pink tone to my cheeks. It didn't look too overdone and it was perfect. When I first tried to apply the blush, because it came out so sheer I kept patting it on until I realized I went overboard with it and it looked gross. NARS Orgasm is definitely better when applied sheer.

This product had no negative side effects on my skin which was good because I have really sensitive skin. It added a nice glow to it and made my skin look rather healthy after application. I love the color and the finish of the product and will be repurchasing this product again.
