Meet NARS Torrid- the latest addition to my blush collection.
You hear a lot about Orgasm, Penny Lane, Deep Throat, Luster, Gina... but I was very unfamiliar with this particular shade and I quite randomly just ordered it online on ASOS when they were having one of the 25% off for students things.
NARS describes this as being a 'warm coral with golden shimmer'- so think along the lines of Benefit Coralista, but with less of a shimmery highlight effect and slightly more coral (if that is possible).
Like all of the shimmery NARS blushes, this has a beautiful golden sheen but I find it is less noticeable than say, Luster.
I think this is another NARS blush that would suit most skin tones, in particular very pale skin (like mine) and I think it would look really stunning of much darker skin.
I don't want to go into too much detail about the quality of NARS blushes because I just don't think I need to- it is no secret I absolutely love the formula of NARS blushes as well as the amazing colour range. I haven't tried any other blushes that I like as much (yet!)
ALERT!
Before you look at the pictures below, I want to warn you I have been having very bad skin at the moment- hence the heavy yellow foundation and discoloured patches!
Has anyone got any recommendations of other blushes I might like? (Not that I need anymore...)
Its a beautiful blush and looks lovely on you. My newest Nars blush is Amour, very purdy:) x

DeleteI´m definitely getting this for Spring. Thanks for the info! I´ve got Coralista but I find it a bit too much, this looks a bit fair-skin friendly.
