This is probably my favourite colour out of the whole line. It gives me that "flushed but in a good way" glow. I love the consistency of the dream mousse products but only when applied with a brush. I find they get chunky and terrible when applied with my fingers. This one doesn't have too much shimmer and I absolutely love it!

i heard a lot of good things about the consistency and color of this product on youtube, so i went to go get it. first of all, i think i chose the wrong color. this one seems to make the slight redness on my cheek stand out more. ive heard good things about the peach satin one, though, but they were out of that stuff when i went to cvs :/

consistency: this is supposedly the best part of the product but it didn't really work for me. my flaky pimples (i know, that sounds really grotesque but i mean like those kinda dry flakes that you get on your cheek) were dryly patched with this blush. it accentuates the dryness of them, which i didn't find very exciting at all

color: its an "eh" color. its not a color id go crazy for nor is it a color that i absolutely despise. its ehhhh

application: i use my fingers and blend it out outwards. some people use a brush but since i just started with makeup, i dont have many brushes to start with.

overall: i think itd look beautiful on those with good skin or those who are wearing good foundation. its really about the surface that the mousse is on. wouldnt buy another bc it was kinda pricey..

I felt that this was a bit too garish pink for my NC30-35 skin... It could also be perhaps that I am not used to using the cream blushes, so technique is not there. I was having issues with using too little or too much. At the end of the day, I ended up returning to my CVS. I guess I will stick to my powder blushes. On a positive note, the product does have a lovely light consistency to it. Just didn't work for me :(

Most awesome blush to use. featherlight and is so fun to use, well atleast i find it is. sad. Anyway this shade is best suited for medium skin tones as it is the darker colour. best applied with a brush ive found

I use this everyday. I love the color...it goes really well with my fair skin tone. The texture is soft and adaptable; it blends into your skin perfectly. I apply mine with a brush. Only downfall is that it fades away within about 6 hours.

Nice color, looks darker in the pot. When it's applied and blended this blush looks very close to my natural pinched cheek color. Applies sheer but it is quite buildable. I don't like the glitter, and I'm not usually picky about shimmer or matte.

I picked this up at Dollar Tree yesterday. Heavenly texture and lovely color, with great staying power. I just wish it didn't have the crazy silver sparkles. I would wear this every day if it was matte (or even with less shiny stuff), but will have to use it occasionally.

I don't really like the heavy amt of sparkle they have for this blush, so I don't really wear it much. The colour is also quite unsuitable for people my age, because its more plumy and gives a more mature look overall. If I have to use this I only apply a little so there's a hint of blush yet the colour won't be too saturated. Won't repurchase.

I love the color of this blush, when blended properly it looks very natural on my PPP skin. I don't like the high amount of sparkles in it, I find that rather distracting for daytime looks. I will look for a matte version of this color when this pot runs out.

It is way too easy for a makeup newbie such as myself to apply too much and end up looking like a clown. This would be less of a problem on darker skin tones, and it means that PPP's like myself just need to practice using less. :)

I do love the jar this comes in and plan to reuse it for my honey and sugar lip scrub when it is empty.

I love this product. It's so buildable. I understand that some people might find it goes on the skin unevenly, but that's what primer's for right?

Gorgeous color for any skin tone. I also bought the Dream mousse blush in Peach Satin (love that one as well). I like to use soft plum for night, as it is a deeper color. The shimmer doesn't bother me at all, it actually doesn't show too much on my skin, just adds a slight glow to my cheeks which is great. Works great on its own, but works even better when paired with a powder blush. I personally like to apply wet n wild's heather silk powder blush for a deep/bright pink/plum cheek. Perfect for nighttime.

First off, the texture is heavenly, very fluffy and applies like a dream (being new to cream blushes, this is an added bonus). Soft plum is a dark shade pink with bits of shimmer. I actually don't find the shimmer bothersome, rather it gives my cheeks a healthy glow. The staying power and pigmentation are decent. I got this at my local CCO for less than $3---for the price, I wish I had snatched up a few more colors.

This is my go-to blush! I reach out for it a lot when i can't be bothered wearing too much make because it looks great on my nc25 skin and gives me a natural flushed look. The shimmer in this blush does not worry me because it looks very subtle. I also like the fact that the application of this is soo easy, very convenient for when i'm in a rush.
I want to try this blush in peach satin next!

Great blush!!!!!! Super-easily blendable, natural looking, and it lasts all day! The tiny sparkles it has look very nice on my fair skin. And it it reaaaaally cheap!
The only thing I have to complain about is that I need to use a good amount of it to build it and get the result I want.
But if you are out for a good natural-looking blush and your budget is limited, I think you should definitely try it!

Just bought this at the dollar tree. Its an okay blush, very creamy and very glittery. It goes good on my dry skin. I like the packaging, when its gone you can use the glass jar for something else. I will repurchase again because its only a dollar and I'm cheap like that. I'm probably gonna grab all of them.

Boy, I love this stuff! Yes its very glittery and shimmery, but it gives such a pretty glow to my face. I use this as a base for my true match blush, and it lasts so much longer. the color is like a deep pink and i love it! I will definitely repurchase, and would like to try some other colors as well.

I mean I guess this product is really a case of you get what you pay for. I must agree that the sparkles were.....DISGUSTING. I have rather olive skin (sry I have no idea what I am in MAC) and it was just gross. It was like an atrocious cheek highlighter and blush in one. For me, this did nothing besides make me look like on sparkling clown.

The REAL downside of this product is that even putting it on lightly it doesnt help with the sparkle factor. Because there is just so much shimmer in the product itself, when you put it on lightly you get more sparkle than you do color pay off.

I really wanted to beleive in this product but it just let me down.

Whenever I put on blush for my skin, it fades away quickly so when I found this product, I was curious since it's not a powder blush. I put it on after I put on slight foundation and it lasted me the whole night while I was working at a restaurant! I was completely surprised that it stayed on so I'm glad I ran into this product! I use this product every time I put on makeup from then on.
The one thing I would have to say is that it can be difficult to blend properly. I usually touch a little of it with my finger and put it on my cheeks in circular motions along the apples of my cheeks and that really helps. I would definitely recommend this blush for someone who is looking for a long lasting cheap blush that they don't have to touch up. I don't mind the shimmers of the blush and I'm so glad I found this product!
