This blush is absolutely fabulous. My MA told me to use this as a contour with my 116 brush and I've never looked back!
This is a beautiful product! I use this as a contour, as I find it can look too harsh as a blush. It blends easily into the skin to give a very natural shadow under the cheekbone and the colour is also quite buildable. Paired with a highlighter (I use benefit highbeam) it really sculpts the face and looks fantastic. The packaging is quite dull however, but the product is great and that's what matters I guess! I would definitely recommend :)
One of the best purchases I've ever made, really. Sounds ridiculous for a blush, but it really is.
I use it as a contour, on my pale nw/nc15 skin. It is ever so slightly orange on me if i'm wearing a very very pale foundation, such as Bare Minerals in Fair, but if i'm wearing something with a tad more colour (but still a match to my skin, like NARS Sheer Glow in Mont Blanc) then it is very beautiful. It really warms the skin while still being flat enough to work as a contour. I have slightly copper tones in my hair and it is beautiful bouncing off of those.
A staple now - a good, solid colour and formulation I come back to time and again. I really wouldn't be without it now. Lovely.

I used it as my blusher rather than contouring. I found it too dark and kinda dirty. As a blusher, it have this nice glow on my skin!
I bought this blush originally as a contour powder, although I'm not completely happy with it for those purposes. I'm a NC20 and I just feel that this colour is a little too dark and dirty looking as a contour colour, particularly in daylight, although for a night out it's fine. The other day I used this as a blusher and bronzer and it is amazing. I cannot rave about this more. It provides a wonderfully natural bronzed look to my skin, and I end up applying this to the tops of my cheeks, my hairline, forehead, a little along the nose and in the crease of my eye to define it, and then I just put loads of mascara on and it is the most wonderfully natural sexy look ever. It can be used to subtly frame the face and give that glowy look. I am in love and reccomend it not as a contour powder although it might work for some, but rather as a matte subtle bronzer and blusher!

This product was alright. I wanted to use it as a countour shade but it had more of a reddish-undertone to it. Didn't really suit my skin as my skin is golden with yellow undertones.

I don't even know where to begin with this product! I love it in sooo many ways! It is the perfect contour colour and looks great on my skin tone. (NC 20) I can use this as a blush too if I use a light hand and like the other MAC blushes, it's very pigmented. I recommend this blush to the high heavens and I seriously think you are missing out if you don't have it!

I absolutely love this blush! I was originally just looking to use this as a contour blush to accentuate my high cheekbones. The MUA thought it would be too light as a contour but when I tried it, I thought it was perfect. It didn't appear as if I even had it on...but in a good way. I had planned on using this just as a contour blush but most often time this is the only thing I put on my cheeks. I like the natural look where it barely looks like you have make-up on but very well put together.

Today must be blush day as I am checking all my "old" blushes and putting them in categories where I can locate them easier.
I think I bought my first Harmony in the late 90's (eek!) and have had it on hand all these years. I love that it is slightly deeper than my other blushes with a definitive browny base. I use it in summer for contouring and if I happen to want to look bronzier. It is a good color for contouring and I have used it on some clients with a deeper skintone who want a light contouring.
I am sad that Strada (which was my favorite is discontinued) but this is a good replacement, albeit a bit darker.
like all of MAC blushes, they deliver great color. I do wish MAC would develop a casing which would be easier to depot or a pop out like BB and LM.
