note: Being a student, I haven’t tried this – I’m on a budget, people! (Also, I have a weakness for pricier foods. Not that I eat out a lot, but I’d pick up the $10 package of genoa salami before the $5 package of turkey breast that’s five times larger.)
Despite that I haven’t tried NARS‘ Orgasm blush, I still have a few opinions on this “Holy Grail” product. I think it would be great for make-up artists, as it’s known to be great on so many different types of skin, and they have to work with a fresh new face almost every day.

However, is it worth it for Jane Doe, wandering down the street? Some say it is, but I beg to differ. Why not spend an extra twenty minutes to find the perfect shade of blush that only goes well with your skin tone?

Here’s my logic: Let’s say it’s a seven (on a scale of one to ten, ten being awesome) on everyone. So, it’s a great shade for an artist or for a rich make-up newbie, or for someone who plans on sharing it with a room-mate/sister/mom/etc. However, you could probably get a blusher that’s a ten for the same price, if not two!

The verdict: Not worth the hype for the regular consumer, at this price!
