My face is pale and this colour does make me look more fresh. I use it a quite bit only and brights up inmediately my face. Would love love love to buy this colour again.

Deep matte peachy pink blush that gives a believable flush on my skin, and I don't need a lot of product to get noticeable color payoff. If you like Bobbi Brown's "Pale Pink" blush, give this one a try because I consider it the peach alternative. Bobbi Brown's powder blushes have the perfect smooth texture and they truly appear to melt into the skin.

Nectar did not give me a "pop" but rather gave me a nice flushed look. I m a no.2 for Dior Forever foundation. I used to prefer peachy nude color as I was tan before but recently due to the colder weather, I found myself using more of Nectar as it looks as if im blushing rather than having put colors on my cheek.

This is a very pretty peachy-pink color but if you're fair like me (Clinique Alabaster) then all you need to do is tab your brush ONCE into the pan and lightly brush it on your cheeks. I will get much more use out of this in summer because it makes me look like I have a summer glow! I cannot explain how much I love it!! I've gotten to the point where I look forward to putting it on in the morning! I have oily skin and I go to school so I'm constantly rubbing my face out of frustration and at the end of the day I can still noticeably see it! I don't even use a primer or set it! Bobbi Brown has really been impressing me so much I may even buy the shimmer brick to match this blush!

This is beautiful! On my NW40 skin, it's a healthy pop of pink that helps to brighten up my entire face. It is rather expensive for a blush, but it is the most versatile blush in my collection.

The color for this is gorgeous. It's a blend of some pink/mauve/coral. I don't know how to describe it but it gave my fair skin a healthy flush. Wish it was bigger for the price. It's a nice color and gave my skin a rosy glow. The color lasts at least 6 hours during the day. The compact for BB is a bit plain looking and doesn't include a brush so that's my complaint.

My go-to blush. It is a peachy pink that looks totally natural with my fair neutral complexion. This blends in with every lip colour, eye colour and season. It isn't my only blush but it is the one I can count on every time. I consider it an evolution of Nars Orgasm because it has the same pink/peach balance but without shimmer and it has much more colour pay off.

This is the best blush for anyone who likes very pigmented matte blush. A little goes a long way and it lasts forever! I hate the fake shiny/frosted blush. This is the perfect pinky/peach/coral color that goes well with medium or tanned skin.

Great blush if you're looking for a pop of color. I went into Bobbi Brown looking for a bright color for my cheeks and this was recommended. Never disappoints and I love the fact that its matte.

Love the colour! Natural, smooth finish. Great colour for younger people like me as it bring out the glow in our skin instead of making it dull.

Great color. Warm, but not too orangy. Highly pigmented as all the BB blushes, so a light hand is necessary.

Great color on - looks freaky in the pan but if applied with a light hand it looks great, like a nice flush. Like all Bobbi Brown blushes its really good quality and is easy to apply. Good for someone who wants something with a little bit of kick but not too much - esp since there's no glitter.

My HG blush! A SA suggested this to me and I was hesitant--it looks warm and more coral than pink in the pan than it looks when applied. I'm NW20 and hate things that are too warm, but I gave this a try and I'm thrilled that I did.


This is well pigmented but easy to apply without being too much or OTT. It's a gorgeous pinky-coral color without any shimmer. It lasts all day either over foundation or bare skin. A little goes a long way--you don't need much to get a pretty light flush. I've worn this regularly for over a year now and have barely made a dent in the pan.


I absolutely love this. PPPs: do not be afraid to try this. It has become a staple in my m/u bag.

The shade is gorgeous on the pan, and it does look nice of the cheeks. But unremarkable. Nothing that wow's me at all. Just a regular blush that's good for both warm and cool skin tones. This fades however, after a couple of hours. I've worn this 3x then I've sticked this onto my makeup case never to be used again. I won't re-purchase.

This blush color is the exact same color that I blush.... I have always been searching for the wrong blush colors; mostly cool pinks and plums, since I am super fair with cool undertones. I originally bought this for someone else, and it didn't look right on them. The first few times I tried it, I used a typical domed blush brush - big mistake for my skin color. It applied way too heavily, and I looked like a clown. I didn't realize how pigmented Bobbi Brown's blushes are.... I found this old tiny little fan brush in my drawer (super soft bristles), and decided to give it a whirl. Well...it applied perfectly. Gave me beautifully flushed cheeks, in the exact same color I flush. What's most amazing is that this blush lasts all day (and my skin is fairly oily too)! I only apply a little. I'm really impressed. I'm curious to try out other colors....

Bobbi Brown blushes are extremely pigmented, so I have to be VERY careful applying it. Nectar is a beautiful color, very natural, but if you use it heavily it would, without a doubt, make you look crazy.

This blush is my new favourite, go-to blush. I have been searching high and low for a blush that is MATTE. I don't like blushes with shimmer because I notice that they never seem to last on my cheeks. A night out with my boyfriend and the shimmer is on his cheeks more than mine!
This blush stays on all day and night and gives me a beautiful rosy glow on my cheeks...a sales associate at BB suggested this color to me and I am loving it. I was a little paler than and just got back from vacation and I was worried that this color would not look good on my tan...but I was wrong...it looks every NICER with tanned skin!! I'm soo excited because I can use this year-round! I've been using it at least 4-5 times a week and I've had it for a 2 months now and it doesn't look like I've made a dent! The sales associate let me know that these blushes will last you a LONG time...and so far...she's right! Unless I discover something else...I will definitely be using this until the end of time!

This blush is incredible. It's extremely finely milled and applies and blends almost effortlessly. It looks insanely bright in the pot yet applies naturally. Unlike the reviewer below me, however, the color is not good for my fair, cool skin. It has too much of a reddish tone and it makes me look burnt or overheated as opposed to naturally flushed. It's definitely a warm pink on me - too warm.
If you have neutral to warm fair skin, it will probably look like a perfect flush on you. If you have fair, cool skin, try Apricot or Pale Pink. They'll give you that flush, but they won't turn reddish on you.
BB blushes are $22 and worth every penny. They're amazing and they'll last for years.
