The Daily Dupe: NARS Orgasm

The newest addition to One Haute Mommy is the Daily Dupe, a post dedicated to saving beauty-a-holics, like myself, money without sacrificing quality. "Dupe" is short for duplicate and in the beauty world dupes are products that are very similar in appearance and almost always have a wallet-friendly price tag.

NARS blush in the shade orgasm is an icon in the beauty world. NARS Orgasm is well known for its ability to suit all skin tones and its satiny feel. Orgasm is described as a peachy pink with subtle gold shimmer. It lasts forever, can be worn with several different makeup looks, and is easy to travel with. The only drawback is the $29 price tag. Without further adieu I would like to introduce you to NYX Pinched, described as a coral pink with gold glitter.

 NYX Pinched is a very close dupe for NARS Orgasm.  The biggest difference is that NARS Orgasm is a bit more shimmery than NYX Pinched and Pinched is not as satiny as Orgasm.  Pinched is a bit  cooler than Orgasm, but if you add an extra coat, the shades are as close to identical as you can get and NYX Pinched will only set you back $4.99.

Basically it all comes down to whether or not you want to splurge for the iconic NARS nifty packaging and satiny feel or if you're willing to give that up for the $24 in savings and very subtle difference between the shades.
