This is a VERY VERY Pigmented Blush. A very very light tap is all you need. I am an NC35,one tap can leave me looking like a clown, so i need to tap off the excess multiple times before I can apply it without it looking clownish...The color is a rosey-reddish-winey color. Has very minimal sheen to it, when applied, it is almost matte with very very slight sheen. Highlighters are needed if you want glowy cheeks. Stays on at least 6 hours. The texture is smooth and slightly powdery. Blends easily enough. This will definitely work for deeper skinned ladies. Color can be pretty intense and intimidating if not applied with the correct brush. I use brush that arent too dense to minimize the product pick up. All in all a decent color. Looks decent enough on my skin tone, but nothing super outstanding.....Would not buy again...

This colour is GORGEOUS on my NW25 skin. I picked it out because it was closest to my natural flush. This is the very first blush that I bought when I started getting into makeup almost three years ago, I've used it pretty much every day since I bought it and I'm not even halfway done with it! It's super pigmented, and I only need to swirl the tip of my brush a few times to get enough colour for my cheek.

Overall, great value for the amount of product you get. I would buy again if I ever ran out, but I probably won't! A great colour for medium skin.

I was a little bit skeptical when the girl at MAC told me to try this because I'm in NW20 and I was a little scared to wear this blush. I felt in love with it after the first time I've used it! It has a strawberry colour which gives a natural and healthy flush to your cheeks. I find this is the perfect colour for various skin tone. I use just a tiny bit of this but if you have darker skin tone you can build up the amount of colour. I would reccomend it even if you don't usually like mineralize blushes because the shimmers in it are really subtle and delicate.

At first glance, and first swatch this blush can be intimidating and scary! But rest assure when applied with the right brush it can come across as a nice natural flush of color! I prefer to use a stippling brush to apply.

I bought Gleeful because I saw a mexican beauty guru (mymakeupcorner) wearing it on a video and, since we have a similar skintone, I thought I would give it a try. And I was right! Gleeful has to be applied with a very light hand (like Fever), but the glow it gives is gorgeous. I think this will last me for ages :)

This was an impulse online buy for me. I was on Strawberry net looking at the mineralize blushers by MAC. Do you know why I added this to the cart. I sipped my red wine, chuckled at the name 'Gleeful' and instantly thought of my favourite TV show Glee that I am guilty of watching. Now after trying it for a month I have more reasons to love it. It's in a dome shape, It looks very pink in the pan with tiny gold flecks in it. I don't need to put to much on the brush. Sweep and blend, It gives me a lovely pink flush. I use this at night for a candle lit glow - it's a great shade for my NC20 skin. It looks flattering. It will bring out your girly-girl side.

Ever since I started wearing this blush my boyfriend keeps saying I look really pretty! I never thought a blush could make such a difference but apparently it does! LOL :)

This is a great color, but a little goes a long way. It's extremely pigmented and can make you go from 'nice flush' to 'clownesque' in seconds.

I loved Gentle and Warm Soul from the mineralized line so much that I had to have this one too! I'm an NC25 and Gleeful is VERY flattering and wearable when applied with a light hand. Over-application is easily remedied with a layer of powder over it to buff it out and tone it down a little bit. I paid $23 for this at the MAC counter in Dillard's, but when you consider how long this will last with its high-end quality and excellent pigmentation, the price is fairly reasonable. Even though it will probably take me 1-2 years to finish my first one, I would still purchase again when I run out. Love it :)

This is a beautiful colour for more dark skinned people. When i had gone to mac i had my mind on razin blush but when i saw this blush, it was like love at first site. Firstly This blush is sheer to full coverage ( really buildable) so that would be suitable for all ages. Secondly i really like the shade because during the winter it gives me this gorgeous wine colour but during the summer it has this beautiful peachy sheen which gives a lovely glow to my face so i think this is a all round year product. I really recommend this product.

This product is definitely for people with medium skin tones. Its a dark rosy color and would look best rushed lightly on the upper part of your cheeks. The packaging is perfect because average blush brushes are the same size as the product so when you tap your brush on it it takes product from all sides.

LOVE !!!!! This is suchhh a pretty color! It is very pigmented so what I like to do is put it on my brush, but before applying straight to my cheeks I gently brush it on the back of my hand. It gives you a nice not- too- pinky color on your cheecks with a natural glow. Love it! Would totally recomend. Ohh! And my friend (who is darker than me) tried some of this and she, too, fell in love.

This was my first product from MAC, since the SA recommended it to me, saying it would look gorgeous on my fair skin. I was sort of shocked, since it looks so dark in the pan, but when she put it on, I was sold! It's such a pretty colour! It also doesn't go on too pigmented, which I like because I don't like looking too made up!

I am somewhat bemused by all these "heavily pigmented" reviews...I actually find the opposite. This blush need to be BUILT on me (NC43 for reference with heavy gold undertones) to show. I am usually a NARS girl and THOSE are pigmented to the teeth! This is in the family of my usual NARS Torrid and Gina, but much more subtle. Which is why I like it.

Where I need to be careful with Gilda and Torrid, there really is no way for me to overdo it with Gleeful. Maybe I just have a naturally light hand?

Gleeful is a lovely berry/pinky/glowy blush. Would def repurchase because it's my go-to blush for my "5min face" when I don't want to look overdone.

This blush is so underrated. It was the first MAC blush I purchased, and has been one of my favorites so far. It's quite scary-looking, especially for pale-skines like me, but it appealed to me at once. I wasn't quite sure when the MUA showed it to me - I mean, it's a deep wine-red with golden flex, for crying out loud -, and I was afraid that I would look too red on me. But let me tell you, this blush is Christmas to me. With just a slight tab with my brush, it gives me the most natural flush. And if I dab twice, I have the perfect nighttime flush. It leaves a hint of shimmer - not the chunky kind, but the highlighting kind. Perfect for wintertime, but I have no problem using it in the summertime, too. I love this blush, and I'm determined to go get me another Mineralized blush. I would repurchase this again, but I can hardly imagine me ever running out of this blush.

Great blush. You only need the tiniest hint of a stroke on your cheeks and you're good to go.

Lovely faint shimmery finish.

i love, love, love this blush! i usually use orgasm from NARS and was looking for something different. when the MUA suggested this color i originally thought it was going to be to dark for my fair skin (NC 15-20) but after she applied it i was sold! it is BEAUTIFUL! a little goes a long way. she stippled it on with a 129 blush brush and built it up gradually. amazing!

I really like this blush, but it wasn't really what I expected. I love the color of peachykeen, but it doesn't really show up too well on my nc42 skin. I was looking for a blush in the same color range, but more pigmented/darker. The color comes across both warm and cool (because it is a blue pink with gold shimmer), but registers on my cheeks as a rasberry pink... definitely no where near peachykeen. The color is still very pretty, just not what I was looking for in an everyday blush. It does register very well on my tan skin and you only need a few sweeps.

I'm a sucker for MSF so I can tell you that this is one of my most favorite mineralized blush. I love the color payoff and it's perfect for any occasion.
