Best & Worst NARS Orgasm Collection (Summer 2019)
The new, NARS Orgasm Collection, might have been intended as the 20th anniversary celebration of cult product, Orgasm Blush, but it fell rather short of anything resembling a real celebration. I’d argue that the Endless Orgasm Palette was the “star” of the launch, and it was the worst of the collection and certainly on track to be on at least a few worst-of-2019 lists. When the product you’re celebrating is a blush, and you put out a palette full of products designed to be used on the cheeks (and eyes and lips), you’d think it would, at least, be a stellar cream blush but no.
The new Orgasm Lip Tint is decent but for many, not particularly memorable or so much better than a slew of other, pink-tinted glosses on the market. I think the fact that the Orgasm Liquid Highlighter wasn’t very practical to use as a standalone highlighter (like on cheekbones) is going to cut its potential audience down–it did work well on the body, where it was easier to stretch out a drop or two without worrying about precision or base products.

Not the most successful collection from NARS…..
What a DISASTEROUS anniversary collection. Good grief. One would think there would have been far closer attention to the quality and usability of the palette, for one thing.
I feel like the only thing I wanted from this collection was the Blush which seemed different to me a little more smooth and was a little more pink than the original and has a bit more glow than the original which is more peach and gold to me
I’m so glad I got to read reviews before I bought anything. I love anything orgasm for lips, I’m glad I bought originals. Plus had more $$ for game of thrones collection!!
Unpopular opinion – after swatching the palette in store I’m totally buying it. I don’t know, something about it really appeals to me and I can’t wait to test it out on my face to see if I like it as much in practice as swatched.
