So I am ready to dig into the famous NARS BLUSH world. The questions is, which one???

Some that looks good on the web site are: Angelika, Matar Hari, Desire, Orgasm, and Torid.

Would you PLEASE help me pick one? I am Chinese with black hair/eyes and NC30/C3 skin! Thanks!!!

UPDATE Oct 4:

I am attaching pictures of all the blushes I own currently. My hope is that with your expert eyes, you can help me pick a NARS blush that's unique from what I already have, and that will look great for my tone. Thanks again!!!!

Unfortunately, you won't just settle for one after the first purchase.

I like Torrid, Angelika, Madly, and Sin.

Laguna bronzer would look great on you as well.

I am asian, with black hair, NC20.

I bought the sephora Orgasm/Laguna duo. I LOVE IT! It's great when I can't decide what to use cause it looks great with virtually anything.

i have angelika and it's very similar to dollymix which i think you mentioned you have...madly IS pretty but it looks similar to a blush that you own...

Torrid might be nice...it's very different from the colours you already own, and would be great for the fall. i would test that out on your skin to make sure it doesn't come out too orangey but it should look good on you with your yellow undertones.

Orgasm comes off pretty light on asian skin i've heard so you might want to pass on that...

Mata Hari looks pretty too but it seems similar to what you already own.

How about sertao? it's very pretty as a highlighter...check out snowkei she uses sertao & madly in this tutorial and shows very well what the colours would look like: http://www.specktra.net/showthread.p...s+sertao+madly

hope that helps...good luck~!

I purchased Sin and am very excited! I also love Torrid, but think sin will serve better for the fall/winter season..... I sure hope the quality lives up to its reputation!

Thanks everyone!

I wear Nars' Santa Fe foundation (Asian, don't know what I am in MAC anymore). I wear Mata Hari, Outlaw, and Lovejoy a lot. If you like, I could swatch for you

Add Lovejoy to the list!!!

It looks like the new blush in Luster will be a real hit so watch out for that one coming out in the next few weeks!
 
I have Orgasm, Torrid, Sin, Desire, Deep Throat, Luster, Mata Hari, Outlaw, and Lovejoy. These blushes are so addicting. I think Desire would look really good on you. It gives a very youthful look. ;D I reach for Sin and Orgasm alot when I had black hair and it looks great on me. Ever since I dyed my hair blond-ish I think Torrid and Lovejoy matched me better.

I would go with Desire for you since you seem to have blushes similar to the others. Do you live in the US? You can go to Sephora and try them all out and decide which one you like the best. Hehe. ^^
