The color: 0rga5m

Said to be the universal color that will work on pretty much everyone but the price drives me away...

Anyone have this not work for them?

I love this color and I am not a young person. Look online for their sales, which is what I did during the summer.

Default Worth it

I have done many faces and I have to say that it does work on about 90% of people depending on the look you want. Think of the prise in terms of how much you will wear it ( always for me, I buy 3 gloss/blush and now nail polish a year) You can also think of the fact that you won't need all the other lip products so it saves money.

I love it! It's been one of my favorite shades for years.

I've even found mineral makeup version. It's called Verve and it's a perfect clone.

I've been using it for 3 years....and it's the best blush I've ever used. Sure hope they keep it around!

I have been using the Nars for a few years and I love it. It lasts for a long time so I am not too concerned with the price. I am not young, either, and it looks good on my skin as well. It's just the right shade no matter if it's for daytime or evening. They have a new shade out for the holidays...it's a shimmering version. At my age I don't need to shimmer. But, it's very pretty!

It just seems every time I see a magazine or celeb photo spread when I am in love with the blush its that NARS -o!

Good to know on the glitter issue too. I DO NOT want to look like I am running around playing Bobby Trendy.

Ok, have to confess that I've never heard of this Nars. I read this thread because I have a problem trying to find a good blush color (I'm fair but seems I need a more brown tone blush to look natural) - after several hrs. (and I have oily skin) blush seems to turn orange and darker

You might want to try a foundation primer first. It will make all your make-up keep its original color. I know what you mean though. I think I am FINALLY growing out of oil pool face-town and I always had to redo my face in the middle of the day if I didn't do the whole nine yards with primer etc.
The mineral blushes I have tried never turn color but need to be reapplied.
(if you want to try something cheaper first)

At least grab some blotting papers. They are the best for the T-zone in the middle of the day. I like the rice powder type ones.
