What the gurus are saying

Gurus are largely divided on whether this iconic blush deserves its legendary status. Dr Dray is an enthusiastic long-term devotee who finds it universally flattering across skin tones and regularly gets compliments wearing it. Others praise its classic beauty and golden glow, though some feel it has become so ubiquitous that it no longer stands out. A recurring concern is that it can clog pores, and one reviewer suggested it may be time to move past it after years of use.

"This blush is famous for a reason. It's got that golden glow underneath the pink and it's so healthy looking. It's really beautiful. Some things are classics for a reason, and some things stand the test of time for a reason. This included."

"I have been a long-standing fan of the Nars Orgasm blush like long before I was on YouTube. I discovered this blush and it's classic from them in my opinion. It looks good on everyone. It's a nice pink, and I get compliments on it whenever I wear it. Together with their Afterglow lip balm in the shade orgasm, they are a perfect pairing and very flattering on a wide array of skin tones. This is a blush that goes over well and it's just so beautiful and I love it."
