MAC Life's a Picnic Blush ($22.00 for 0.21 oz.) is described as a "hot reddish pink." It's a bold, bright medium coral-pink with very subtle undertones and a satin finish. It was intensely pigmented with a really soft, smooth consistency that blended out easily on the skin and had a natural finish that didn't emphasize pores but didn't look too flat or powdery either. I actually found it looked linker and less coral the more I blended it out--I can see this one's tone changing from person to person a little more than your average blush shade. It lasted for eight and a half hours before fading. Makeup Geek Love Affair (DC, $9.99) is more muted (90% similar). MAC Oh My! (LE, $24.00) is warmer (90% similar).
