MAC’s Mineralize Blush formula is supposed to be a “blush that builds lightly” that has a lightweight feel and “luminous colour.” Gleeful had semi-opaque color coverage, though it is easily sheered out or built-up for truly opaque coverage. The thinner, dusty consistency made it very blendable, but the thinness prevented it from looking powdery or dry applied, as it tended to “melt” almost once applied. This shade had a glowing finish that didn’t emphasize pores but produces a noticeable sheen. On me, there was noticeable fading after seven and a half hours of wear.

I am surprised myself 😉
Wow another good one from Mac!

Lovely shade! It looks great on you.
Thanks, Rachel!
What a flattering color on you!
Thank you, Erin!
Oh, pretty, but I prefer the gold shimmers in the other one
I could totally see that being more appealing!
Another great Mineralize blush??? Why on earth have I never even once checked any of these out while on one of my million and one MAC adventures is just a shame on my part! Gonna be checking these out from here on in though!
LOL! Those permanent things are so easy to overlook!
Very true! Too many of us, me included, go all ga-ga over their LE stuff, and meanwhile, the BEST stuff is right in front of our noses. After swatching some of these last night, I was seriously blown away by their beauty!
Very pretty! It looks so good on you, as if yoou’ve been out for a walk with Mellan on a cool wintery day.
