I really like this blush. A little goes a long way. To much & you'll look clowning. It was a bit expensive (26$) & the container is cheap, like my 3$ NYX but so far so good. The pigment is perfect & stays even after a sweaty workout.

I was so excited to try this shade (and a BB blush). I swatched it on my NW20 hand and was very curious. Before I applied to my cheeks I double checked the ingredients...yikes, good thing I did. It has lanolin & beeswax pretty high up there...both of which my skin has rejected (painfully) before. I quickly wiped the swatch on my hand and sadly moved on. Frustrated & disappointed.

This blush is so pretty! I am fairly pale and it isn't too dark on me, don't be fooled by the color in the pan! It's kind of pricey but worth it because it will last you forever.

I LOVE this blush! Don't be fooled by the super hot pink color in the compact, this blush goes on much more light. It gives my cheeks a natural looking glow and nice pop of color. Smooth texture and glides on evenly.

This is instant pretty!!! Just when I thought no one can teach me anything new about make up, not at all bragging but I am one of those: know it all, have it all girls.....when a professional make up artist introduced me to this on my wedding make up trial and my world was transformed.
Girls, it is life, youth, instant pretty on your face. I also own desire by nars, pink swoon by Mac and a gazillion others...and although very similar...this is the prettiest of them all and the one I wore during my wedding :)))

This looks practically neon in the package, but really goes on as a very natural looking pink shade.

Price--Bobbi Brown, so pony up.

Packaging--that price gets you her classic sleek black cases that have a nice heft. I've traveled with this blush countless times, it's been dropped onto the sink or floor more than once and I've had no issue with cracking or breaking. I took off one lippie though because I wish the surface area of the product was bigger to move the brush around in.

Product--a very natural looking shade of pink on my fair skin. (I wear her XL TM). Use a light hand and a nice fluffy brush. No sparkle either, so completely work-appropriate. I've had issues in the past with buying blushes that either don't show up, have too much shimmer or are too dark and this is none of those things. This is one of those products that you really have to try before making a decision.

I have purchased this product 3 times and it is well worth the $$$. It is pricey but lasts a long time. Perfect for summer and a hint of color in the winter. LOVE IT

I never thought I'll own a Bobbi Brown blush like this. I find it too expensive for a blush. But when I get to try this blush, I immediately felt head-over-heels for it. It gives me that natural-looking flush and it lasts the whole day on my face! :)

I have been wanting to purchase this for quite some time. I would always talk myself out of it because I already have Nars Desire which looks really similar to Pale Pink but its not even close. I am a sucker for pink blushes and really just blush in general.I am always trying to find the one. I read that Kate Middleton used Pale Pink on her wedding day so I decided to take the plunge and buy it. I have to say I have found the blush I have been looking for. This is the only powder blush I have ever used that just melts into your skin. It looks like a cream blush. It is such a beautiful natural shade. Desire just seems to sit on top of my cheeks without sinking in to the skin. My only complaint with the blush is the amount you get. It seems pricey for such a small amount. I guess I am used to Nars blushes that come with a nice amount of product. I also purchased the Pink Quartz shimmerbrick and could not believe how tiny the product was compared to the case. I will say that the products are great even with the price but dang.

Beautiful blush! Don't let the name "pale pink" fool you..I almost did and was going to buy "peony" due to its rave reviews when the Bobbi Brown mua suggested I try pale pink. I'd never have thought to try this colour as it looks so shocking, Barbie doll pink in the pan...more MAC than BB. The name pale pink does it no justice. However when she tried it on me the colour was amazing. It gave my cheeks a "just been pinched" natural flush of colour, but definately not pale...And it is easy to build up the colour. However, I probably won't repurchase because I like experimenting with different blush colours

I really like how this blush brings a pop of color to my face but somehow still looks natural. It looks scary on the pan, but it is amazing on my skin.

