I follow the technique used by the MUA in the video on this product's page on Sephora. As usual, with the appropriate amount of product, apply to apples of cheeks, then blend up the cheekbones. To finish, blend the remaining pigment up to the area above the ends of the brows for a natural full face glow.
Their most popular shade is rightfully so because it is seriously universally flattering: it really will look lovely on every skin tone. I use shade Madly when I'm going for a more natural look.
Another reason this will always be the best blush around is because of how long the pots last. Basically, I'm embarrassed to say how long I've had pots last! Yes. They are expensive. But you are definitely getting your money's worth!
Orgasm is a nice blush that gives a nice peachy pink color. It has has gold sparkles in it, however on me it does not show that way. The only thing I don't like about this is that after a fair amount of uses it becomes weird and crusty over the top and even with scraping the top layer off of it it still goes back to being crusty on the top... I will update with a picture later... I'm not sure how to fix this issue with it. It's like a layer of film or something on top and the blush just doesn't work the same like when i first got it.

I also think it's great that several of my friends use this blush, and we all have fairly different coloring. I am fascinated that one blush color works so well for so many of us!
I recommend this blush, and I'll repurchase if I ever hit pan (after a year, it's still going strong!).
PS: Typing the name of the color keeps getting me an error message that I am violating the website terms of service, so now I like the name even more!
The product is so creamy and smooth. Application is nearly flawless with any type of brush- I kid you not. There is a lot of shimmer and glitter in this so I usually pair this will a moderate highlighter so I am not a walking donut.
