What was the last blush that caught your eye? Did you purchase or pass?
About Face’s cheek balms seemed intriguing, so I made it my first priority to review those from the brand (which is new to me).

The Patrick Ta Double Take Blush Duos. I bought She’s Blushing. It’s ok. It seems like much more of a fall color so I’m holding off until using it until maybe the middle of September . I will see if my opinion improves. I liked it after I wore it once but wasn’t wowed.
MAC Sheertone Blush in Blushbaby…I bought it a few months ago.
Such a great staple. And a unique shade when waaaay back no one else was doing these muted tones except Mac.
That’s the one that I intend to finally get, Seraphine! It’s just the perfect natural flush. ☺️
Well – there were two. One was MAC’s ED blush in Wrapped Candy which I’d passed on when they were first released but which I bought at the start of this year, when MAC had a 30% off sale. It’s discontinued now and I know I probably would have regretted not getting it since it’s gone (that’s often how I feel, even about products I’m not totally wild about) but I probably should have passed as it looks sort of brown, muddy and dull on me. The other – HUDA’s Glo-wish blush in Charming Cherry – caught my eye just when stores started to reopen and I was in the Sephora in Ottawa and just itching to buy “something”… So I bought it and I really like it though I don’t use it often enough.
YSL Couture Blush in Fuchsia Stiletto. I was passing by their makeup counter at Dillard’s and it caught my eye. It’s such a fresh, bright shade….I had to stop and swatch it and I walked around the store with it on my wrist and I couldn’t leave the store without buying it! LOL. I absolutely love it and I’ve been wearing it every day. I was looking for something to replace my Clinique Cheek Pop in Berry Pink (discontinued!!)
and this is perfect. Beautiful blush.
I haven’t been motivated to buy a powder blush since Chanel Brun Rossi, let alone a cream blush, but I was intrigued by Phytosurgance Condensate because of the uniqueness of the shade and the brand is new to me so I purchased. I’m a bit ambivalent about it and could have saved the money.
Pat McGrath Labs Skin Fetish Divine Blush Duo’s are on sale now at Sephora US for $31, so I’ve definitely had my eye on those! Might nab Paradise Glow or Cosmic Coral.
Mac Gingerly Sheertone blush, thought it be too dark for me but i was wrong. It is lovely and i love it.
Many new brands or formulas have gotten my attention, but I haven’t bought any new blush since my purchase of Nars Afterglow blush palette. The next one on my list is actually something that has sat on my WL for YEARS: MAC Blushbaby! May even put together a two-fer and add one other shade…hmm.
I’m interested in the new Gucci blushes.They look smooth and pretty. Wondering if the formula lives up the high price of $49. Just brought 2 of PMG blush duos , I really like Paradise Glow.
Oh, man, I am dying to get my hands on at least 2 of the new RMS blushes. Sephora Canada has not stocked (or re-stocked) them and I refuse to pay USD + shipping/import fees so the wait continues. I’m being forced to pass but I will absolutely purchase when I get the chance!
I am not a blush person, but I got a free sample of the Rose Inc creamy blush and it blew me away. I snagged it in Azalea, and then thanks to the very helpful brand ambassador who happened to be at the Sephora (and the wine I had for lunch, TBH), I also got the Rose Inc skin tint, concealer, and eye cream. I’m really happy with all of it!
Now that my beloved Clinique Melon Pop is in its last uses, I saw a Shiseido Inner Glow blush on sale and checked up its review on Temptalia – to see how it rated and what shade would suit me best. You can get them here in Aus, but at double the price. I ended up getting Twilight Hour – a medium pink with a soft pearl finish. I found it to be a little more pigmented that the Melon Pop – so a little goes a long way. I do like it and it sits nicely on my cheeks.
I am interested in those Give Me Glow blushes that you swatched the other day too.
MAC Glow Play Blush in Flowerescent. I purchased.
I fell in love with the Pat McGrath divine duo in Venusian Sunrise & I’ve got my eye on the new Gucci blushes.
