A lovely product but way, way to dark for my NC15 skin. I looked like a clown. Would last for years though.

I really like this, the balance and brighten irritates my skin but never had a problem with the blushes or eyeshadows. I got this in a kit a while ago and to look at it it looks way to pink and sparkley not my usual choice. But with a very light application this gives a lovely delicate pink Sheen and really defines my cheekbones and does stay put all day. I would definitely buy this on its own I've had it 9 months and barely made a dent in it so great value for money too.

This is my second Laura Geller blush and I love this one too. It is an exact dupe of MAC Stereo Rose. A rosy raspberry blush shade that looks very natural. I am fair and it is hard to find a natural looking blush on me. One of my top 3 choices of fave blushes. Great creamy powder quality product. Last forever. I love Laura Geller products. This one has a bit of sheen not totally matte.

I purchased a bunch of Laura Geller products during a snowstorm last year (LOL) and I was impressed with some, and others...not so much. This product was the latter.
When I first apply the blush it is really beautiful - a slight glow to it with just the right amount of color. A few hours later...there is no more blush to be found on my cheeks. =( I did set it with powder, but it just doesn't last. I will not buy this product again nor do I recommend it ladies!

I did not care for the blush. I have a light to medium complexion and I do not think this complemented my skin tone. There was also too much shimmer. I thought this was highly priced for just a blush and an entry level brush. I returned this.

Really nice blush. You don't need much at all and get a lovely berry glow! I went for this colour as most of the other Laura Heller blushes looked like they may not show up very well on my dark olive/tan skin tone. I don't need much of this to get a nice glow and it can be easily built up for a stronger look if required. I really like the shimmer as it gives you that glow. Overall i'm really happy with this and want to try some of LG's other blushes!! :-)

Beautiful blush. Be sure to use a light hand with this one because it can be overly shimmery if you aren't careful but when used correctly it gives the most beautiful glow. Definitely a keeper. Also looks very nice with just a hint of this layered over a matte pink or berry blush. A little pricey but I think you are paying for the ingredients and the baking process so no complaints on that. Packaging is very similar to MAC if you know how they are. Seems quite sturdy. Yes, I would buy this product again.

I received this in a swap and used it for the first time today.
I used a stipling brush to apply and it came out a gorgeous color on me & gave me a nice glow.
i used this later in the evening on my daughters before going to a halloween party, but i used a different brush and LOL they came out looking like clowns. thank goodness it was a halloween party so it wasn't so bad. i didn't read any reviews on this before i used it, so it was sheer luck on my part that i used the right brush earlier.
i see now that almost every one else has mentioned using a light hand with this :)

I love this color! A perfect pink w/ a hint of berry in it on me. Sheer when applied (though I guess this could easily depend on the brush your using to apply) but easy to build on.

This is a gorgeous blush especially for winter colorings. This Italian made baked blush imparts a delicious glow that flatters and brings a rather alluring color to the cheeks....but please use a light hand or a stipple brush to get the best effect. LOVE it.

My mum gave me a tin of this in the spring, and I've been using it off and on since then. It's a very lovely deep raspberry color, once swirled and applied, and it's extremely pigmented -- as someone below mentioned, a light hand is very necessary. The frost is enough to give a warm glow, but is not spastic or overly shiny/sparkly. I have med-fair (neutral-cool) skin which tans deeply in the summer. This is great when I'm pale but it's outright gorgeous when I'm tanned. Between the bronzing effect and the berry shade it's precisely the color I get after spending a day in the sun. I like it very much and I'd certainly repurchase, however I use such a miniscule amount each time that I can't imagine ever needing to replace it.

Having grown weary of the daily Bare Minerals mess applying True, I picked up Blush N Brighten in Berry--the lightest of the blushes--and have been pleased. It took a few days getting used to, as True has more shimmer and far less pigment than the Laura Geller Berry. True also has glitter, which Berry doesn't have.
For me, without foundation Berry can look a little too rosy (I'm a BM Fairly Light in winter; Medium Beige in summer), and don't like blushes that scream "blush," which is why in the past I've stayed clear of them.
However, over foundation, which tones down the bit of natural ruddiness in my cheeks, I swipe my brush once on each cheek with Berry, and voila, delicate sheen and the glowy skin that looks lit from within. Berry also works well as an eyeshadow, particularly for the evening.
The staying power is good. The packaging is underwhelming: chintzy plastic and bulky. The price is higher than I'd like, but you do get a lot of product.

I actually love MAC blushes, but I wanted to try something new. I bought the LG baked basics collection for $50 USD - it included mini (.06 oz, which sounds small but will probably last me a year or more since I won't wear it everyday) versions of the balance n brighten, bronze n brighten and blush n brighten (bnb) in BERRY. The packaging is very similar to MAC blushes if you are familiar with that which I like and the writing on the bottom to ID the product easily in your MU bag was big and clear.
First off, I like (not love) all the products and will continue to use to see how I can incorporate with my other make up. The kit came with a brush (similar to a small kabuki) which i do not like so far - very hard and stiff. it did not evenly distribute the MU and it just didn't feel good on my skin. It did come in a cute tiny carry case though that i liked.
Specifically, my berry bnb has iridescent light pink, bronze and plum colored shades in it. I use a BE flawless radiance brush to apply b/c you really have to apply with a light hand otherwise you will look like a clown. i guess this is good b/c it means the blush is highly pigmented and it will last a long time - but just make sure to look at yourself in natural light if possible before you go out to make sure you don't look stupid.
The product lasts on my cheeks all day and it maintains that rosy blush with a golden glow I was looking for. I've also used as an e/s and it looked very pretty. I do like this product and intend to keep the kit, however, i will never need to repurchase b/c i won't use this often enough. I'll review the other products too.

I love all of her blushes. This one has purple tones, pink tones, and some bronze in it. It gives your cheeks a good natural looking color when you swirl it together and put it on. The price wasn't too bad, and it's worth it, which is why I gave it a three (about average.) I would definitely buy this again, and I'm going to have to. It also gives just a little bit of subtle sparkle.

I wanted to love this blush. It does make it look like I am glowing. I might buy it in a different color next time. This is very very berry...too pink for my face. Too much shimmer too. Also, the mirror broke out of the compact within a month so I took one lippie off of the packaging.

this is a pretty color. very highly pigmented and very berry on the skin. it's a hard one to work with because you have to use a very light hand otherwise you'll look clownish. it leaves a nice sheen due to the gold frost veins throughout. did i mention you have to use a light hand with this one? i'll give it a couple of tries, but if it continues to be difficult, back it goes. i have other berry blushes that are easier to work with.

This is a great blush. Has a bit of shimmer to it. Consists of a light pink, dark pink and bronze color swirled together. Colors have a bit of shimmer but nothing over the top. This blush is a good color for me and has been something I could wear both summer and winter. I have not been able to do that with my other blushes before. My only complaint is the price. For me it is a bit on the expensive side but would not keep me from repurchasing.

This is the only berry or red-hued blush I own. With fair skin and blonde hair, nothing spells hooker barbie like bright red swatches on one's cheeks, so I generally avoid it. However, this blush gives me a really nice reddish flush, which (I think) looks completely natural, a la crisp air and cool temperatures. The key to this blush is to use a VERY light hand, at least for my coloring. I use so little of this that I can't even see it on my brush after swiping. I also think it looks better on the apples of the cheeks than all over, as a bronzer or a contour color. Really think it gives you a flush comparable to a cheek tint.
EDIT: nope, can't do it. Broke out horribly after using a couple days, and know it was this because it was the only place I broke out. darm.
