Editor's Review

MAC Blushbaby Powder Blush ($24.00 for 0.21 oz.) is a muted, medium pink with warmer undertones and a matte finish. It had semi-sheer, buildable pigmentation (to mostly opaque with three layers) with a smooth, firmer, and denser consistency. The texture didn't feel dry (and did feel more finely-milled than my older version of the same shade), so it blended out with little effort on my skin. The color stayed on well for eight hours before fading noticeably.

Blushbaby is a beautiful mauvy-pink blush, very close to my natural flush when I get a slight sunburn (I'm a light-medium warm yellow undertone, MAC NC20). While I've see everyone describing this like a mauve, on me it shows more pink. Usually I go with more cool toned blushes, but this is one of few warm toned pink blushes that looks good on me. The blush is very pigmented, it surprised me when I first got it because it's not a sheer / light color, it's a medium pink and I was afraid that it would be too dark for me. Fortunately it's a buildable formula, it's not too dark if I apply it with a light hand. I like that the powder in the pan is firm, but not stiff, easy to pick-up with all sorts of brushes without fallout. On me it lasts all day, which is surprising since most blushes disappear in a few hours.

A really nice everyday blush, but I personally think that you don't have to spend that much money on this MAC product. It's a colour that can be easily duped
