I'm tempted to buy this as it gets rave reviews but when I see it, it looks really bright and sparkly. Anybody use it on here? Will I look like a sparkly aunt Sally if I use it? Any alternative suggestions? Thanks.

try deep throat, it's really nice for everyday, not sparkly at all

Try benefit Dallas. No hint of sparkle and very wearable.

Will definitely look at sleek. And deep throat (but don't tell hubby) Wink

I fell for the hype on Nars Orgasm and I think I've worn it about three times - too little girl sparkly, I just cannot get it to work. In theory it should look great- I'm very pale, but it just looks silly IMO. I use Clinique Blushing Blush in Bashful. V natural and amazing value - I've used it pretty much every day since I bought it in September 2013 and I think I've probably got at least another 2 months wear.

I have medium skintone and it didn't work for me. Too sparkly and in your face. I like Mac Springsheen which is similar but works better because no giant sparkles Grin

I've just discovered Seventeen stamp blushers- wonderful, I'm 43 and only just started wearing blush, it's fantastic.

Deep throat is alot more wearable I find. There are so many beautiful blushes at the moment, Aerin, charlotte tilbury and tom ford has gorgeous autumn ones coming out. Cant afford them at the moment hut they are divine

I'd love to try the NARS one but can't get to London for aaaaaages. I have Benetint, but can't work out best application and usually look like I have a fever, or red wine cheeks. Can anyone help?

I'm going to try that Sleek Rose Gold dupe. Apparently you can get it in Superdrug but it's frequently out of stock because it is a well know dupe for Nars Orgasm. But.....you can order from them direct, and there's 25% off all their products at the mo.

I wear orgasm on and off but I find that it isn't a one-colour which suits all type of blush, as it is often marketed. I am pale and I dont find it overly sparkly ... but it just looks muddy on me. I'm better with peachier toned blushers. A good every day one that I use is Dolce & Gabbana - they do a few subtle colours

Well. I was going to try the sleek one but three super drugs later and they're all sold out. I was having a bad day yesterday and splurged on the door rosy glow. So far I love it. More clout than my usual dandelion but not to bright. Happy girl

Try sleek's Rose Gold. I'm fair, and it's undetectable from Nars.
