Wow. I'm so out of the loop - I had no idea that this was discontinued. But good news I've found a pretty close - not close enough to call a dupe - but close enough to mention on here blush. For...

I was lucky to pick this up from the NARS website(available for a limited time only), as this is discontinued, I love using this for a no make-up, make-up look. On me this is a slight rosy brown...

I got this from NARS website, it's very dark brown matte blush. I haven't used it as blush since I'm pale during winter but it's great for contouring!

I like this blush a lot, pretty matte (no shimmer) brown color with a hint of peach. since it is matte then it is perfect for contouring the face. When applied lightly on my NC37 skin tone it gives...

I love this blush. Very natural rosy brown, not orange. Sadly discontinued, but I'm sure mine will last the rest of my life. For a similar shade, try BB Clay.

I abobsolutely love this blush. I was using Bobbi Brown Brown Berry but thought it looked too bright. Ninotchka looks completely natural, is a pretty color, and really accents my cheekbones ...

I love this blush!! I am so disappointed NARS does not carry this anymore. This blush is slightly complex and hard to describe. I agree with reviewers below that it's a great contour blush, sort of...

great for contour or use in the summer as a cross between bronzer and blush. Lasts all day, doesn't irritate my skin, comes off easily. Will repurchase.

The perfect blush for medium-tan skin for men and women. On men, very little blush it works well for shading in cheecks, nose, and under chin to give you that nice model face structure. I love...

I use this blush for contouring my cheek bones. It's the perfect shade, not too dark, but not gray on ashy on my skintone. very easy to apply, smooth and velvety on my face.

Didn't work for me. I'm fair with a pink undertone. I was hoping that this would be a pinky-brown on me. Instead, it was just brown, a brown that looked like dirt on my face. I like Nars...

Ninotchka is a soft neutral brown in the pan, but when dusted VERY LIGHTLY on my light PPP skin, it gives a pretty "glow" of healthy skin. It is not as "bronzey" as a bronzer, instead it is much...

I first tried Ninotchka in the Skin Deep Palette and liked it so much I decided to buy the full sized blush. For some reason the full-sized blush appears somewhat darker than the pan in the...

My HG blush. I am as pale as they get with red/brown hair. This has to be applied with a light hand or I look like I just ran a marathon. The color looks kind of muddy in the pan, but has a...

I got this in my Rapture Palette. It's a tan shade that's really versatile: I like to apply a light layer for a classy polished look. I also use it to contour my face and I use this as well as a...

I have gone through 2 these blushes and I just adore it. It adds warmth to my light complextion. It looks deeper than it actually appears on the skin. The texture is smooth and very easy to...

This used to be my regular color but I think since I stopped frying my skin in the sun (that is, now I'm pale!) the color started to look heavy and orange on my beige skin (I'm half Asian). Love...

If I could, I'd give this a 3.5. This blush appears to be a brown-rose on me. Actually it reminds me of my HG matte blush- PRISM by MAC. In the pan it appears to be a beige-brown shade, but on my...
