Great color for me (LLL) - can't beat the price. My only gripe is the packaging - pretty crappy. Lid doesn't stay on. Otherwise, this is fabulous.

This is the first blush I have ever used that looks just right with my skin tone, it gives a very natural, healthy glow. I wouldn't even try anything else now that I've found this, and the price is great!!

I've always been intriqued by orangey/peachy blush. I'm happy with the quality of the Rimmel blush but I'm still deliberating about the packaging. I like that is doesn't include one of those small, wimpy brushes--I never use those, anyway. However, simp

Great blush if you like tawny/orangey shades! They really compliment my light skin with its peachy undertones so I really like this. The texture of these blushes is sooooo luxurious and they blend so well too. This colour is pretty exceptional for a drugstore line-will definitely buy this again! :)

I found what I was looking for, which is actually quite rare. I was looking for a peachy coloured blush, that would give me a nice, healthy glow on my cheeks. Apricot blush does just that. The texture is great, and sheer, and easy to apply. The price is okay, but the packaging..... not the best. I'm a hinges, flip the lid kind of gal. I don't like removing the lid completely. I can already say that one day, I will make it fly in the air and break, especially on one of those early mornings when I'm still half a sleep. If your into powder blushes, I'd say definitely give this one a try.

Nice little blush. Great color for warm skin tones. Nice, subtle shimmer. Applies well. Low price is astonishing. The only drawback is the container but for the low price, I'll put up with that. I'd buy it again and have most of the Rimmel blushes.

for less than $2 how can anyone be disatisfied? ... anyway, this is a very pigmented apricot color that can be layered. it lasts. looks great on medium, dark, or yellow skin. i would hesitate for paler skin tones for the reasons previously mentioned: it would look too orange. also as previously mentioned, the packaging sucks. do not put this in your purse because the lid will pop off. the package is square with a clear plastic lid that is not screwed or hinged, it just kinda "sits". if you don't plan to carry it around however, it's fine.

This is a nice blush for summer because of the coral/peach tone and the shimmer. I hate the damn compact though. What a mistake!

I like this blush a lot. It's a nice colour...not orange and not pink and that's a great thing because with my skin colour I can't wear blush that is too pink or too peach. Well this one is somewhere in between and shows up nicely on my skin...I am Persian, so I have yellow-toned olive complexion...think of a pale east-indian colour...the blush is nice because it has the slightest bit of fine shimmer (which you can only see if you really try in bright light) and the powder is a very fine texture. The price was definitely right, however, the packaging is awful. The lid does come off, so it's best not to carry this around and just keep it at home.
Ok, well I have written enough about a blush...on to more important things.

I ran out of my Bourjois "Brun Délice" blush so decided to try something new. I got the Rimmel blush in Apricot and Sienna (sienna being a tad bit darker). They work wonderfully on my tanned eurasian skin. Both colors look very natural, giving me that healthy glow and last quite a long time, which is good for my combo skin.
The packaging is pretty bad though, the lid comes completely off. For a 1.97$, it is still really worth it. I'll definitely re-buy

This is the perfect peach-apricot blush for my bronzey, tan skin. I think on a paler person it would probably look too *orange*. It's similar to NARS Orgasm in base color but w/ much less shimmer. AWESOME product for less than $2! I just don't like the weird lid, it keeps popping off & it's just akward.. but for the price & quality, i dont really care :)

I'd been looking for a low-end apricot/peachy blush, because even though I love my Nars Orgasm, it's more pink than peach on me. I bought this based on a MUAer's rec and it's EXACTLY what I was looking for. It's a peachy-apricot colour with some shimmer (much less than Orgasm though). You only need a small amount, especially if you're fair, otherwise it will look orange. Goes on extremely smoothly and evenly. It gives me a healthy glow. The packaging really sucks--the lid is awkward to remove and replace--but the pan is large enough to fit my blush brush.
