I have the shades Soft Peach and Warm Honey. Both get 5 stars from me. Soft Peach might look light in the pan, but don't let that fool you - it's pigmented enough to show up on my medium-tan skin (NW 35-ish) without a fuss. If you're NW 35-40, try it out, it might surprise you. Warm Honey is such a gorgeous shade for medium and deeper skin tones. This is the blush that convinced me to give shimmer blushes a chance despite my oily skin. It wears well throughout the day and the glow is soft and subtle, not glittery. I haven't found another blush formula quite like these duos, and they're well worth the splurge.

This is a workhorse neutral palette and a great choice for someone who is newer to makeup or looking to step it up in a professional environment. The shimmers are tasteful shades that blend beautifully, there are plenty of mattes (including at least 3 shades that are deep enough to double as eyeliner shades), and there is a mix of warm and cool tones that allows for some variety while still being pretty user-friendly. My only real gripe is with the shade Tempera - it's a repeat from Modern Renaissance, and a little too light for a lot of people to use regularly.
