Sephora describes it as:
"What it is:
A chic cheek palette featuring four dazzling shades based on the bestselling Orgasm blush.What it does:
The gorgeous afterglow of classic Orgasm is reinvented in this quad that combines Orgasm blush plus vivid shades of pink and peach and a shimmering gold to create your own signature glow.This set contains:
-Peach Matte Blush
-Gold Highlighting Blush
-Pink Matte Blush
-Orgasm Blush (peachy pink with golden shimmer)"
Now from my experience with NARS I find that they make extremely lovely blushes and shadows, I have not had soo much experience with the lipsticks but as for the glosses, I just do not care for the waxy scent unless they have altered the formula since those years. With this palette I swiped each and every color on my cheeks mixing them in my own way. I always found that orgasm did nothing for me but I fear now that I was wrong.
- The Peach matte reminded me soo much of NARS Amour in appearance. I found that it was super soft and pigmented and applied very natural and not over the top and you could definately build the color.
- The Gold Highlighting shade puts me in the mind of NARS Albatross except Albatross is lighter in the pan but goes on gold as well but perhaps a touch lighter. This gold looks super opulent and blends very easily into whichever blush you use directly on the cheek.
- The Pink Matte shade is reminiscent of NARS Desire with it's matte and bright pink texture or even NARS Angelika but she has shimmer. I find this shade to be the one which sheers out more than the others so you can build such a bright color as it is still blendable and beautiful to create those barbie doll cheeks.
- Orgasm is one which I am guilty of underestimating although I find this to be a bright peach pink which shines alot more gold on the cheeks. I don't know if it was the store lighting or what but it was beautiful on me at home. Now I am starting to see why it is the best seller. I know some say Deep Throat is just as beautiful but I tried it and it had not any pigmentation on my skin's coloring. This would be amazing this summer dabbed lightly on the cheeks and also seemed to have a dual effect in highlighting the cheekbones as well.
