NARS Blush in Madly Review – Glam Radar

by Fifi · April 20, 2015

My search for a nude blush (is there such thing as a nude blush, really?) brought me to NARS Madly. Even though it is described as seashell pink by NARS, in the pan it doesn’t look like it has any pink tone to it at all. I would rather describe it as a tawny color with warm brown undertone. It’s very unique; sort of like a blend between a blush and a bronzer but I can see how this might not be everyone’s cup of tea.

The shimmers in madly are very fine so they won’t be that noticeable on the cheeks. They just give that slight sheen effect; much like the finish of MAC Sheertone Shimmer blushes.

However, I find Madly slightly disappointing in pigmentation. It’s definitely not as pigmented as the other NARS blushes I own. I need at least four swipes in order for the color to show up on my cheeks. Perhaps this blush is meant to be subtle, though.

Here I wore Madly on the temple of my cheek and Milani bronzer to contour.
