Swatches+Pics of my NARS blush collection

Is there really a need for a review on NARS blushes? ;) In short, they are very pigmented and smooth and they usually lasts for 6-8 hours even with my oily skin. 

**Quick note: Sex Appeal swatches barely show up and can appear chalky. On the skin, it is just as pigmented and smooth as the other NARS blushes.

Amour- Peachy pink

Deep Throat- Peach with golden shimmer

Douceur- Soft pink brown

Mata Hari- Rose petal pink

Oasis- Sparkling pink champagne

Sex Appeal- Soft peach


L to R: Amour, Deep Throat, Douceur

L to R: Mata Hari, Oasis, Sex Appeal


(Super Orgasm looks a lot more orange in this picture than it actually is)

Comparison pics
L: Rock and Republic Tease R: NARS Mata Hari

L: NARS Mata Hari R: Tarte Amazonian Clay Amused

L to R: Rock and Republic Tease, NARS Mata Hari, Tarte Amused. Mata Hari is a much more rosier pink than the other two. Tease is more lilac-y and Amused is more pink.

L: MAC Wonder Woman blush duo Mighty Aphrodite R: NARS Deep Throat

L: NARS Deep Throat R: Tarte Amazonian clay Glisten

L to R: MAC Mighty Aphrodite, NARS Deep Throat, Tarte Glisten. Deep throat is the least shimmery out of the three and is equally pink and peach. Mighty Aphrodite is the least pigmented, and has the most peach tone. Glisten is very shimmery and is the most pink of the three.

L: Tarte Amazonian Clay Exposed R: NARS Douceur

 First swatch on the Right: Tarte Exposed. Swatch on the far Right: NARS Douceur. Douceur is much more of a pinky brown nude while Exposed is a rosey brown.

    1. The far left swatch is Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush in Dollface and the one next to it is Amused. I think that Amused can be similar to the Amazon Princess duo and also to Desire (I think Desire is much brighter though). Dollface is a much more baby pink so if that is what you are looking for, you should go for it!
