Becca Damselfly Mineral Blush ($32.00 for 0.20 oz.) is described as a “bright coral.” It’s more like a muted coral-orange with a warm, golden sheen. It’s a bit like MAC My Paradise but softer, less orange. Make Up For Ever #153 is pinker, more shimmery. MAC Marine Life is slightly pinker with less of a golden sheen.

Becca’s Mineral Blushes are supposed to “impart natural, luminous color” with a long-wearing formula that never looks cakey or chalky. It delivers a healthy amount of pigmentation with very little product, but it’s not so intense that you need to be extra careful when applying. The texture of this is so, so finely milled; it’s silky smooth and extremely soft. It has more of a sheen than a shimmer, so it produces a soft, lit-from-within glow on cheeks while adding natural warmth. This is a blush that is particularly flattering on warmer skin tones, as it looks natural but still gives a nice flush. The formula wears well, too; it lasts just over eight hours for me and still looks decent at nine hours, but there’s a definite fading by the tenth hour.
