Looking forward to your review! When you post the full review, can you let us know if these fit in the wells of the MAC palette inserts?

If these are comparable to the e/s, I’, in serious trouble! Marlena has worked very hard on her products. I guess the lippie market was too saturated, no pun intended. I checked MUG yesterday: no announcement. Maybe she announced today, can’t imagine her letting you scoop her! Nice, varied selection, and not as pink-heavy as I expected. MUG has great bang for the buck. Can’t wait for your assessment and to see how they look on you.

Yay thanks Christine! I’ve been waiting for this post. I know you’re super busy but do you think it’ll be possible to get your review on them before the launch date? As always, I only put a product on my list if it gets an ok from you 🙂

I’ve never been so excited about a review like this. Because I’d never seen a selection including so stunning 13 blush shades!!
I’m not a sucker for blushes. I’m a sucker for eyeshadows.
So, I prefer to have a few blushes (special blushes) than a zillion blushes (I mean “special blushes” the blushes I have chosen carefuly, I definitely like and mostly I really use).
I’m generally a fan of MAKEUP GEEK. Adore their eyeshadows (lovely shades, someone unique shades, great quality and doesn’t break the bank).
And I have just falled in love with their blushes.
I love Bliss, Rendezvous and Spellbound (gonna checking out them!!) and though shimmery shades aren’t right up my alley, I also like Honeymoon and Romance.
Rendezvous is a lovely and unique shade!!
Can’t wait for your full review!

I’m looking at first love. Looks a little chalky though… can’t wait to hear what you think. Hope maybe you can swatch it on someone with light skin tone?

Christine, do you think Head Over Heels is similar to MAC Peaches and Cream blush? I was thinking about purchasing it when it hits the stores thursday. Would be great if I could just get this for 10.99 🙂 thanks!

Annie Avatar

Wow, they are so pretty! Honeymoon and Bliss look similar to an old favorite discontinued blush of mine, Waffle Cone by Everyday Minerals. I have ordered MUG’s gel liners and an eye pigment and was really pleased with the quality. Have always been curious to try more of their products. Could you share the ingredients list for the blushes when you review? =)

Shelley Avatar

Soooooooooo excited!! I’m trying to be good/be on a no buy, but I think I see a birthday present request in my future. Bliss and Head over Heels are my favorites from the swatches.

I wish a dupe for Tarte Exposed , some of them look on the powdery side though , but maybe I am wrong . Looking forward to your review!

SandraJT Avatar

Bliss, Honeymoon, Love Affair, Spellbound and Summer Fling will all be ones I’m ordering as soon as they’re released, regardless of the fact that I’ve already got enough blush for 5 lifetimes.

Arielle Avatar

I’m super duper crossing my fingers and hoping Marlena’s team comes out with matte contouring colors in a good range of colors. If anyone from her team is reading know that I’m waiting patiently for it!

Monica Avatar

I have my eye on Romance, Head Over Heels, Honeymoon, Love Affair and Spellbound. They all look gorgeous and I am looking forward to your reviews.

Georgina Avatar

Hi Christine (or anyone who now own these lovely blushers), just wondering about the size of these? I’m about to invest in my second Mac Pro palette with eyeshadow and blusher inserts. Will these fit perfectly into the insert? I’m in love with romance blush! It reminds me of sleek rose gold

They look pretty enough. Though I can’t help but notice that the shades are targeted more towards fair skintones with a few that will go for medium skin. Nothing for dark skinned beauties :/
