Tarina Tarantino Feather Dollskin Cheek Blush
Tarina Tarantino Feather Dollskin Cheek Blush
Tarina Tarantino Feather Dollskin Cheek Blush ($25.00 for 0.20 oz.) is described as “shimmering peach.” It’s a pink apricot with soft golden shimmer that becomes more of a sheen when it’s sheered out. It’s similar to a lot of coral blushes that exist; it’s a bit pinker, less orange compared to cult favorite NARS Orgasm and resembles Benefit CORALista more. It reminded me a bit of MAC Hipness, too.
The powder is very soft and finely-milled, so when you touch your brush to it, you can pick up quite a bit of color in a single go. This means it is a little powdery, though, so you may want to use a light hand when picking up color. Luckily, though the blush is fairly true-to-pan with good color payoff, it blends out easily because of the overall softness of the powder. It has more of a shimmer-sheen finish, so it doesn’t look frosty or disco ball-like on the cheeks. I had a good experience while wearing it, because it lasted eight hours without migrating or looking faded.
Where to Buy: Sephora, $25
The Glossover
I love how well this wears, and I like that it's shimmery without being frosty--more like a glowy, luminous sheen. This is a coral that should work across skin tones, because it isn't orange, even though it is still warm-toned.

I think it really means something when you post two lovely pictures! This blush looks gorgeous on you, it looks so universally fllattering I might just pick this up! :)

Good to know!
I've been so delighted by the quality of TT's eyeshadows that I'd certainly buy her blushes the next time I'm in the market for a new blush. This colour is pink enough that I'd even consider buying it (Orgasm is too orange for me, while Coralista is pink enough that it's "okay) or I might check out her cooler toned blushes. Thanks for this review, Christine. I was telling a rep at Sephora the other day that I'd never even stopped to look at the TT products until seeing your review of the eyeshadow palette!
Aww! I'm so glad you took a chance and are enjoying it so far :)
Whoa! That blush/highlighter combo is absolutely divine on you! I was initially turned off by TT because of the packaging but I'm totally sold on this blush, haha.
Haha!
Lovely lip color, what is it?

im always drawn to corals!! this reminds me of the flush kids get when they run around. so natural!
Corals are impossible to resist!
Which foundation are you wearing in this picture? I don't know if it's the blush or what but you skin looks even more amazing than usual.
Guerlain Lingerie de Peau!
Woooow! This is a gorgeous blush!! Never tried anything from Tarina Tarantino before, but this looks like a must have! Love the coral pink color and the slight shimmer, not too overwhelming =)
Definitely check it out!
I love this blush! I have it, but can't find it right now... Very sad!
Hopefully you can find it soon :)
This is so pretty, and you look adorable with that combination of make up.
Thank you, Callie!
This is beautiful!! This whole look is beautiful. What are you wearing on your eyes.
Thanks, Jennifer!
It looks so pretty but I already own some coral blushes. Corals are still my favourite for blushes.
What are some of your favorite corals?
Oh my a great blush with no dimethicone?? I'm sold!!
I didn't even notice that!
Christine, this really makes your face glow. When I saw it on the main page, I said "Good gawd I need this!" Seriously though, I don't need another blush. Maybe if it goes on sale LOL!
LOL! Coral blush is hard to resist.
This is gorgeous, but it does remind me of Coralista! But you can never have enough coral blushes ;)
True!!
I don't know if it's the look + the earrings or what, but you look SO elegant in these photos!! :) That alone makes me want to buy this.
Thank you, Sarah!
I've never been interested in Tarina Tarantino cosmetics, but I think I may have to pick this up. Hopefully it will work well with my NC42 skin! Thanks for the review!
If this seems to light, check out Parasol! :)
That is Gorgeous!
It's such a classic shade!
Ooooh what a pretty color! And my god, if I have half of the amount of eyebrow hair you have, I'd die happy. Christine, this is just me talking crap probably, but I think it'd be really interesting to see a picture of you when you're not smiling, to see how blushes looks on a normal face, stuff like that. One of these days I hope I get to see it.
Haha, don't think you'll be seeing that - the less ugly photos of me online the better! The next thing you know, there'll be a GIF!
Pffft honey, you're so far from ugly you can't even find it in the map. And GIF can be a good thing... lol! Nevertheless, I hope I get to!
Quite awhile back she reveiwed an illamasqua intense lipgloss that was bright blue and in the picture she had a totl :| face! still she somehow managed to look gorgeous! http://www.temptalia.com/illamasqua-gender-intense-lipgloss-review-photos-swatches
Lovely!! Will def check this out next time in Sephora. Right now, I am totally in love with NARS Exhibit A, Taj Mahal and Cactus Flower. The former two were bought through your motivation. They are super lovely on my NC42 skin..! Thanks
You may also like Parasol!
The finish of this is so gorgeous! The color suits you really well, too :)
Thanks, Seana!
Al I have to say is Kudos for Tarina Tarantino doing makeup right. Feather & Parasol are up my alley but I know i have something similar.
I'm really enjoying the line a lot right now!
