Many beauty products come and go, especially now in the fast paced world of beauty. One product that has really withstood the test of time is the iconic NARS Orgasm blush. anyone (really, anyone) who has ever set foot in a Sephora, and their eyes will light up at the mention of a little blush called Orgasm.This peachy pink shade with a hint of golden shimmer has been around for 20 years. the iconic, gold-flecked, peachy-pink shade was dreamed up by François Nars in 1999. That means that this year marks two decades of it enjoying bona fide icon status.
“I actually first created the name, then the shade — I wanted something shocking,” François Nars says, adding that its level of success is one that he could have never anticipated. However, name aside, there’s no denying that the magic behind the blush has to do with the fact that it actually looks incredible on virtually every skin tone. “The pink color and subtle shimmer gives you a natural flush,” he explains. “I designed Orgasm Blush the same way I design all my colors — it just so happened that Nars fans fell in love.”
