I RIS and I'm so glad I did because I absolutely LOVE this color! Every EDM color I fall in love with is either a LE or is discontinued, lol, which is my luck. This is a beautiful soft pink that has some pale rose, mauvey undertones. I love that it leans towards the cool side because most of EDM's blushes, even in the pink category still contain quite a bit of peach undertones and this is the only blush I've found (besides Come What May and Pink Snowflakes) that is a TRUE pink shade.

Great for fair skinned women! It's matte, but not chalky so great for daily wear and it can be applied in layers to give more color for night wear or very lightly for a sheer wash of pale mauvey pink. Lovely.

this was such a pretty color,a pale,soft mauve.unfortunately it barely showed on my NC30 skin unless i applied quite a bit.once i got it to show up,however,it did stay quite well.RIS so i just set the price rating in the middle,i don't know how much it sells for.hate the messy packaging.the only reason i wouldn't buy this again is because it doesn't show very well,this would be beautiful on someone paler.

I just received the pressed version of this blush and I have to say I love it just as much as my other EM blushes! I was skeptical about how flattering the color would be when I saw it in the pan - it looks light almost gray lavender-pink - but don't be scared. It goes on a matte light nude pink flush - a MCBB color for me. I must say that the description on the EM website isn't accurate - they call it a light pink with a "kiss of peach" but there is no peach at all in this blush. This color is perfect for daytime wear when you want something low key that will enhance the natural color of your cheeks. Another amazing blush from EM, I can't rec. them highly enough!

I had to laugh when I read the previous review, as I completely agree! This blush stays on way longer than any other I've ever tried, including other EDM blushes...not sure why! The colour in the jar is a very cool mauve/pink but on cheeks it looks like a very natural flush...almost red but in a completely natural way. Its gorgeous! Came in the pink matte sample and I can't wait to get the full size..though the sample is extremely generous. I wish this came in the sheen version, but its no problem at all to mix a little highlighter with it. This colour looked GORGEOUS with the buttered tan (NC 30 for me) base powder....I could not stop looking at myself in the mirror! lol

I almost did not buy this blush, because pinks look good on me generally, so I'm not really looking for a pink/mauve blush. I'm glad I got it though. This is the only EDM blush that stays for hours on me. And the pink on my cheeks when I put it on looks as if it came from within. I just love it!! Wouldn't buy again as I expect this will last me a lifetime.

This is a mauvey pink. I like that its matte and my stippling brush is perfect for the right amount of color. However, I hate the packaging (such as mess!) And it doesn't have a lot of staying power.

I have sensitive skin and I do not like any fragrance in my make up. This is a pretty pinky blush wihtout the horrible sweet smell and this stays on all day; esp if you put finishing dust on top of it.

a little goes a long way!! definitely will buy the full size when I finish with this....

I got this as part of the sample kit, and it was the only blush I completely used up. The colour lasted all day unlink Summer Stroll which I also like.

This was wayyy to mauve, it's still pretty but i think instead of brightening up your cheeks it makes your face more dull. I don't like it much on my skin (I have light olive skin)

Unfortunately, this color looks very purple/muddy on my skin, not the naturally flushed appearance I was looking for. I will sometimes put a very light layer of this on my cheeks before placing a brighter one on top if I want to tone it down a bit, but by itself I think it ages my skin and makes me look tired.

I love this blush! It looks purple in the jar, but turns into a lovely, rosey/berryish color that I love. I only have a sample size but would definitely repurchase if I run out!

PS: The picture of BF above is really inaccurate, it looks almost brown there! Yuck!

VERY lavender in the container. Goes on fine, but the color isn't great for me. It's not terrible, and I'll use it now and then, just to use it up, but there are a lot better colors out there. I'm pale...but this just doesnt look good on me. One thing I LOVE about minerals though, if you have some you dont' like, or use because of the colors, get to mixing them with other things. I've made gorgeous eye shadows (blushes too!) mixing "oops!' purchases! lol

I love EDM blushes in general. They go on silkily, blend well, and really last. Best Friends is one of my perennial HGs. It's a pinky lilac that is just the color I blush. I am a PPP with very cool tones and this is just perfect. One of those colors I hope they never discontinue.

This blush looks really good on my NC30 skintone. Its looks a plumey in the packaging but on my skin, it a plumey-pink shade more to the pink side. I like to use this shade on my cheeks when I'm doing neutral eye looks because it will stand out more. I cannot use this shade with bright eye or smokey looks because they will clash- its took dark for it.

The pigmentation is great, this one will last me forever because I don't use much and the staying power is awesome. It doesn't fade nor oxidise quickly.

Since I'm pale as snow I have a very hard time finding blushes that are not too pigmented. I'm sure you've all experienced the 'hurry-to-put-on-clown-cheeks' at least once. This blush does very seldom turn out like that. Dip it, shake it, sweep across back of hand lightly and apply. A perfect, sheer flush almost every time. Though it is not entirely safe, since it is fairly heavily pigmented when brushed on in layers.

Colourwise it is just perfect for me. It mimics my natural flush quite nicely, being a mauve/pink tone neither too light, nor too dark.

The only negative thing about it is that it has a tendency to fade quickly when applied as lightly as I do.

EDITED: I try not to buy anything from EDM any longer due to certain events that have made me decide not to support this company any longer. It is not that I do not like the products I own from them, but just that I personally cannot embrace them as a company.

I chose this in the sample package, because I wanted a plum-like color. I am fair, but I am unsure of my undertone, because I can easily fall under both, but for reference I am anywhere between NC20-NW30. My neck and chest area are more yellow/olive than my face, so it makes matching even more difficult. This actually is a plus for me when it comes to blush because I can practically wear any shade on my cheeks and lips (except browns), so I cannot speak for all fair skinned gals. The blush is not extremely pigmented, which is great for those rushed days, because you cannot really mess up, but it shows up nicely...ideal for the workplace. I like to wear it when my eyes are really dramatic, so that I do not look like a hot colorful mess.
