Well this is the best blush I have used. It stays in all day, blends into your skin and looks just like a natural feminine glow. Love the retro themed packaging, it may only be cardboard but it is...

This blush is just "Ok" in my opinion. It's a basic cool pink shade that comes in a really cute compact. In fact, the packaging is the best thing about "Down Boy". My biggest issue with this blush...

I’m a blush junkie so I can never have enough blushes. I have close to 15 blushes but I always felt like my blush collection isn’t complete without thebalm blushes. At the same time, I don’t...

This is without a doubt the best blush I have ever used! I'm normally not a big fan of blushes at all and due to this I've never had a favourite by any means. I bought 'Down Boy' and 'Hot Mamma'...

All 3 of the blushes I own by theBalm (this, Frat Boy, Hot Mama) are amazing. There isn't much I can say that already hasn't been said about Down Boy: It's pigmented as heck, blends well, stays on....

It's extremely pigmented. I had a hard time not overdoing it and ending up with a tacky barbie pink. The color on the pan is classic pink - nothing special. The other problem I had with this was...

I really like this brush. It is shimmerless, classical pink as told by previous reviewers. My light-medium skin has gold-yellow undertones ( For Referece: NARS Sheer Glow-Punjab/ M.A.C NW 25)...

I have oily, suuuper yellow NC25 skin, so a lot of pink blushes pull coral or peach on me. However, this is the one true, light pink blush that I can wear which stays TRUE to its color throughout...

This is an ok blush. The colour is not bad, but not perfect, and staying power is on the poor side. The container is cute, but that doesn't cover the flaws this product has. First of all, it dusts...

I usually don't like pink blushes, bc they all turn a weird "wine" color or they're SO pink that it looks like I'm trying too hard. That's usually the problem I have with MAC's pink blushes. If...

Absolutely one of my favorite blushes. I have light skin that I would say is neutral toned but leans more toward cool than warm. I love TheBalm packaging its old fashioned in a way yet modern. This...
