I need to calm down with buying blushers but THIS WAS 50% OFF, HOW COULD I SAY NO D:! I'm a huge sucker for warm corals/pinks. I made the mistake of enthusiastically swirling my brush all over the pan and smacking it on my cheeks. wah...so pigmented - not complaining just saying. use a light hand and buff it out for a lovely flush of color. smooth and finely milled. pretty good staying power for a good majority of the day on my acne-prone, oily skin. I'm sure it's a very dupe-able color but if you can get it on sale then get it, you won't regret it :D

The blush's extremely pigmented. I found it very easy to overdo, and I was using a stipple brush. The color's true to pan.

Gorgeous warm toned blush that I use occasionally but not something I can't do without.

I love the color of this blush and I adore that it's matte it's a lovely coral pink however the staying power is poor after about three-four hours it looks like I never had any blush on at all I got down boy to try and see if I had the same problem if I do then I will just stick with my tarte blushes.

Very pretty coral-peach-pink-apricot fusion of matte colors! It lasts me a full workday with no fading. I like that there's no shimmer to it. It doesn't accentuate pores or anything. It adds a nice warmth to the face. Some coral/peach blushes might look orange on certain skin, but my experience with theBalm has been true-to-color product. What you see is the color that shows up on your face. The same goes for theBalm's Down Boy blush. With a light swipe, this can be worn sheer or with a heavier swipe it will be super pigmented. Definitely buildable & very affordable. Repurchase? Absolutely!

For reference, I'm asian, dry skin, nc25 with yellow undertones. continued >>

This naturally peachy pinky blush is on its way to HG for me, I can feel it! On my NC30 light tan Asian skin, it really gives me a healthy blushing glow that "finishes" my face, so I look natural, but still like I made a little effort :) The texture is amazing, on par with GA Sheer Blush; finely milled with a soft finish. Not sparkly, not powdery, just perfectly soft and glowing. The color is very slightly shimmery, but it doesn't read shimmery on my skin. No emphasized pores or glitter at all. I will definitely try other thebalm blushes!

Whenever I wear this blush, I always get compliments on how beautiful my complexion is. Its a pretty peach-coral shade with a little shimmer. I think this is WAAY more flattering than NARS "Orgasm" (Whenever I see people where that blush it seriously looks like a glitter bomb exploded on their face). The shiimmer in this is far less detectable and a lot more flattering. It adds a gorgeous glow to the face. Love this stuff!

This is my HG blush! It is the only blush I've ever used that stayed on for a full work day, stayed pigmented and didn't get blotchy at all. It doesn't make me break out which is usually an issue when I use blush. Really worth the money as its also blendable and will suit many skin tones. Love!

I love all TheBalm products that I own, in particular the blushes. I don't know why but I reach more for this than for down boy (which I also love). It is so flattering and pigmented, love it!
Just give it a try!
