Orgasm is a bit darker and more pigmented. I prefer Orgasm personally.

I have this and Orgasm. I find the shade to be comparable, however their finish is different. Orgasm is more pigmented, and contains glitter - which is where it gets its sheen from. Coralista is lighter and contains no glitter, but leaves a shimmery finish. If you're familiar with Nars Albatross - the finish in Coralista is similar to that.

I think NARS "Orgasm" is a bit more intense in color and a little more on the "peach" color side.

I think so, but that's only my opinion. When I was in the store making this purchase, I was choosing between this one and Orgasm, and I felt, for my skin coloring, that this product offered a more natural looking glow as opposed to blushed cheeks. HTH.

I would actually copare them I would say orgasm is a little shinnier and coralista has a more metallic finish
I rather wear coralista than orgasm
:)

Noooo! I actually returned this for Orgasm... which is amazing!

Very comparable to Nars Orgasm (one of my favorites), minus the glitter.

I don't think that this will be good on tanned skin. I'm about the color of Alicia Keys. This didn't show up at all on me.

i don't think this would show up very well on dark or tan skin. i am light to medium and i have to add a bit to get the depth of color that i like. but that being said.. i like a LOT of color on my cheeks. This color is pretty sheer/sheeny

I like this as I'm building my tan, it can be layered on a little more for some more color; but I guess it just depends on the look you're going for. I have a blush palette w/ various colors I add a pop of color with over the top of this if it's not enough. Good luck playing with it! : )

Try to find a blush with more coral or peach. CoraLista is awesome! If you buy it from Sephora and don't like it, you have 30 days to return it. If you have a Sephora store near you, visit it and talk to one of the make-up assistants because you can try anything and everything in the store. Then go outside into the sunlight to really see if this is the look you are looking for. Besides, CoraLista smells great!

I don't have dark skin, but I can relate to Nars Orgasm being the wrong color. This is a softer coral and it has much less shimmer than the Nars blush. So, it might work well for you. I think it would be lovely on dark skin. It almost looks like a bronzer here online, but in person, it's a true coral. You may have to put it on a bit heavier to get it to show up, depending on how deep your skin is, but I find a couple of swipes is perfect for me, and I'm quite fair.

I think this is a good product but I don't think it will be good on dark tan skin. If your darker and more tan I think the best kind of blush to use is cream blush.

i use an angled blush brush..it fits perfectly in the package and then i smile and put it on the apples of my cheeks

I use the Bare Escentuals Handy Buki Brush with this item and all my other Benefit Boxed Powders and powder foundations. Buff it on over foundation or bronzer starting from your cheeks and moving your way up to your temples. Wash the brush once a week with dish soap, gel cleansers or a moisturizing bar of soap ( I like Cetaphil).

I find I get the perfect application when I put a bit on my blush brush, smile to find my apples, dab it right on my apples, tap off any remaining blush on my brush and blend it up and out over my cheekbones :)

Ease up on the amount of product you're putting on the brush. There's no need to rub or grind the brush into the product, a light sweep is plenty. Make sure your skin is properly moisturizer maybe even primed if you have primer. If that doesn't help, try a different blush brush.

I use an angled blush brush or the sephora airbrush blush brush. Try the sephora airbrush collection brushes. I feel in love with it instantly.

I use an angeled blush brush and it works great!

Yes. A little bit , if you have sensitive skin check out tartes blushes they are great quality, Always raved about. They have natural ingredients so they should be good for people with sensitive skin.

YES!! it does have fragrance in it, it broke me out like crazy just as you say these kind of products do to you as well. It disappoints me because this product gave such a pretty, luminous, natural-looking color, but unfortunately they felt it had to smell good lol. I would not recommend this

Lots of fragrance.

I can't say that it has a perfume per say, but I can say that it has a noticeable perfume scent to it. Hope that helps!

It has a very slight floral scent.

Yes, it does have shimmer. BUT the shimmer is minimal. I am 34 and have had bad experiences with too much shimmer, sparkle, or glitter looking products on my face and cheeks (shimmer, glitter, sparkle still work for my eyes) because it makes me look older than I am because it settles funny on my face. I have been using CoraLista for a few weeks and I still love it today. I get compliments on a regular basis for my sun-kissed looking cheeks.

I wouldn't say this has a shimmer to it, it's more like a subtle gleam or sheen. It's not glittery or really noticeably shiny or shimmery when it is on the skin.

I'd describe it as having a frosty sheen to it with slight shimmer. On my cheeks it looks extremely natural. Compare it to Nars Orgasm which is a similar color but instead is shimmery with specks of glitter.

