A nice plummy pink. I tried it on in the store, but when I got home, I couldn't get the same effect it had on me in store. Also, it was a little hard to blend out; I often ended up with a very intense blush look.

I received a MAC gift card from my boyfriend since he got it in Dirty Santa last year (lucky for me!) I finally used my gift card a couple of months ago and I decided to get this blush with it. I'm usually a drugstore girl since I'm in college and can't really afford higher priced make up. I'm glad I got a chance to get this blush from MAC because I love it!

It's really pigmented, which I kind of hate and love. For me, it's easy to go overboard with it. When I first wore it my boyfriend said I looked like I had a fever. I probably only do three swipes of it and it looks really natural, like I just got in from the cold.

The only gripe I have with this blush is that it comes off of my face within a few hours. It looks blotchy after a while. I have Candid Coral from ELF and, surprisingly, it stays on longer on my face than Mocha. I just like Mocha better since it feels smoother and it's matte. Overall, I probably would purchase this again if I had the money.

This blush is a lovely colour, and quite pigmented. If you are pale like me, I recommend layering the product very finely, because it can be a bit overpowering if you use too much (although it is fixable by blending out).

However, unfortunately, MAC blushes just DO NOT LAST on my skin. I don't know *how*, (I don't have this problem with any other brand), but MAC blushes just fade after a few hours! Therefore, I have given up on them

A nicely pigmented blush that leaves a flushed, heated pinkish red hue on my C4/NC30 light-tanned Asian complexion. I have to use a very light hand since this blush is surprisingly pigmented, otherwise it veers into red, ruddy, feverish territory. But with the right feathery touch using my Nars Yachiyo brush or MAC 116, it adds a natural blushing color to my cheeks. I find I go overboard too easily with this shade so don't use it that often, but that's my heavy hand to blame, not this blush's fault!

Wow! I am amazed. Now I think I know why the MAC blushes have such a high rating. I never thought I would apply blush everyday. This applies lightly just two strokes and there is a natural hint of color. I wore this for the third consecutive day and don't feel like I have a ton of make up on. It has definitely become part of my routine.

The shade is great for everyday wear. Building up the product doesn't make it look loud. and it suits almost every lip and eye color. I love it. Will definitely repurchase.

I've been using this product for years. I like it . The color is hip and classy at the same time. I don't use blush a lot so I wouldn't really buy it again. I've had it since eighth grade and I'm in 12th right now. It's still full of the product! If you use blush a lot I suggest you buy it.

I'm really enjoyn this blush...I've had it for abt a wk now and used it everyday since....on my cheeks its a muted rosey color very subtle & natural, the matte formula is also a huge plus....I just don't like much or any shimmer/glitter in my blushes R on my cheeks....this did take a couple of swipes with my TF Kabuki brush to show up, I don't mind cause once built up to the desired color I want its pretty much on all day with very minimal touch up...I've touched up once daily when I wear this blush...in all its a great buy & will work for any skintone I believe!!!

This Mocha Powder blush (matte) is gorgeous. Too deep in tone for me just now, however.

I'm a very fair, cool (meaning I've a b/r undertone), neutral complected, blue-eyed, med. blonde. More fair than MAC NW15. (Think NW7, say?) The late Prescriptives line almost got it right with their Camellia. L'Oreal "true match" in n1 is too dark and too warm; while c1 is too dark and peach. Once upon a time, Lancome offered Maquicontrole Fond de teint liquide in Porcelaine. Perfect.

I'm looking for a blush that adds subtle color to these cheeks, and enhances the sparkle in my eyes. Nothing dramatic, just fresh. Suitable for wear with pretty much any lip/eye palette.

Mocha will be an excellent dress-up, elegant color for me in the fall/winter. Think I'll try MAC's Blushbaby next for the summer.

Best!

