OK, this is one hell of an expensive blush at $26 Canadian plus tax. I got it at a local Rexall pharmacy here in Toronto. The packaging is cheap and tawdry. However, truth is: the blush is very,...

In reality, for me this blush was "dirt cheap" as I was given it free when I purchased 2 other products from TheBalm (how great is that???) Down Boy is actually much lighter than it looks in the...

My go-to blush for everyday looks! A rosy pink with a matte finish, finely milled and packed with pigments. The shade leans on the subtler side, but it imparts a very healthy, youthful...

I got this at my nearest Mecca Cosmetica when they were having a 50% off sale. To be honest I was surprised this brand would be anywhere near as cheap as I got it for. I like to go for blushes...

This blush, being a pinky matte colour, is actually one of the more unique blushes I own. It is a buildable pastelly pink colour that actually stays on all day even though it's a powder! Its very...

I would buy this again, but considering the amount of product you get (nearly 10 grams!) I don't think I'll ever be able to finish it! Down Boy comes in a small, sturdy flip top cardboard...

I like this blush. I use it everyday. It is pretty pink. Well pigmented so you have to be careful not to put too much, otherwise you'll look like a girl who just ran a marathon without a sunscreen!...

I love this blush. It is quickly becoming my HG pink. I love that it's buildable but not sheer and it stays on all day! I'm a warmie and sometimes it's hard for us warmies to find pretty pink...

Whenever I saw this blush mentioned on the boards, I knew I had to try it out. It looked like a nice, clean pink, a color I have trouble finding even though I am NW15. Most pinks I am attracted to...
