I like this one a lot! Though I don't like most of BE products (color changes on me and itch factor) their blushes work very well and last all day without any color change and surprisingly no itch!. I really like Secret - it's a really pretty medium lavender/pink color which looks very natural on me. It's not too bright, and can be played down by applying a finishing powder over it if you want to toned it down, though I didn't really find it necessary. But that goes for any color and blush in general. I like to first apply my foundation, then my blush, then my finishing powder, and if I need to, I'll apply a bit more blush. This gives me a nice fresh, pretty look. I think this would work very well for anyone who has a "cool" (blue based) complexion. I would definitely repurchase this one when I finish this up, in fact, I think I may repurchase it now, to have on hand.

This blush is one of my two favorites from BE (Sorbet is the other), especially in the winter when I need a bit of color in my face. I have fair skin (I wear BE Fairly Light), blue eyes, and brown hair and it's perfect for my cool complexion. Don't be intimidated by the bright color--it goes on a nice rosy pink.

This blush is just the right amount of rose for me to actually kind of like it. Normally I hate anything with any tint of pink but this one is kind of pretty. My only complaint is that loose powders are so hard to reapply during the day. You can't really just whip out your compact and do them, you have to shake it into the lid, swirl, tap, buff, etc. etc. What a hassle for a not so great item.

I tried a sample of this shade and although I LOVE Bare Escentuals, this was not the right shade for me. I've got light olive-toned skin with blonde hair and brown eyes, so I'm always somewhere in between warm and cool. I try to stick with natural shades, and this was a little too dark and purpley for me. I think it would look best on someone with darker skin. The best shade I've found is Rose Radience, (shimmery pink) which is not yet on MUA.

I've only tried this once since I bought it last weekend, but I love it. Like everyone else said, it's the perfect natural blushing rose color. I wear the fair foundation, porcelain in LM, generally the lightest or second lightest in any collection and this blush was nice and sheer, mostly matte, and didn't look clownish, which is hard for me to find. lol! 2 thumbs up!

I thought beauty blush was too bright pink for me, but after I tried Secret I am very pleased! I use fairly light and have dark hair, but no matter how minimal I was with beauty, it stil looked bright pink on me. Secret give a nice rosy look without looking like I've been slapped in the face.

I went into the BE store with the intent of purchasing Golden Gate. Instead, the SA swiped Secret on me, and I was sold. It looks like a dark rosey mauve in the jar, but goes on a very lovely sheer blushing rose color. It looks completely natural on me (I am very fair). It is very pigmented, I agree, but it does NOT apply to become the color you see in the jar...it's so much sheerer than that, and without all the shimmer of some of the others (for all intensive purposes, it's matte). I love it!

I agree. Gorgeous color that makes my NC35 skin look fresh and rosy without being too bubble gum pink.

Secret is one of the new blushes released 2004 from BE. Its a pretty cool pink with faint silver shimmer. I am an nc30 and its not too cool for me. Its a little cooler than Giddy Pink and not as shimmery. I think this color would work for anyone. Its very pigmented and the container will last forever. Retails for $18 and comes in a jar with sifter top. Really pretty color.
