A lot of you are well-versed with Nars' blush, "Orgasm". However, many of you may have heard of the baked blushes by Milani, the most popular being "Luminoso". Some bloggers and YouTube beauty gurus call Luminoso a dupe for Orgasm. Well, today, I'm going to give you all the full and true report regarding these two.
OK, let's begin with a swatch VS a swatch.
Luminoso is on the left, Orgasm is on the right.
Orgasm is $29.00 wherever Nars is sold. I picked mine up at Sephora. Luminoso is $6.99 wherever Miliani is sold. I picked mine up at K-Mart. This makes a price difference of $22.01 before tax.
Packaging wise, Nars is sleek and has a mirror inside. Milani has a mirror and a brush inside. Luminoso: .012 OZ Orgasm: 0.16 OZ
As you can see from the swatches, Luminoso has more coral-y hues while Orgasm features more pinkish hues. Luminoso has more of a sheen and sparkle while Orgasm is matte with sparkles. Luminoso has a smoother texture that Orgasm doesn't have, but then again it isn't chalky. Both last all day. If you are really in the market for trying the Nars blush, I'd wait for a Sephora or department store coupon/sale or even if you can get your hands on a sample size. Both last all day over a foundation. Defiantly try out the Milani blush if you're in the market for a new one.
All in all, this is not an exact dupe, but it is defiantly close. :)
