MAC Oh My, Passion! Pearlmatte Face Powder Review, Photos, Swatches
Oh My, Passion!
MAC Oh My, Passion! Pearlmatte Face Powder ($33.00 for 0.28 oz.) is comprised of a soft yellow, reddish-brown, pink-coral, and pinky lavender that swirl together and create a subdued pinky-peach with warm undertones and a pearly sheen. It could look pinker or more muted depending on how much of the pink/lavender compared to brown was picked up.
The Pearlmatte Face Powder is supposed to be a combination of a highlighter and blush with “excellent colour payoff” and a “rich and creamy texture.” They vary a lot in price and size, as they are a limited edition formula and often feature embossing/special designs. The consistency was incredibly smooth and soft in the pan with a touch of powderiness, but luckily, that powderiness didn’t translate to the skin. Instead, the more I buffed and blended out the color, the more luminous the finish became–glowing but not overtly shimmery and never emphasized my skin’s natural texture. It had good pigmentation, which was buildable to opaque coverage if desired. The blush wore well for eight hours on me before fading noticeably.
This collection launches on May 18th.

I’ve been drooling over this beauty ever since I set my eyes on it. Will be mine!!!!
Hope you get yours, Katherine!
So pretty!
It is!
Do you think this will show up on tan to deep skintones? I am NC45 and would like to purchase this but am not sure if it will show up on me.
I think it would work more as a highlighter than a blush!
I’m not usually a big MAC fan, but wow, this is really pretty.
The design and end product were nice!
I am SO glad to see that this did so well! From the moment I first got a glimpse of it, it was love at first sight! Getting!
It’s going to be a hot seller, I think!
The night of the drop might be a long one… unless I can presale it. ?
Super pretty but most pinky peach blush looks the same on my NC25/30 skin. So I’m staying strong.
You can resist! 😀
Is the design overspray?
It is a multi-colored powder!
Pretty 🙂
Agreed!
I’m a sucker for a pretty compact
It is a gorgeous one!
Oh, it’s turned out quite well! LOVE!
It did!
Looks really good. I was a bit afraid that it would be too brown.
Definitely not a lot of brown in it!
I knew I was going to love this and I do!
Yayy!
This is a must have!!!
I hope you can get it, Bonnie!
Yes!!! I’m so getting this.
Awesome, Brenda!
I was hoping that this wouldn’t swatch well because it’s so pretty! This is such a gorgeous powder – both design and the colour! Looks like it’s going to be quite a universally flattering colour on many skintones!
They did a great job on it!
This is a glorious blush and I thought it looked good when I first saw it.
It turned out to be a lovely product!
Lovely! But money saved as I have the Tan and Flash Cruise dupe ?.
Perfect 😀
This is beautiful! It will be mine. I’m glad to see. That it will be dark enough for me.
Enjoy it, Primpcess! 🙂
can it act as a bronzer if you take from the brown side? and highlight if you take from the yellow side?
It would be hard to use it individually due to the size!
Love!
🙂
This is stunning in all respects; it’s so hard to resist! I’m staying strong, though.
Good job staying strong 😀
This looks gorgeous on you! From the skin swatch, I suspected that it might be too light to show up on my medium (NC30) skin, but it looks like it can be built up!
It should show up on NC30 skin!
I’m a NW10 and fell in love with this, I decided to buy this and with a light touch it works out great. Absolutely love it
So glad it works for you, Rebecca!
This is so beautiful; definitely getting!
Enjoy it, Cathy! xo
So pretty, both inside & out!
It is!
