Review: NARS Danmari All About Cheeks Palette

When this palette came out, I did not intend on purchasing it. At the time, I thought about all the blushes I already own and said to myself that I would walk away from it. My friend, on the other hand, really wanted it and said it was definitely worth it. I mean, each blush is approximately $30 if one were to get them individually. The palette comes with six of them that contain about a quarter less than the usual full size for $70. It was definitely worth it for someone who had the INTENTION of buying blushes, but I didn’t at the time.
When I went shopping with my friend at Sephora, it was out of stock. It wasn’t a surprise because she was hunting for them and everywhere seemed to be sold out. But then......out of nowhere...a Sephora employee rolls out a cart and stops in from of the NARS counter we were standing in front of and places some red boxes into the empty palette section. Immediately my friend asks “Is this-“ and she replies “yes, it is” and my friend quickly takes one. I was so happy for her and she tells me I should get one too. I don’t remember exactly, but I remembered that my day was pretty bad up until that moment. I looked at the palette tester and swatched it more to see if this was worth the splurge. After thinking about it for 10-15 minutes, I decided to get itJ. Now that I think about it, I am very glad I purchased it!
Moving on to the actual product LOL.

-From left to right: Casino, Super Orgasm, Sin
I really love it! As I mentioned before, it is definitely worth it. The packaging is very sleek and professional looking! The quality of the blushes is really great and I use every shade in the palette. Here is a little summary of the blush shades! Starting from the top row going left to right.
Hungry Heart Duo (I)- A beautiful highlight shade that is very shimmery. It is similar to the Too Faced Candlelight Highlighter.
Orgasm- A pretty and shimmery peachy pink shade
Desire- A bright pink shade that is very similar to the Japanese brand Candydoll’s cheek color in Strawberry Pink
Casino- a typical/neutral bronzer that would work well on any skintone
Super Orgasm- Similar to Orgasm, but with huge shimmers and is more pink
Sin- a pretty mauve color
PROS
J all blush shades are usable
J good value
J great packaging
CONS
L Some may think that the Orgasm and Super Orgasm shades are very similar and is unnecessary to have both in the palette
OVERALL
I love this palette! I’ve been using this every day! It is a 4.5/5J!
WOULD I REPURCHASE/PURCHASE FULL SIZE/PURCHASE MORE?
I don’t think it is necessary for me to repurchase or purchase more of this blush palette.
