Shade description: soft pink

Pros

- long wearing
- pigmented
- subtle glow

Cons

- price

Comments: I'm an NC37 for reference and surprised this shade worked for me. It's a nice everyday pink that gives the skin a subtle glow. This line of blushes are great quality.

FYI: the kind of brush you use will make a huge difference in how this or any product for that matter, will show up. I can see this being very sheer, though the brush I use applies a good amount of product.

Will repurchase.

It adds shimmer to my brighter pink blush that doesn't have any so i like that because it is not pigmented all that much and it doesn't take away from my brighter pink. But when i tried being lazy and only using this blush I could not get any pigment what so ever and I'm not dark skinned I'm fairly light to medium tone, depending time of the year. I will not buy this specific color again i may try a different shade when i run out since i use it for shimmer.

My HG blush! I have fair skin and this is my favorite blush! It is very smooth looking on the skin with small silver glitter. It looks very smooth on the skin and has a peachy pink hue to it.

The blush itself is pretty good, blends well, not too much color or too little. Doesn't cause any breakouts or allergies. This particular shade is great for fair skin with pink undertones. It's not a sexy color, but great for everyday to add a little color and glow.

This blush is a pretty color, light pink with slight shimmer. I don't think the shimmer is noticeable at all in indoor lighting, but one time I was outside with my friend on a sunny day and she asked me if I had sparkles on my face....but that's the only time anyone has commented on it. I appy with a light hand because sometimes it can almost appear too dark or red or something. It lasts a good amount of time and adds a pretty flush to my face. I like the soft finish, and I might buy again if I don't find anything within the same price range that is better.

I couldn't go a single day without wearing this blush color! I love that it is so easy to blend into my skin, making it really easy to go from lots of color to a slight tint on my cheeks. The color is really versitile and smooth going on. I'll be buying this product over and over again!

This blush provides you with a good amount of product. However, you will need A LOT of product to even get it to show up. I have fair skin and I could not get the baby blossom to show up, the more I packed on the more shimmery it looked. I will not be repurchasing.

Baby blossom is a pale shimmery pink-peach blush.it's got shimmers but when blended,it becomes an almost satin finish. In the light,you can see the shimmers! Verry pretty! I use it alone or paired with tender rose blush. It brings just enought color to complete that bronzy-glowy look! I use either a brush or my fingers to obtain that satin finish! Love it!

I love the color, I bought this as a dupe to my hg, benefit's dandelion.

Unfortunately the color fades very quickly, and despite its name, it does not blend all too well.

I'd buy this again if I could figure out how to make it last!

As other reviewers have mentioned, this is close in color to Benefit Dandelion, & I agree with that except in my personal opinion, I like it a little better than Dandelion just because it's slightly more pigmented. I'm neutral leaning warm complected & quite fair(If I wore MAC I would be about NC15, N10 at my lightest) This is a blush from the TrueMatch line, and marketed for the "cool toned pale/C1-2". But after I tried the shade marketed for the "warm toned pale"(Bare Honey is the shade name) I definitely prefer this!! (Bare Honey actually works better for me as a bronzey/contour product vs. a blush)
Being quite fair though, it's easy for me to look either clown-ish or washed out in many blushes if I'm not careful. Thankfully this is one that never gives me issues, always looks flattering and I stray at times, but continue to come back to. This blush has nice pigmentation, but at the same time I find it hard to go overboard with (if that makes sense?) If I apply a little too much, it still looks natural which is a plus. But if you're looking for "va va voom, in your face" kind of cheeks from a blush, then this would not be the one for you... I find it to be best as a daily, "no makeup while wearing makeup look".
My skin also oily & acne prone, and this has good staying power on my oily skin and does not break me out. (Two BIG things that I have to have in a blush of course ;D) Those 2 things along with the fact that this gives a beautiful, natural glow, I'll always come back to it and rate it 5 lippies all the way! :)

this blush is easy to pick up and very easy to blend. however it does not show on my medium skin. I have to layer it a lot to make it show a little bit. it does not stay long neither. by the end of the day it's pretty much gone. I was looking for a peach or coral color but all the color they have seem too dark. Seems to me their true match line makeup are for people with fair skin tone. since i can't find a color i truly like, I will not purchase again.
but this product is pretty good thou. for the price and for the size.

I don't use this as a blush but rather as an all over beauty powder. It is a dupe of Benefit Dandelion which I also own. I keep Danedlion at home and Baby Blossom in my office makeup kit.

This powder gives a beautiful all over healthy glow.

