This blush is really a good color. The fact that it is slightly sheer makes it difficult to over-apply. It is kind of a cool tone but has just a slight bit of warmth to it also. I am caucasion with light to medium skin tone. I have warm undertones but still prefer the cool tone blushes. This is really a great product and I hope it doesn't ever get dis-continued.

Flattering true matte rose-pink that's buildable while still having a nice pigmentation to it. Blends smoothly and evenly, has good staying power, and looks lovely on my cool-toned, fair skin. Worth the extra money considering the full size contains 4 grams of product which will last quite awhile.

I looked for a long time to find a good peachy-pink blush, and found it in this color. It actually looks natural unlike most and not clown or ahem, whore-like like some do. My skin is NC20 so it works perfectly. I also have Pink Pool and like that one as well but it needs a light hand.

Very pretty, natural sheer blush ... probably the best texture and shade I've ever found for everyday beautiful natural cheeks. I've been pretty devoted to Chanel blushes in the past, but have had a hard time finding a truly natural shade for my very fair complexion. Not too pink, but not peachy. Peachy pinks tend to turn orange or muddy-looking on me. This is truly the perfect HG blush for most skin tones . It is matte, but is beautifully sheer and not dry looking.

Love this color on me! I'm actually asian so I've got more tanned/golden skin, but this blush gives me natural color to my cheeks. Love the smell as well. I don't use the brush that comes with it though as it's a little stiff.

I tend to go for very pink blushes to give me a doll-like look, so when I received this shade as part of a GWP, I was none-too thrilled, but decided to give this shade a try anyway.

And thank goodness I gave this color a try because in the case, the color looks rather drab and kind of "dirty" looking, but when I tried it on, BAM! Instant light flush on my face that made me look "healthy" but not "made up."

I definitely recommend this blush. It lasts all day too, so no touch up necessary!

I got this blush as a free sample from Lancome when you spend over a certain amount. When I saw the colour, I was kind of disappointed because the colour seemed really dirty and dark for my skin tone (NC30). But when I applied this on, it turned out to be a really nice dusty pink colour! It gave a really healthy, natural glow. It looked like a natural flush instead of bright pink cheeks which is great for an everyday blush colour.
As for the application, I used Ecotool's Blush brush. I had to pack a lot of the colour onto the brush for it to show up on my skin, but because this blush is sheer, it is very hard to overdo it. The blush lasted all day and did not irritate my skin, given that I do have sensitive skin and I was quite unsure about the blush mainly because of the floral smell of it.

Overall, this blush is really nice and subtle for everyday wear. However, I would not purchase it (I got a free sample) mainly because of the price $38. I'm sure there are cheaper dupes for this colour.

I like this blush. My skin tone is light-medium, and it gives me a nice natural flushed cheeks. It's my first Lancome blush, and I can't believe how smoothly it applies for a powder blush. I don't think I'll buy this product again, because of its price. I prefer to check out another of Lancome's blushers.

I hate wearing blush because it always looks fake and clownish on me. I like to keep my makeup to a minimum also. But this really is a nice blush. It does look pinky in the case, but it is sheer as the packaging says and goes on very light which I love. This is the first blush that I have actually reached the bottom of the case and am now brushing along the edges! If you're just looking for a hint of color I'd recommend this.

This is my go to blush which is just perfect for my fair complexion. I got this blush on Christmas Eve and when a makeup artist swiped it on my face I instantly got the beautiful fresh look. Everybody at the Lancome counter was amazed, that's how this blush worked like a charm for me. It looks so natural and it has no shimmer, no sheen, or glitter. I am not even afraid to overdo with this blush, I just know that I will look so fresh, youthful, and nice. This blush gives this natural flush of freshness on my face. It comes with a brush, and I use it and I like it, it's very handy and nice. Love this blush, probably I will repurchase it over and over!

This provides a beautifully sheer pinky glow for people with pale skin particularly. Because it's sheer, it shows up best on people like me with lighter skin, but it would look okay on people with light to medium skintone as well. It is very silky smooth just like the original Blush Subtil. The only thing that prevents me from giving this full marks is the annoying brush that comes with it. I don't use it and it and the extra compartment take up unnecessary space in the compact. I prefer round compacts for travelling and to take with me during the day in my handbag. But apart from the packaging, I can't really fault this product, it really is a gorgeous blush for us pale girls!

It is a good blush. nice color for fair skin type. just one soft touch will give a healthy sunny look.
the only negative thing is the little brush it comes with-- I really hope Lacome would replace it with a softer brush.

Don't be fooled by the name of this blush. There's nothing sheer about this one. The pigments are strong so you only need to apply a little. The brush it came with is too stiff and small for my liking. I use a large Elizabeth Arden fan brush instead. The colour is great for those with fair skin. Will give you the perfect rosy cheeks. However it's too pink for my Asian skin so I always use it in conjunction with a bronzer to make it peachy. Will try a different shade next time. Update: I find the application rather streaky, and it gets even worse by midday. I definitely have to reapply or check in the mirror. I expected better from Lancome.

This is my HG blush. To me, this is the perfect pink. It is the color that I actually do blush and looks very natural on me (NC20/hazel/brunette). It's sheer and easy to blend. It is not dramatic but very subtle. If you want a blush that pops, I would keep looking. This is only slighter brighter than Benefit Dandelion on me. I also like that it is matte. I used to love NARS Orgasm but the shimmer accentuates any pores or fine lines I have. I don't have that problem with Sheer Amourose. That makes it worth almost $30 to me.

Bought this for the great GWP. Never would have picked the color myself, the salesperson recommended it. Most natural blush I've ever seen on me (NC15ish, brown hair, hazel-brown eyes). The price nearly gave me a heart attack (30 bucks for blush?), but I don't have to use much, so I think it will last a long time.

This looks absolutely beautiful in the pan. It's a medium pink with absolutely no sparkles. I asked the SA for a light pink that wouldn't look like candy cotton on me and she suggested this one. I took it home, put it on, and ... nothing. I swirled my Sonia Kashuk blush brush around on it some more (I found the one Lancome provides isn't very nice), swiped it on my cheeks. Nothing. It seemed like no matter how much I tried to build the color, there was nothing there. Being a PPP, I thought for sure this would work. Sadly, it doesn't. :( Like another reviewer said, I blush deeper than this and need something with a little more "oomph."

I have pale skin, brown/green eyes and medium (natural) blonde hair. This blush gives me nice, bright, glowy cheek and it doesn't make me break out. I hadn't worn blush for years before a make-up counter lady recommended it and now I wear blush everyday. This blush is very natural looking. I also have the cedar rose color, which is a bit more neutral but not as brightening for my skin tone. If you have sensitive cheeks, this blush is definitely worth a try.

I hate wearing blush, but this shade works well with my skin tone. It looks natural against pale skin. This blush has lasted a long long time and stays put all day.

I love this blush! It is oil-free, long-wearing, and it doesn't make me break out. And it looks so natural! It is very pale and sheer, so I only use it when I want a very natural look. Sometimes I will use it along with the Blush Subtil in Rouge Glow if I need a little more color on my cheeks for a nighttime or dressy look.
