Cheekys

I love blush, and I knew I wanted to invest in NARS. I did not, however, wanted to spend a ton of money, because although I love blush, I love other things more. WOW, I used the word love a lot. At the Sephora friends and family sale, I decided to invest in a NARS blush palette. The reason that I wanted the blush palette rather than buying individual blushes is because the palette came with 4 blushes, 1 highlighter, and 1 bronzer. What I did not like after a couple of months is that they included ORGASM, and SUPER ORGASM, which is almost identical in shade, except super orgasm is more sparkly. I felt cheated because I wanted to try more colors. I heard DEEP THROAT was nice - maybe they should have included that. I was very impressed by the more purple color - SIN. It gives my cheeks a nice purple, with gold and pink, and it's just gorgeous. I was scared by CASINO, the cotton candy pink blush, but it's nice on the cheeks. My next only complaint is that the colors are not as pigmented as I hoped it would be. I have to do a couple of swipes of SIN to get a nice color on my cheeks, as with ORGASM. CASINO is too pigmented and I have to use a light hand when applying, and SUPER ORGASM was just too glittery. Overall I liked the palette because it allowed me to try 4 different blushes for the price of 2 full size, which was a plus. If you already own a couple of NARS blushes, I do not think it is worth it to buy this palette.
