I was a bit disappointed with this color on me. It's a bright, medium-deep purplish pink; almost mauve, but too bright and not muted enough. I can see the fuschia in it, but the best best description ...Read more

Editing to add: over the last year I've been getting cystic acne on my cheeks. Finally I realized it was exactly where I apply my blush. I've stopped using my NARS Mata Hari blush for 2 months, and th...Read more

I like this, it's very pigmented and stays put. I will agree with other reviews that you need an extremely light hand to put it on. I just feel that for the price there are plenty cheaper that do th...Read more

If every NARS blush had the same formulation as Mata Hari, I would most likely have them all. Unfortunately a couple of their shimmery blushes have been streaky and blotchy on my face, which for +$20 ...Read more

It's a beautiful blush, the application is amazing, but like a few other reviewers, this color changes on me. I don't care for shimmer at all, so I tried this one since it's one of the few cool color...Read more

This blush is gorgeous. It looks crazy bright in the pan, and it actually is. Apply with a light hand! For lighter skin you would have to be quite careful. For this reason though, it lasts forever. ...Read more

This blush is really pigmented and comes in a pretty unique color. I have to say I like angelika and orgasm a bit better, but this one is nice as well. Too much and it can look a bit clown ish.

Close call between this and orgasm. This is a bit more pigmented, I love it just as much!

Incredibly intimidating in the pan, and demanding of a light hand, but Mata Hari, not Orgasm, duplicates the natural high flush of my very pale, cool/neutral skin.

I love Nars blushes! I recently got Mata Hari to add to my collection of Nars blushes. It is a matte, rosy pink color. It's a little darker than Desire, Gaiety, and Angelika, but really pretty none th...Read more

When I first saw this blush in the pan, I thought the color would be way too intense and bright for me, as I usually gravitate towards more peachy/pale pink/coral blushes. However, when applied with ...Read more

I bumped into this blush by accident in my local Sephora. I debated purchasing it because it looked like it had a potential to be chalky and a weird tone on my dark skin. Glad I took a chance because ...Read more

This is gorgeous. Mata Hari is not a color I would typically go for. Funny how I'm always drawn to peachy, coral colors (Deep Throat is a favorite) yet, when a MUA selects a blush for me, it's always ...Read more
