I don't know if it is because i got a faulty one, but i found mine to have barely any pigmentation at all! I literally have to rub my finger in it to get some sort of colour pay off. The colour is a nice pink with a silver sheen from what I could gather from a heavy swatch. I'll try to make it work every now and again but its too much effort. Overall, fairly disappointed with this blush.

I love this blush, I use it everyday! It's not as an intense pink as it appears to be, but I don't mind that at all because it looks so natural. it goes on sheer and also has a nice shimmer to it, so you don't even need to use a highlighter. I'm not a big fan of the stubby brush provided though. Overall, excellent product and I will def buy again (:

I do like this blush color a lot. The color is a light pink. It is not as intense and I hoped, but it is buildable and very pretty. There is a slight silver shimmer that goes great with my skintone. The shimmer helps "highlight" my cheekbones, so i don't need to add a highlighter.
I like the color a lot, but wish it were a little more pigmented. As others have said, it does remind me of Nars Orgasm, but a little more pink instead of the coral color.
I usually wear a more pigmented pink on my cheeks, and then swipe this one over it, because I love the soft silver shimmer inside.

I usually have a love/hate relationship with Maybelline blushes just because they tend to be very sheer and chalky. However, I love this color! It is a beautiful bright pink but don't let that scare you! It does not come off that scary. It is buildable and adds the perfect pink color to my cheeks (NC25). It is quite pigmented and I love how soft it is. The color is very natural with a little bit of silver shimmer. I paid like $2 for it! This is definitely the best Maybelline blush I have ever tried! I would not repurchase it just because I know one pan will last me a long time.

This is a beautiful colored blush, and I love that it has a slight shimmer to it. I think it is very similar to nars orgasm. I get compliments on this blush all the time. I have been using the same pan for about a year now which is pretty impressive in terms of how long its lasted. Also the product lasts on my face all day. Def repurchase

This blush is just OK for me. The colour, pinch o pink, is a nice, light pink that goes on my fair skin quite nicely. I don't remember how much I paid for this one, but I think it was pretty decent. I've never had a problem with the packaging, and I think I've actually dropped this one before and the blush didnt crack, crumble, or fall out. Obviously I've never touched the little brush that comes with it, so that part is pretty useless, but I guess it's a nice touch in case you don't have your makeup brushes for whatever reason.
There is nothing wrong with this blush, but there are other blushes I prefer, so I don't think I will be repurchasing this one.

I bought this about a year ago and I still have some left surprisingly. I love the pink shade its pretty bright and is perfect for summer. It blends well with any bronzer so you can create a really nice contouring look. It comes with a little brush but I threw it away because its a piece of crap. The blush is great just dont keep it as long as I did because it does get a little dry and starts to crumble. All in all, great blush, goes on really nice and great price. I think I payed 4 bucks for it at Walmart.

Like the previous reviewer I picked this up at walgreens for $2.99 for it looked like a pretty shade. I was thinking that it was going to be super bright but it's not at all. I'm a NW 20 and this isn't over the top at all but it gives me a natural pink flush. I'm guessing that this is being disc. but if it isn't I'll buy again when I run out.

I picked this up for $2.99 because Walgreens was having a sale. Usually I use benefit box powders are NARS blushes but I figured it wouldn't hurt my wallet too badly if I hated it. And I really didn't hate it at all! It's a lovely pink color and I love this blush. I use it for an everyday look for school, and use my pricier, more intense blushes for going out at night. For the price, this blush was great. Used my own blush brush though, threw away that dinky thing it came with!

This is a great blush! In the pan it appears to be a bright pink with just a hint of shimmer. I wasn't sure if the pink would show up on my medium skin, but surprisingly, it doesn't take a lot for it to give me a healthy-looking flush. It's really perfect for winter or summer.

Don't bother using the brush it comes with though -- use an actual blush brush.

I bought this shade of blush because it is popular on Youtube and because it was on sale for $5CAD. I do not usually use pink blushes because I think that many do not look good on my light olive toned skin. So I took a chance with this one and I actually do like it. This is my first Maybelline blush, and I like the texture of it. It is not too soft or too hard and it picks up easily on my brush. I do not think the shimmer is too over the top, I think it makes the complexion look more luminous, not like a disco ball shimmer. It looks like a bright neutral pink in the pan (not too cool or too warm toned) with silver shimmer. However, when you apply it and buff it out on your cheeks it is not too bright. I think that this will work well on many different skin tones.

I absolutely love this blush color. It's a very subtle light pink, similar to benefit coralista, except that coralista has more of a peach undertone, while this is a pure pink.

The shimmer is very slight, so I don't understand why people are going crazy about that.

It does fade a little, but it's not too bad for a drugstore blush. Overall, I really like it. It's a great color for my NC25 skin, and just adds a nice, healthy glow to my face.

i like this because it does exactly what the name promises: a "pinch o pink"! especially if you use the brush included, it'll give a sheer pop of pink on your cheeks that's not overbearing. It has shimmer but I don't think it has that much of it, which is good. overall, if you're going for natural pink tones, then this is perfect.

RIS nice pink color that shows up on my NC35 skin. I usually use this for my everyday look and top it off with NYC creme blush just to make it pop even more every since i got it. This is a nice blush for the spring and summer. :D

I picked this up from Walgreens on a BOGO1/2, $4 full price. For reference, my skintone is NW05 (M.A.C code for nearly albino with pink undertones). My current HG blush, is Hard Candy's Living Doll. Did this blow Living Doll out of the water? Hell no. However I will give it 4 lippies, because it IS a beautiful blush. The shade is a cool toned light pink and it has SLIGHT shimmer. Not enough to be obvious, yet enough to give you a little glow. I would repurchase, seeing as the lasting power, quality, color, & price are above average.

I love this blush. I do not use the brush it came with though. It looks amazing and makes my cheekbones look godly! What can I say? I love Maybelline! I would fully recommend this :)

I love this blush! It does exactly what its name says, gives my cheeks a nice little pinch of pink. I am v-e-r-y fair skinned, and this works wonderfully on me. It isn't overbearing and obvious like most other blushes, and it lasts all day for me.

THIS WENT BACK THE NEXT DAY I BROUGHT IT!! ABSOLUTELY NO COLOR ON ME WHATSOEVER!!! I’m fair skinned, not even tanned yet, and this did not show up on me at all. Not even after like applying a lot to the point that I would have looked like a clown had it have been a real blush!

This pink is perfect! The color is not to cool and not too warm. It has no shimmer and is matte in texture. The blush lasts all day on my face. I love how inexpensive this is; there's no fancy packaging and no mirror compact that would raise the cost of production and hence the price. I also like that it contains no FD&C coloring, which would make it dangerous to use near the eyes, so you can use this anywhere. I will keep buying this as long as Maybelline makes it.
