Hey, Coral, Hey
MAC Hey, Coral, Hey Mineralize Blush ($29.00 for 0.11 oz.) is a medium, pink-coral with warm undertones and a matte finish. It had medium, buildable coverage–three layers to get opaque pigmentation–that applied fairly evenly to my skin. It didn’t take much effort to blend out, but it definitely needed some help after the initial lay down of color. The texture was soft, silky, and smooth without being too powdery or dusty on the skin. It wore well for eight hours on me but I noticed some darkening after six hours of wear.

Formula Overview
$29.00/0.11 oz. - $263.64 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to "build lightly" and "glide onto skin" for "luminous color." Most shades in the range have more medium to semi-opaque coverage, which tends to be buildable to opaque coverage, but most shades are not truly sheer in coverage. The texture used to be drier but has become smoother and more finely-milled over the years. The finish is typically luminous but can be metallic or almost matte depending on the particular shade. They wear between six and eight hours on me.

This is a really pretty colour and there is enough pink in it to make it very wearable for someone with my colouring. But I’m awash in blush – it really is the last thing I need. It is tempting, though!
Knew it! It’s a dupe for Spring Flock! Or Spring Flock is a dupe of it? Either way, I absolutely love that there is a permanent option with a decent grade for if and when I ever run out of SF.
Want this but I have at least 3 dupes, lol. I love bright coral blushes might buy it anyway. MAC, Hourglass and Tarte make my favorite blushes. Almost forgot Nars
Where are these earrings from? Love your blog! Thanks!
