If a blush’s name is Orgasm, it must be a big deal.
And it is! Just a swatch of it, and it will give you the big O. I am not exaggerating. It broke the industry as a sensational blush. The sheen is perfect, the pink just right amounts, and oh, the glowy flush!
But let us not forget, that it is generously expensive. But we all deserve the luster of a high-end blush without having to sell a kidney.
And that is where I come in with 7 Best NARS Orgasm blush dupes!
Original Product: NARS Orgasm Blush
- Tone: Cool Pink
- Finish: Shimmery
- Benefits: Glow-y; Lovely Flush
There are so many reasons to love this blush.
NARS really did a thing with this one- the pink may look intimidating but it is such a universally flattering shade. There is not one skin tone that can shy away from this pink deliciousness. It just goes perfectly on every face, with every look.
What is more, the hint of golden shimmer is what stuns the eyes of the beholder. Really, it is one of a kind.
However, there are products that do have similar effects as a blusher.
So if you can save some money, why not try?

01. Milani Color Harmony Blush Palette
- Shade: Pink Play
- Tone: Cool and Warm Pinks
- Finish: Satin
- Benefits: Glow-y Look; 4-in-1 Multi-Tasking
This one is a gorgeous and a super useful baby.
Besides the obvious look of it, of course. This blush incorporates 4 shades of pink for you to mix and match, or use separately. So you can swirl your brush around, or stick to one shade- you are the artist, so do whatever!
I think it is a good NARS Orgasm blush dupe because of the shade and the finish. Majority of the shades can be mixed together to get a similar look to the NARS blush. However, with this one, you get a more customized effect!
And I love how cheap it is!
02. Honest Beauty Lit Powder Blush
- Shade: Flirty
- Tone: Neutral Peachy Pink
- Finish: Satin; Pearlescent
- Benefits: Luminous Look; Pearl Infused
Honest Beauty is one of those drugstore brands that look very high-end.
Its minimalistic packaging and overall quality makes it feel very sophisticated. Like NARS Orgasm blush, this blush will give you the loveliest flush of color. It leaves a luminous finish, shimmering with golden flakes like Orgasm.
With just one swipe, you will be mesmerized. I personally love honest beauty and I can vouch for their quality. If you want, you can give it a try as it will not even cost you a lot.
03. Physicians Formula Happy Booster Glow & Mood Boosting Blush
- Shade: Rose
- Tone: Neutral Berry, Pinks & Nude
- Finish: Satin
- Benefits: Luminous & Healthy Glow; Plant Extracts
Of course, I know that it is a beauty to look at!
It is like Valentine’s Day explained in a blush. Putting aside the cuteness, as atrocious of an act that is, let us talk business. This blush is a mix of multiple shades to give you a more customized result.
This also means that besides being a NARS Orgasm blush dupe, this is a functional choice. And the finish is like the NARS one, but less shimmery. Which is good, as the lovely, luminous, healthy glow is to die for.
Get it, it is quite cheap!
04. Milani Baked Blush
- Shade: Dolce Pink
- Tone: Soft Pink
- Finish: Luminous
- Benefits: Glow-y Look; Lightweight & Blendable
You can tell that we love a good Milani blush in this house, can you not?
Firstly, Milani baked blushes are god sent. Really. The shade and the beautiful luminous finish- pair together to give you a similar look to the Orgasm blush by NARS. This formula, due to being baked, is amazingly lightweight and effortless.
Watch it seamlessly blend out to bring a beautiful color to your cheeks. I really enjoy using my Dolce Pink over Orgasm at times, to be honest. This is a good, everyday alternative. That too at such a good price!
05. COVERGIRL TruBlend Serving Sculpt Contour Palette
- Tone: Soft Pink with Golden Shifts & Shimmers
- Finish: Radiant & Shimmery
- Benefits: Luminous Look; Multi-Tasking
This is something that I reach quite often to!
The mixture of the middle and right shades honestly, is very, very similar to NARS Orgasm blush. It is very surprising how close it comes to Orgasm. I love how this can be used for multiple purposes, let me tell you how.
The left shade is great to add warmth and sculpt your face. The middle shade could be used as either a blush or highlighter. And the right shade makes a beautiful blush! I enjoy topping the right shade with the middle one!
You will love its luminous glow, and you get a palette basically, at a cheap price!
06. theBalm Hot Mama! Shadow/Blush
- Tone: Muted Cool Pink
- Finish: Radiant
- Benefits: Multi-Purpose
Who does not love a good blush that can also serve as an eyeshadow? I know I do!
theBalm is a great brand. It is more of a mid-tier brand, I would say, but the products are top-notch. In terms of this blush, it could be easily used instead of the NARS blush.
If you want the shimmery effect like NARS Orgasm blush, just go over it with some highlighter. But it has a beautiful sheen of its own, so I wear it without adding anything else!
It is sort of priced higher than the other dupes, but so worth it!
07. Benefit Cosmetics Sunny Golden Pink Box O’ Powder Blush
- Shade: GALifornia
- Tone: Bright Peachy Pink with Golden Shimmer
- Finish: Glow-y & Luminous
- Benefits: Lightweight Texture
I know. This one is not cheap.
But it is a high-end dupe, and trust me, it is a bit cheaper than NARS Orgasm blush. The golden shimmery layer on top of the peachy pink blush adds the extra oomph that you need! Put it on and you will forget all about NARS.
If we talk about the texture- it is lightweight and just blends out perfectly. You can build it up as you like or let be. You will be mostly surprised at how similar it is to Orgasm. No kidding.
I do believe that it is great value for money because you do get a lot of product. And this will last you for years!
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1# How Can I Use the NARS Orgasm Blush?
Ans: Super easily is how! Take a fluffy brush, swirl it in the blush. Tap off the excess and sweep it across your cheeks with a light hand. If you want more intensity, build it up as you like.
Since it has shimmer, you do not want it to look patchy or enhance texture. So take your time while blending!
Q2# What is the Shelf Life of My NARS Blush?
Ans: If you are wondering how long your NARS blush will last- it will last up to 2 to 3 years. But this heavily depends on how you store your blush. Keep it in a dry environment, out of direct sunlight.
If you store it properly, you can use the blush for years! That is, if you do not use it up already!
Q3# Are NARS Blushes Good?
Ans: Yes, they are! NARS produces some of the most magnificent blushes to ever exist. Not just powder, but their liquid and cream blushes are also worth the money. Depending on your taste, you can select from a wide range of shades.
Also the quality is really stunning!
Q4# How Can I Make my Blush Last Longer?
Ans: For powder blushes, after applying it, dab on your makeup sponge to set it. Then go on with your setting powder to set your whole face. This will also make your blush last longer.
For liquid or cream blushes, you can set them with a powder blush, or simply use the sponge technique. Follow it with setting spray. Translucent powders can also be used to set a blush and increase longevity.
Q5# Will NARS Blush Break me Out?
Ans: There is no reason in particular for NARS blushes to break you out. But if you have sensitive skin, be sure to check the list of ingredients.
Additionally, be careful and take your makeup off fully before going to bed. Even if you are just wearing a blush on your bare face, remove it with a good cleanser.
Conclusion
NARS blushes really are amazing- be it quality or shade range. Orgasm is a cult classic, no doubt. But the price is a hefty amount, so we need dupes!