Love, love love this for us fair skinned girls.

I purchased this blush because I noticed i was overapplying my other blushes and I thought with this, given it's pale pink shade, I would be less likely to do so. I bought both this and Benefit Dandelion, for the same reason. However, I ended up returning Dandelion because I honestly could not tell the difference between the two (in fact, I liked this one more) and I preferred the ease of use with this one (I did not like Dandelion's box packaging). Nevertheless, the packaging for this could be a tad more attractive, but I decided not to let that effect the rating because the color is so amazing. I also liked that it was a third of the price of the comparison product for the same look. In the reviews I have read, I never heard this blush noted as a dupe for Dandelion, and I am not sure that it is a dupe per say, but appears to me to be the same beautiful, sheer pink, is not too shimmery, has a nice texture, is easy to apply and wears well. Best of all-- I have never overapplied! I notice it on me, but it looks natural and pretty. I now reach for this more than my other blushes. Very satisfied.

I love this, it gives a really pretty baby pink flush to my fair skin tone :) Perfect for school, I dust a little on to the apples of my cheeks and blend it out- I would repurchase!<3

I've been wanting this for awhile. Mainly because I didn't have a light pink blush and this was readily available & had great reviews. It seems fine, I don't really notice it much but I have gotten used to bold blushes (Stila CC in Petunia, etc). But certain lip colors call for a light blush & this one seems fine. lol
There was quite a bit of shimmer in the pan that I didn't notice other reviewers mentioning.

I'm fairly pale so I needed a blush that wouldn't cause me to look like a clown. L'Oreal True Match blush in Baby Blossom (C 1-2) is the perfect shade of pink to give my cheeks a flush of color but isn't so pigmented that I end up with bright pink cheeks. It's fairly blendable and you can build up the color decently. My only complaint was the price. It's a bit expensive, in my opinion, for a drugstore blush. Overall, I'd recommend it to anyone with fair skin who just wants a nice flush of pink. I will definitely be repurchasing when I run out.

This blush is one of the better budget blushes. It doesn't look chalky, and doesn't oxidize to a strange orange tone when worn on oily skin. It has a very, very minimal amount of shimmer - nothing that would show up sparkling in direct sunlight. The powder is milled well and has never been gritty.


The budget aspect of this blush is a bit of a trade-off. This is not a heavily pigmented product, which makes it very user-friendly. You would have to layer and layer in order to approach the dreaded 'clown face' look. However, unlike Nars or a more color saturated product, you do have to have more on your skin in order for the color to appear. I've bought this blush many times, and generally I go through about 3 pans of this blush throughout the course of a year. Nars blush, which costs about 3x as much, lasts at least a year. If you're new to makeup and application and need to refine your technique, this is a good fit. Otherwise, I've found that a more pigmented product is usually worth your money.

I love this blush -- not only is it a pretty, baby pink, I do not have to be super careful when I'm applying it! I'm very fair, and with a lot of my more heavily pigmented blush shades, I have to be careful to use a very light hand when applying. Baby Blossom, however, is so lightly pigmented that it's almost impossible to overdo it. It adds a barely perceptible touch of color to my complexion -- perfect for a quick touch up!


For reference, NW5-10 / NARS Siberia.

I wouldn't call this blush my HG but it is the only one I've bought three times, so I guess it's the closest I've found so far. This is a great everyday, barely there kind of blush that goes with pretty much every look. It's the lightest shade in the cool toned section of the L'oreal true match blushes and really does work on my NC20 skin. This blush is super finely milled and silky, not super pigmented but not so unpigmented it won't show up either. It's pretty much goof proof, there's almost no way you could pack too much on and give yourself clown face early in the morning in bad bathroom lighting ;-) Although it looks like it has tiny silver sparkles in the pan it goes on completely matte as far as I can tell. Overall this is my go to blush and although it doesn't blow me away it's a staple worth having while the hunt for the HG contiues.

I like this blush as a touch-up to keep at work. (Ironic, since some folks commented on how it doesn't last.)

For me it's the perfect solution when my blush has faded or if I didn't put enough on to show up in my fluorescently-lit office.

It's a very neutral pink, cool but not so blue that I can't wear it with my yellow-toned skin. It probably won't show up on darker skins but I am pretty fair, and also I'm wearing it on top of whatever is left of my other product(s) and it does well over no matter what color I started out wearing when I left the house. I've never actually noticed the sparkles.

A very good value, also, and the nice size makes it easy for me to pick up what I need with a big fluffy brush.
