Hey all,
From now on, I will start new series on my blog where I will compare two products that are very similar and can be considered as dupes. I will be focusing on trying two products, one is from the high-end makeup and the other one as a drugstore makeup.
Today, I will compare two similar products (blushes) that I consider almost the same especially when applied on the apples of the cheeks. These two products, as shown above from the title's name, are NARS Orgasm and L'Oreal Accord Perfect 165 Rosy Cheeks.
My all time favorite is the NARS Orgasm blush and it's always a choice for me when I apply makeup. I use it almost on daily basis and I just love it so much. But, when I found out that I already have something very similar in my makeup collection and I compared them together, I was amazed how similar they are. Honestly, I still prefer the NARS blush but if you are searching for one that's less pricey and almost identical then you're in the right place. Below, I will compare both of them:

Honestly, I still prefer the NARS blush but if you are searching for one that's less pricey and almost identical then you're in the right place. Below, I will compare both of them:
Color:
NARS Orgasm has gold shimmer whereas L'Oreal Rosy Cheeks has silver shimmer. NARS Orgasm reflects more light than L'Oreal's one and that what you will see in the picture below. NARS Orgasm is more on the coral side but L'Oreal Rosy Cheeks is more true pink. When applied on the cheeks, they look very similar because it blends to your skin.
Pigmentation:
They both have very good pigmentation. They are very rich in color and pigmented.
Texture:
They both have very smooth almost creamy silky feeling. They are very soft on the skin and you don't need a lot on your brush. Very easy to blend them.
Longevity:
NARS last a little bit longer on the cheeks but there is no certainty as we always touch our face and makeup can be removed easily however, NARS Orgasm can stay and have a slight shimmer after about four hours of wear whereas L'Oreal has less shimmer and it's cooler so it fades away after three hours.
Packaging:
NARS's packaging is of course much better than L'Oreal's one because the L'Oreal is very fragile and can break easily and although it's small in size but it's kind of bulky however, NARS's is flatter and bigger but can sneak in any makeup bag!
Price:
In France, the price difference is almost half. NARS's retails for about 30 Euros where as L'Oreal's retails for less than 15 Euros.
Now, it's up to you to decide which one to get. For me, they are both very good blushes although I give my preference to NARS Orgasm but I still love both and will use both.
I hope you liked my comparison/ dupe post and inform me if you know another dupe for NARS Orgasm blush!
Love xoxo,
Maha
