<em>MAC Lovecloud Blush</em></p>
<h2>MAC Lovecloud Blush</h2>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.maccosmetics.com">MAC Lovecloud Blush</a></strong> ($20.00 for 0.21 oz.) is described as a &#8220;bright mid-tone pink&#8221; with a satin finish. This is almost a yellow-based pink, but it looks blue-based when it is applied heavily. I would err and say it is just barely cool-toned. <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/tarte-dollface-amazonian-12-hour-clay-blush-review-photos-swatches#image1">Tarte Dollface</a> is similar, but it has a softer sheen. <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/bobbi-brown-nude-pink-blush-review-photos-swatches#image1">Bobbi Brown Nude Pink</a> is similar but has stronger blue undertones and a matte finish. <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/nyx-english-rose-hd-grinding-blush-review-photos-swatches#image1">NYX English Rose</a> is a bit lighter and cooler toned. <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/bobbi-brown-pretty-palette-review-photos-swatches#image1">Bobbi Brown Pretty Pink</a> is very similar but a little less blue-based and more matte in finish.</p>
<p>The color coverage is definitely buildable&#8211;you can go from a soft, sheer look to a much more intense, bolder cheek without too much work. Lovecloud may be listed as a satin finish, but it bordered on frost&#8211;it had one of the strongest sheens of the six blushes from this launch. While it did not truly emphasize skin imperfections and pores, it was less naturally luminous on the skin compared to the other shades.</p>
<p>It felt soft to the touch without being powdery, and once applied, it blended out without difficulty when I used the 116. I&#8217;ve tested numerous MAC blushes in the past, and overall, they hold up between seven and eight hours. Out of this particular launch, I only specifically tested <em>Full of Joy</em> (which stayed true to the average) but hope to try a couple more shades. If there are any discrepancies, I&#8217;ll be sure to update the review to reflect that.</p>
<p>Because this shade doesn&#8217;t lean too blue, it should work well on both warmer and cooler complexions, and because the pigmentation level is higher, it can be suitable for a wider range of skin tones as well. I think this particular shade will be a good go-to for a transitional blush between spring and summer.</p>
