NARS Foreplay Blush Cheek Palette Swatches & Review

July 16, 2012

This Summer NARS introduces a new blush palette created exclusively for Sephora.  The NARS Foreplay Blush Palette includes four shades, which, of course, includes the ever-popular Orgasm Blush.  What’s Foreplay without Orgasm?!  I had to… sorry.  LOL

What the Sephora website has to say about Foreplay:

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)

Foreplay is the perfect quartet of cheek colors.  Centered around the cult-classic Orgasm Blush, all of the shades work well together and can be layered and blended into perfection.

NARS blushes are among the best on the market and for good reason.  The formula of the blushes is soft and extremely high-quality.  All of the shades have great pigment and are easy to blend together.  With the more vibrant matte shades, I do suggest applying lightly and then building up the color to your liking.  It’s much easier to add more than take away too much.

As usual with NARS‘ powder products, the cheek palette is housed in a sleek black case and includes a mirror.

Worn below, I used the Peach Matte Blush to contour, Orgasm on the apples of the cheeks and blended, then I dusted on a bit of the Gold Highlighting Blush to highlight the cheekbones.

For more information, please see the Official Press Release.

The NARS Foreplay Blush Palette retails for $49.00 and can be purchased at Sephora.  It is slated to become available August 1, but I was already able to order mine online!  This item is Limited Edition.

    I have the Danmari… Hmm… do I really need this? 🙂 I know I will justify it somehow!

      I got the Danmari as well, and technically I guess you wouldn’t…. BUT this one is slightly different and more portable than the larger Danmari… and the new shades are TDF. #justified lol

    I will have to get this. But, I have a ton of Orgasm knock-offs. So, $50 will be an investment, to say the least.

    […] Blush ($29.00) is a satin pinky peach.  Immediately it reminded me of Orgasm without the sparkle. This is the perfect, natural cheek flush that I’m going for.  Aptly […]