I actually bought this color because it looked so amazing on my friend who is much darker than me. I am extremely fair, but it really just gives me such a healthy color on my cheeks. I can't leave the house without blush because without it I look like death. This is great on it's own just on the apples of my cheeks, but usually I wear it with BB bronzer in light with Benefit Dandelion layered on top and BB Pale pink on the apples of my cheeks. BB is a true barbie pink that instantly perks my complexion up. I only use a little bit because it's so pigmented, so I doubt I will run out of this for a while.

Truly a hot colour!
i really wanted an electric pinky purple and this is exactly that!
This blush is really pigmented so a little goes along way and i like using my fingers to apply it cause it seems even when im really being light with my brush its still picks up alot of the colour! Also the case is pretty small for the cost but i love it so cant really complain...the quality is beautiful!

This is a really pretty natural looking blush. This is very similar to my current favourite blush-MeMeMe blush in Pink, but this is better in ways because it doesn't have shimmer in it so looks more natural and yet still illuminates my complexion. I love this colour and the fact its not as dark and heavy as MAC's dollymix, which I used to adore (and is very similar to Peony in this range), but now find too heavy and fake looking for my complexion now that I have paler blonde hair. A great natural looking blush for us fair skinned (NC15) Barbies!

Actually got this as a gift from a friend and it's great. All of Bobbi Brown's palette stuff are able to be popped out of their individual packs and put in travel palettes.

Pale pink looks really neon but it comes up beautifully on the skin - I'm NC25 with olive undertones and it gives a great flush.

The color is a beautiful bright pink and not what the name suggests. I just love looking at the color in the pan. The blush gives me that instant natural pop of color and even lasts after dancing salsa all nite. It looks so natural and I don`t look made up. I can use this color in the mornings for work and as for the nights, I just add some shimmer over the blush. Kinda pricey but I guess I`m paying for quality. I do like the simple packaging. I like BB`s philosophy ... she is so, to the point.

Been meaning to write a review on this little beauty for ages.. so here goes! This blush is amazing! I have to be honest and say when I got it I was pretty disappointed with the size of it - it's absolutely tiny and for £17 I did expect a little more product.. however I've had it for 3 months and barely made a dent in it!!
This is a really pretty blush - I suppose that you could say it's 'girly'. It hasn't got any shimmer in it which is fab for everyday use - although if you use a bit of macs mineralize skin finish over the top it is great for the evenings as well! Don't let the name of it fool you though, it is anything but pale pink. You literally need a TINY bit on your brush - the first time I tried it I got a bit over excited and totally over applied it - as you can imagine it didn't look great (hello clown features!) so those with a heavy hand might struggle with this one. It does last about 6-7 hours which I was pretty surprised at seeing as I have mega oily skin and most blushes last me a few hours maximum, so I am impressed!
Overall this product is great and I would buy again, however I have taken one star off for the price as it is super expensive!

This beautiful shade is bright. Almost a dupe of Lorac Pink blush but BB is a bit more sheer and I think just prettier overall. This is my new brightner over bronzer/blush. Gives a healthy glow and looks natural. Why it is called Pale Pink is questionable because it is a vivid bright pink. It's misleading. Love it.

I love when a product lives up to the hype, especially when it's so pricey:) This is a candy pink in the compact...a little scary, but it goes on so beautifully, as realy is such a perfect pink..I imagine on many skintones. I will be anxious to try it out on other tones, and see what happens.

I love this blush. Decided to go for this after reading so many good reviews about it and I'm never disappointed :)
It's a pretty bright pink. If you want a light natural blush, go light-handed. And of course, build up the color for a more dramatic, contoured look.
The thing that differentiates this from other blushes is its staying power. I have oily skin, so normally I have to use a cream blush and then top up with a powder blush in the hope that my blusher stays bit longer. I got many blushers from Estee Lauder, BeneFit, MAC, The Balm, etc but none lasts me more than 3 hours. But this pretty BB powder can really stay on my cheeks litterally the whole day. I put it on in the morning before I go to work, and it's still there when I reach back home. Amazing stuff!!!
