I'm not much of a blush wearer- I think it looks great on some women but on me it often makes my face looks cluttered. BUT, that said, I find that a very light soft dusting of True on my cheeks gives a delightful healthy glow. I tap some into the palm of my hand, swirl my second biggest brush over my palm, and gently swipe my cheeks and I like it. I really like the Bare Escentuals product texture and quality - excellent pigmentation so a little goes a long way, and it's very blendable, far more so than a blush in a compact. I really think that BE is a good line, but would add this thought: the line is going to work best when you use good brushes. Cheap brushes are not going to give you a good result with this product, or any product really.

I purchased the Mineral Blush in Bronze and I love it! It's a warm sunny tone with a bit of shimmer. I blend it over my forehead and cheeks...It gives my light/medium Asian skin a nice glow. Use sparingly...or the shimmer can build up a little too much.

I *love* BE blushes! True is my fave, it's a gorgeous peach pink with lots of shimmer in it. They go on smooth and fine, and actually last through the day.

I love these blushes! They provide a sheer wash of color and last throughout the day. I like mixing them with my lipbalm to give me a color coordinated look.

I already reviewed Glee (which I use as a blush) but I recently acquired Thistle, which is also absolutely gorgeous. You need so little of this product to give yourself a nice glow. I'm enjoying these immensely.

This is the best blush. Such a selection of colors to choose from. I own Thistle, Glee, Warmth, Golden Gate, Amused rouge and beauty. I love all the colors and they seem to work well on all skin tones.

I have this blush in Sorbet, which is a dusty rose color. It does look scary dark in the pot, but it goes on very softly. I really love this blush - I'm very fair and it gives the perfect amount of color. The only downside is that it's a little hard to apply. I use the bare escentuals blush brush and make sure to tap off excess.

This blush will last you forever and a day, but it is messy and really takes some practice. I have used BE for years, go back to it, then try something else, etc. It is still IMO one of the best mineral foundations. It just takes a very tiny, tiny amount, it is highly pigmented. Once you master the technique, it's gorgeous. The colors are all very natural looking. I just prefer my Nars and Cargo when I am in a hurry.

I got this blush in Beauty, a soft rosy pink shade that gives your skin a beautiful flush. BE quality is outstanding. THe only down side is the messiness of loose powder! This is a very nice blush that is long lasting as well. I highly recommend it!
*update* I have since purchase several more BE blush shades and love them. Great selection of colors and these last all day. Retails for $18.

I am in love (or at least I look like I'm in love) when I wear these! So natural looking! My favorites are Sorbet (nice innocent look) and Glee (a little more sun-kissed and sexy). They both have Nars Orgasm beat, which I also have and enjoy!

I love this blush (and the whole BE line!) I have sorbet, which looks like a wicked bright pink in the jar but goes on soft. It's a perfect shade for us PPPs! I apply with the BE brush and have no trouble. It's very natural, and works well over the BE mineral foundation.
