I quite like this blush. Its a purple colour but not to strong. I am a NC40/42 in MAC foundation, I just add this to the apples of my cheeks and it gives me a great flush of colour. I would recommend this to most people to try as you can use it with a light hand and build the colour if you want it darker.

This has become one of my favorite blushes. I bought it quite recently and I am pretty fair toned, and it just looks fabulous with my dark hair. (I could see it looking good with blonde hair, too). I apply it with my Mac 109- that way I can apply the color just precisely where i want it. I really like the effect that gives. Overall, I really recommend this color- for fall and winter, especially. I would def. buy it again.

This blush is beautiful. I have a fair-medium skin tone, so it is a bit dark, but if you smooth it out, it is very pretty. I used this on top of my liquid foundation and other powders, so I found it a bit hard to even it out and smooth it out so that the colour wasn't as bold and dark. I will try this on my bare skin which I'm sure will look much better.

This is such a gorgeous blush. It's a unique color. It's a plum with what i believe is gold shimmer. It's pigmented but it blends out nicely. I'm fair skinned and use a light hand and find it works. It gives a glow and contoured look. Very polished. Like others said, it's ideal for fall

Warning on light complected girls. USE A LIGHT HAND. it can look like a bruise when done wrong

This is a wonderful blush!! It's a lovely plum colour and gives a fine shimmery glow. I find that it lasts the whole day, and it only needs to be applied with a light hand. The only thing I would say about this blush is that I use it mostly during the fall and winter. I will definitely re-purchase when it runs out.

I was out of town and I came across a Mac counter! knowing myself, it was just a must for me to check out the blushes! I saw that they had flirt and tease .. it wasn't one that I was familiar with since i haven't seen it before. I bought it thinking they only had it there. When I got back home, I went to my local mac store and they had it -______-" don't get me wrong, I like the blush.. I just don't love it. It doesn't look as dark on the skin as it does on the pan. it gives a nice purpleish shimmery color and yeah.. like I said, i like it. not in love with it.

This is a really lovely blush! At first glance, it looks like a plum that I was never use, but it comes out very sheer and shimmery (hence the product name lol). Definitely a very tasteful color

This color really caught my eye! I was originally went into MAC to look at Breath of Plum, but it was tooo red for my skin (NC30). Even though I went against what the MA recommended, I'm glad bc I wouldve been upset with Breath of Plum. I really didnt know why she recommended that one when I told her I had red undertones. This blush has leans more on the blue/purple side, but you have to be careful when applying it cuz too much makes you looked like you got socked in the cheeks! Other than that, it's suuuch a pretty winter color & that was my intent on using it. . .for winter :) I look healthy & I get that snow bitten look on my cheeks! Sooo look at this next time ur at the counter. I think its an under-dog kinda blush. But in person, it's so gorgeuous!

I bought this after seeing all the reviews on here and other forums about how great this is for asian skin... I guess, it's 'ok'. I find it a little too dark for my skin, as I'm a very pale asian, can only put a little on~ It goes on easily and is easy to apply (I use a Smashbox kabuki brush) and you only need a tiny weeny it each time so this blush will last you ages! The product texture and slight shimmer is great, I just got the wrong color =P

I couldn't decide whether to get this for the longest time... part of that may have been when I was 99% ready to buy it and then got Gentle at the last minute instead (which I love) so maybe this took a backseat somewhat. It does look dark and a bit foreboding in the pan, but it swatches a nice, medium sheer plummy pink with slight shimmer and applied lightly with a soft round brush it looks really flattering.I tend to apply it a bit further back on my cheek and then blend it forward a smidgen because applied too heavily in the middle of your face does not look so good, at least not on me. I like to layer a lighter, brighter colour right over it on the apples of my cheeks and this lifts it beautifully for daytime wear. A little bit of gold or pink toned highlighter is really gorgeous with it as well. I don't LOVE this blush yet, I have only used it half a dozen times or so but I have a feeling it will grow on me yet. It is different from any other blush I own so I'm still on the fence a bit if I'd buy it again, but leaning towards yes for now.

This is a very nice purple blush. not too dark not too light< just perfect. If I'm going for something more subtle I use plum foolery.

I got this in a swap and I never reach for it. This winter this color was in and I still never used it... But I guess if you like colors like this... you would like this but it's just not for me.

I like this color. On my NC20 skin it seems to be a good winter blush. It's definitely plummy with a slight shimmer. I'm undecided as to whether or not I would buy it again. I like it, but I don't love it.

I really like this blush. It looks scary and dark in the pan but it is quite sheer and gives me pretty pink glowing cheek. I'm NC25 for reference.
In pan it is a dark plummy pink with lots of multi-coloured shimmer. On my cheeks it looks like a neutral shimmery pink. The shimmer is quite subtle (just enough to give you glow without making you look like a glitter bomb).
I took one lippy off because the shade is not very unique and I'm sure there are lots of cheaper dupes out there. Plus MAC blushes don't stay on as long as I would like them to.

I really like this blush!! I was looking for a plum blush that wouldn't look pink on my skin. I have Breezy which is described on the MAC website as "Plum w/pearl", however on my skin it is not plum at all...it is pink. I like it, but it is not a plum. So, I went with Flirt and Teast, which is described as "Purple w/pearl"....so this shows plum on my skin and it looks great with my plum lipsticks!! But, you have to apply with a light hand....or it can go very wrong quickly! I use the 187 brush.....I am NC44/C6 btw.

This is a gorgeous plummy blush!!! you do have to use a light hand since it is quite pigmented. I gives my cheeks a cute "wintery" glow that looks like a natural flush on my NC30/C3 skintone. The shimmer in this is really not that bad and it just gives a glowing look. The color looks kind of dark in the pan with a bit of brown but on my cheeks it's not dark and turns out more of a plummy pinkish shade with a little bit of brown to give more "depth" i loves it!!

this blush looks kinda scary in the pan..but apply it using the right blush and it makes you look super gorgeous!

i tend to stay away from plummy blushes...my collection of blushes consist of pink, coral and golden brown kinda shades. i only bought this cause my friend uses this and it looks great on her..haha yes i can be a copy cat

this is by far the darkest looking blush i have....but it turns up great on me. it has glitter...does not make your cheeks look like disco ball..you might want to use a light hand with this one and build up if you want a darker looking shade.

for reference i am an olive skinned NC40 person. this shade will look great on people of different complexions..this blush gives me that just pinched/ got back from the cold kinda look.

and whats more- it lasts for ages!!! go buy this one! you wont be disappointed :)

GORGEOUS .. Totally in love with this blush .. especially during the fall and winter months when I find myself rocking plummy eyes more often.



Flirt & Tease is a sheertone shimmer blush .. so application on this is a breeze. While it is quite pigmented, the shimmer makes application more diffused and just adds the perfect plum glow to my cheeks without being over bearing. Despite being a "shimmer tone", this isn't overly frosty once applied. It just gives a very nice glow to my cheeks. Huge raves for this!!

This was my first MAC blush and I'm still in swooning over it. Flirt & Tease is a plummy purple with brown undertones and delicate shimmer. This blush is a unique color to contour with or use as a traditional blush. It's absolutely gorgeous and perfect for those in love with purples.

This is one of the blushes that I use ALL the time. I think this flatters my skin tone the most and I am so glad it's permanent.
