MAC Fleeting Romance Pro Longwear Blush
MAC Fleeting Romance Pro Longwear Blush ($26.00 for 0.21 oz.) is described as a “coral.” It’s a medium-dark, pink-coral with a satin-matte finish. There’s just enough of a sheen that it keeps it from looking flat on the skin, but it doesn’t have a shimmery finish. Surratt Beauty Ponceau (P, $32.00) is brighter. Guerlain Coral Blush (LE) is similar. Milani Coral Cove (05) (LE, $7.99) is brighter, lighter. Dior Corail Bagatelle (763) (LE, $43.00) is similar. MAC Autoerotique (LE, $25.00) is more muted. NARS Day Dream (LE, $29.00) is more shimmery, pinker. Illamasqua Sleek (P, $26.00) is a cream product, warmer. NARS Soulshine (Together) (LE, $29.00) is more shimmery. Edward Bess Secret Affair (P, $43.00) theBalm Frat Boy (P, $21.00) is lighter, pinker. MAC Supercontinental (LE, $21.00) is lighter. MAC Fleet Fast (LE, $21.00) is more shimmery. Dior Pink Glow Blush (LE) is warmer. Dior Coral Glow Blush (LE) is warmer, brighter. Burberry Blossom (P, $42.00) is a touch brighter. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
The texture was soft, silky, and very smooth. It was just a smidgen powdery compared to the other two I reviewed recently, but only by comparison–I don’t think I would have noticed otherwise. It had buildable color payoff as described that went from semi-sheer to mostly opaque (two to three layers), so it should work well on a variety of skin tones. The silkiness of the powder made it easy to apply and blend on the skin as well. MAC claims eight-hour wear, and that’s exactly what I had: eight hours before there was slight fading along the edges. You can also purchase it in pan format through MAC and pop it into your empty palette of choice, which will save you $7 (which almost pays for the empty palette!).

Thanks for this swatches and dupes !
The color is gorgeous.
Laura
No prob!
I am going to have to try this outDidn’t know they had such a pretty color in there!
It’s new, so you’re right on time 🙂
The blush is pretty…but I really like that Power lipstick on you! 😀
Thank you, Sylirael!
This is SUCH a stunning shade <3
It is pretty!
Haha I was like “oh this is soooo pretty… but wait, I already have Dior Corail Bagatelle!” In that case, it’s probably also very similar to Guerlain Magame Rougit, because when I mix all four shades together it’s very very similar to Corail Bagatelle (on my skin tone at least).
You are covered 😉
Such a beautiful color! I’ve never tried a Pro Longwear blush before but I think I want this. Looks perfect for everyday wear
You should check it out next time you’re at MAC!
What a gorgeous coral!! I need this!
Yayyyy!
How does this blush compare to Mac Fleur Power?
I don’t think I have that (I can’t remember if I finally picked it up, but I haven’t photographed it, if I did!), but I would expect Fleur Power to be pinker.
Soooooo beautiful on you Christine!
Thanks, Sue!
I really love the color!
It’s so brightening!
I gave in and ordered it for myself as a birthday present from me. 😉
Besides, the warm, brightening blushes are perfect for combating the “corpse effect” some of the fall lip colors have on my face.
Love this color and i am definitely going to buy this after reading your review… Thank you so much
My pleasure, Fazila!
I’m a sucker for any matte coral blush and I have to say that this looks absolutely perfect.
It is a nice permanent option!
Gorgeous! MAC is winning with all these nice blush shades here lately!
They are!!
Hi Christine,
It seems to me that CORAIL BAGATELLE HAS MANY DUPES. ANOTHER BLUSH THAT I CAN SKIP.
THANKS
Yes, it has a lot of dupes!
On my browser this looks a lot like TheBalm Frat Boy and/or BeneFit’s Majorette. Do you think they’re similar?
Frat Boy is pinker and matte. I don’t have Majorette, sorry!
Hi Hun , do you know How close is this color to the little hearts in the flatter me beauty powder ??
It’s not close – this is much more orange!
This color looks beautiful. How does it compare to Benefit’s CORALista? I’ve been looking for something less shimmery and more pink than CORALista and this looks like it might work.
CORALista is pinker (at least, the standalone, permanent version I have), but this is less shimmery!
