Poll posted by BR Natalie.
Nars blush promises a "natural, healthy-looking color that immediately enlivens the complexion. A light application of even the highest-intensity hues delivers a natural-looking flush."
This Beauty Poll might seem a bit, erm, silly shall we say. After all the featured product is a blusher, so why on earth are we asking if a product can make you blush?
Well Nars are somewhat infamous for their risque shade names - the particular shade of blush we'll be trialing is Orgasm. Which is actually pretty tame when you look at the other shades!
We can't help but wonder if the name of this product has helped elivate it's status as the go-to blusher for makeup artists and celebrities. After all, sex sells. This particular crew member, in her neverending search for the perfect nude lip gloss, discovered one amazing lip gloss called "Sexy Mother Pucker". And I must admit - part of the fun of wearing it is that confidence that comes by knowing you're being just a little bit naughty.
Beauty Review is no stranger to slightly rude and funny and punny names - we were the ones who introduced New Zealand to Bootie Babe Nail Polish
So how does a name shape your response to a product? Are you more or less inclined to buy a product with a name you're not going to want to say in front of your Dad? Do you think companies like Nars are on the money by using controversial names, or are they missing the mark?
No the name doesn't bother me. I think it's funny! I love all NARS blushes and how they are named! I have NARS angelika and super orgasm but I've heard that orgasm is much better so I would love to try it and see for myself! I've been wanting to test this out for so long now!
