Hello! Happy year of the rabbit everyone! (0:3
I saw Melody and Bunny wearing bunny headgears on their blogs. Heck! Even Michelle Phan was wearing a bunny hat. :/ As my bunny headgear is currently gone missing I am going to greet everyone with this picture... (o:3
Moving on... Someone requested for a review of NARS blushes before. So while I was at Rustan's I picked up one of their blushes to try out. I have never been a fan of Orgasm. >o<" To me, it was a product that was overrated and I did not like how it blended on my skin although everyone claims that it's a universally flattering color. :/
I do own one NARS blush though which is the LE Cactus Flower. I also love that blush! :3

Well Hello Dust attracting box. This box will be forever be with the blush because I don't like
the rubber packaging of NARS. Even the box is a dirt magnet. What the?!?

Dirt magnet packaging. :/ It has a mirror but doesn't come with an applicator.
Notice how much dust it has on? I only took this out for the purpose of taking
pictures and lo and behold it has attracted dust LOL! xD

Product Description: Peace with shimmer
Picture FAIL - The colors above are more accurate. This one is too pink. :/
Swatch on bare skin
- On the pan this seems a shade lighter than Orgasm but it is actually very pigmented once applied on the skin. It is smooth, kind of creamy despite being a bit shimmery and easy to blend on the cheeks. :)
- Unlike Orgasm which has golden shimmer, the shimmer on Deep Throat is rather a bit more subtle and more wearable IMO.
- True to the description in their website this is a really pretty peach! :3
- The packaging is made of rubber and is a dust magnet and I really wouldn't take it out of the box because I am afraid that it will turn Gray within 1 week.
- I tried this on my sister, who is morena and it looked good on her too so I'll say that this is a more universally flattering color. :3
- The blush lasts up to 6-8 hours on my oily skin. :)
- I know someone will ask for the price. I never keep receipts. x) I get a headache when I see OR's ahahaha! But I think the blush costs around 1,350 or so. :3

Taken with flash photography. Please ignore my wrinkles and ginormous pores. >o<
The problem with a 14 megapix camera is that it will show even the pores all the imperfections.
