Afterglow Liquid Blush - Orgasm by NARS for Women - 0.23 oz Blush

This is a lavender-ish cool toned blush. I am my second bottle. I was skeptical at the shade the first time I bought it, but it really works for my cool undertones. More a liquid than a cream, with no shimmer. I dab it along my cheekbones, and on the apples of my cheeks, sometimes adding a few drops of an illuminating liquid product too, then hit my face with a spray on serum, then stipple it all in with a foundation brush. The serum isn’t really necessary, but when you get to my age, more moisture is better! Some liquid blushes are too strong, this one is not, but you can add more to build it up if you want more color, or put powder blush over top. I would say it is a sheer coverage, so it looks very natural, not heavy or dry at all - so I think good for mature skin.

I tend to use a cream/liquid blush on the typical day, natural look. I wear this blush with the lip balm of the same shade and I feel more beautiful because of it. This liquid blush is well pigmented, blends well and is natural looking too. I look dewy, not shiny. It’s not shimmery either, despite the golden flecks within the pigment. It’s the perfect flush for my fair skin, the name of the shade speaks for itself… well worth the investment. Oh! You can also layer this over a powder blush for added dimension and color, super versatile product.

when I opened the NARS Afterglow Liquid Blush, I took one look at the color on the wand and was thinking “ok, this is not what the powder version looks like”. I placed two dabs on either cheek and rubbed it in. Well, two dabs was way too much. The color is very concentrated so you do not need a lot. Then I took another practice run after I washed my face. It is a beautiful color, fresh and clean, it makes your skin look like you have natural color. I used some moisturizer on top. This is exactly what I was looking for regarding traveling. We are going to a very hot country and I did not want to take my Boom Stick or my Nars powder blush in Behave as then I would have to take a face brush as well.

This is my favorite blush. I used to use the pressed powder version but since I stopped using setting powder I've switched to liquid and love it. It's easy to blend and looks wonderful

Very light weight & easy to apply.

Such a beautiful blush.

The color is too pink for me. There were so many good reviews so I tried it but next time I will try a different color.

Nice color, i don’t really enjoy the smell but i can get past that.