I just bought this blush about 3 weeks ago, by a recommendation of the sales clerk. Love it! It has just a hint of color and smells wonderful. It does have any sparkles in it. I think it would be great for and skin tone, or age of person.

It does have a very slight sheen to it ,but it's just the right amount . It just enough to add some "pop" in it. I love mine and I prefer matte colors as well.

This blush does not contain parabens, although some Benefit products do. Here are the ingredients of this blush: Talc, Mica, Titanium Dioxide, Polyethylene, Ethyl Hexyl Palmitate, Dimethicone, Zinc Stearate, Magnesium Myristate, Iron Oxides, Phenoxyethanol, Boron Nitride, Sodium Dehydroacetate, Lecithin, Fragrance, Red 7 Lake, Aluminium Hydroxide, Carmine, Red 30 Lake, Tocopheryl Acetate, Iron Oxides, Manganese Violet, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil, Tocopherol, BHT, Retinyl Palmitate, Limonene, Ultramarines.

there are none listed on the ingredient label

No ma'am.

Just checked out the ingredients and didn't see any parabens listed.

CORALista is paraben free!

I've noticed it doesn't stay on that long too, but I would try using foundation or if you already use that than use a primer first and that should help.

Maybe you could try using a primer like Smashbox photo finish. It makes all of your makeup last longer and not fade. Or, you could try a cream blush of a similar color underneath....then follow with the Coralista. The cream blush will act as a base/primer and make it last longer.

Try it over MAC's BlushCreme in "Lady Blush". Works for me every time in lasting all day and enriching the color!

Before I apply my foundation, I apply Smashbox green primer. This helps my foundation go on more smoothly and keep it on. It also helps with my pink spots and evens me out. After I apply my foundation, I apply my Bare Escentuals Mineral Veil (face powder) to set my foundation. Then I apply my blush over that. I sometimes apply my Mac Pretty Baby face powder over my entire face after I apply my blush. Either way I do it, seems to work for me because I don't have any problems with my CoraLista staying put.

Maybe the lighting in your bathroom is not ideal for applying makeup because my bathroom had bad lighting and a cranberry-ish paint color. This caused me problems applying my make up properly because it looked like I had put on too much blush, even though I didn't. When I would check my face before getting out of the car, it looked like I wasn't wearing any blush. So, I fixed the lights and repainted the bathroom (neutral color) and voila! problem solved.

Try misting with a heavy water spray over the top. It sets mineral make up & blush for hours.

I think YSL cream blush in 01 is quite similar in tone to this benefit blush, but w/ out shimmer. It's an incredible blush with a perfect silky/creamy texture. I LOVE it!

It is too shiny for me too ... I found Tarte in the color blissful it is awesome!! ... I really like it a lot i has a little bit of shine in the package but when you apply it it looks matte. :D REALLY REALLY GOOD!!!!

Lancome's Rose Romantique is pretty close.... look at some NYX blushes! they're pretty matte!

try "s*x appeal" from nars Item # 1285121

Try "Golden Gate" by bareMinerals...not as pigmented, but you can build it and it's gorgeous!

I think it would be perfect! :)

Yes - I have fairly fair skin and this blush makes me look AMAZING! It's just enough color to give me that wonderful glow without making me look clownish.

I have a light skin and I love it! I wear it to class, so it can be very discrete if you apply it with a large powder brush. I get a healthy, barely there glow.

I'm quite pale as well, but this color is so blendable I think it could really work on any one as long as you use a light hand! This is my all-time favorite blush.

it is not orange at all. it is the perfect light coral color, even on fair skin tones.

I'm very fair and the shade looks lovely. If you pair it with eye makeup that is too dark it may be a bit too much - but I wear it with a plain cat eye style liquid eyeliner and it looks sweet and gorgeous.

This product will not be too dark on fair skin. I have fair skin as well. Being that this product is very pigmented, make sure you use it wisely.

I have very fair skin too and this product is actually perfect. I love it! The picture makes it look kind of dark and orangy but it really comes out too a light neutral pink color. Do this: search benefit in the search box, when it gets to benefit products click on the "get the look box," when there, look at the "complexion perfection" model. She's light complected and they've used this blush on her and she looks gorgeous. That's what sold me so I went and got it and it's just right for my fair skin tone.

NO...I have fair skin and it is a beautiful color...just the right amount! You will love it!!!

Not too dark at all! I also have very fair skin, and Coralista gives my cheeks a subtle, natural looking color and pretty glow. Don't be intimidated by how the color looks in the box- it's definately not that dark or bright!