I bought this today and I really like the colour. I have quite fair skin and freckles and wanted something natural. The colours is just what I wanted. It looks like a dark, cold pink in the pan, but is far more peachy when you put it on. So it's a nice warm pink on the skin. I have only tried it one day so I don't know how long it will last. However, I love that it's not super-matte, but has a nice subtle shine.

I've looked at this color over the years, and tried it here and there, but it always seemed to orange and dark. I gave it another shot recently, because I'm desperate to find a blush that doesn't look ridiculous on me and is matte (I react to shimmer). If I use an extremely light hand, I liked it okay, but it can go red pretty fast on me. I love Pinch O' Peach which is the lighter, more sheer, more pink version of this.

This is my everyday blush. It's matte for my oily skin & it goes well with a tan. This is a mistake-proof blush. You can literally just throw it on & it will still look great. It also lasts throughout the day & doesn't cause breakouts. I highly recomend for medium to tan skin tones.

A very buildable color. Despite being called "Mocha" I didn't find any sort of brown coloring. On my cheeks it becomes a lot more pink than it looks in the pan. It's pretty long lasting, but it definitely fades throughout the day.

I've only received this blush yesterday and worn it today, but I can already tell it is my new HG blush.
I'm a NC25 to NC30, olive skin.
I put on a little bit of this in the morning before i left for work (used a 129 brush), I was very cautious not to be too heavy handed, blended a little bit with the same brush.
At lunch time, I went to check my makeup to see if it needed a touch up (usually when i'm wearing one of my 2 other fave blushes, which are Nars orgasm and Mac blushcreme in lady blush, i'm left pale faced). But with this, it held up until i got off work. Not gonna lie to you, i was super impressed.
The colour it gives on my skin is very natural, if you apply it lightly. Since it's a matte finish, you should be careful not to pile it on. With NARS Orgasm, I would swirl and swirl my blush brush and pile it on to get some colour payoff, and then 2 hours later i was left with nothing but a little bit of glitter on my face, no colour, even though I have dry skin on my cheeks. I still like NARS Orgasm though, and i'll try to finish the one i have, but I LOVE Mocha.
Definitely recommend this, and will repurchase when i eventually run out (although i predict it will be in a long long time).

this is my second blush from MAC...and it's gorgeous :)
the first one was desert rose which i felt was amazing till i used this one!! It's a beautiful pink-peach color and looks very natural. It is highly pigmented so a little goes a long way. I apply it with my #116 blush brush and it works wonders! This blush is fabulous if applied correctly. i would love to purchase this blush again, but only if i run out of it which i doubt will happen coz I still havent ran out of 'desert rose' which i was using since a year! MAC matte blushes are surely a winner!

One of my first blushes....this is still something I reach for when I'm super rushed and don't want to have to be careful of too much pigmentation and if it'll clash with the rest of my makeup. Mocha is super natural looking and neutral.
For reference, I am NC37, Asian, dry skin

OMG this is my all time favorite blush. I wear it almost everyday and it suits my skin tone extremely well. I love the fact that it is matte finish so it doesn't make me look super oily!
bottom line: go buy this blush

A beautiful, everyday neutral blush. In the container, the color is like a dusky, warmed-up rose with a very slight hint of plum. On my nc37 complexion, it appears more as a medium peachy-pink which is the exact color of my natural flush. Although the formula is matte, it goes on sheer without looking cakey but can be built upon. I find that one swipe with a blush brush is all I need during the day without looking too done up. It's a very understated color; perfect for those who are not used to wearing bright blushes.

Let's put it this way, if I blush naturally, it looks as if I wore this blush. It is very natural and very subtle. It is totally buildable and spreads well not patchy like other blushes. I am NC 30 and this is definitely a keeper....

This is the very first MAC blush that the makeup artist suggested for me. I wasn't too sure about the color, it was my first time getting a rosy blush. I love how it looks on me, very natural looking if you apply lightly. I love the color. It does fade during the day tho, i think my milani in mai tai lasts longer than that. It just gives you a very natural look. i will buy again.
