Beauty By Josi: NARS Orgasm/Laguna Duo (Don't Be a Hater)...
So all right...I ain't gonna lie...I've been a NARS hater. Probably has to do with the fact that when I freelanced for LORAC they were in the same row as us at the Sephora so it was my job to steer customers away from them and towards my stuff....fun,fun,fun!
Another reason I was a hater was also probably due to the fact that Orgasm...(the infamous blush) was crammed down my throat on a daily basis whenever I would open a magazine...and the first time I tried it myself I wasn't that impressed. I have to admit as well...if EVERYONE loves something I tend to get suspicious. So with the exception of a using a few of NARS liners and shadows on special event clients who already had NARS in their personal makeup bags, I abstained...
Well fast forward to the MakeupShow 2008....Lianne picks me up at the airport...and as soon as we get in her car I proceed to raid her makeup bag (hey, if anyone gets it she does!) What do I see but this cute little duo...Orgasm blush and Laguna bronzer together...hmmmmm. So I give it a go....and AAAHHH...the sky opens up and the sun comes out and I am enveloped in light...(well maybe in my own mind)! This duo is perfect on everyone (Lianne and I both wore it all weekend that should tell you something!) and I can't believe I was a hater this long...sorry NARS!
Be Beautiful Y'all...

Hmm... I might have to give it a try myself... I too am always a little skeptical when everybody loves someTHING. Thanks!

I just bought this duo from Sephora and I'm totally in LOVE with it.
I thought the bronzer would be a bit dark, but it's really nice, even on my light skin!
And I was also skeptical of the whole Orgasm love by everyone. . . . I was like, uh huh, suuuure, how can a blush be THAT great?? But it really truly is!!!
I recommend this duo to pretty much everyone!
