this is the first and only mac blush I own to this day and I'm kind of disappointed. I got it a while back when the mac me over collection was in the stores and the mac girl recommended it to me. i was trying to find a casual everyday color that can be built up to also be a natural evening blush. when she applied it to me it looked gorgeous and perfect for my skin tone and i don't know if i got an odd one but mine just doesn't seem to show up much on my skin. if i really try to slap a lot on it looks nice at first but after a few minutes just vanished... shame

Stunner is a neutral mid-tone pink with modest color pay-off, which is why I like it so much. It's not particularly "soft" or "buttery," but when improper blush application can easily look like someone is wearing too much make-up, I actually appreciate that in this product. When I apply this in the morning, I don't really have to worry that I'm putting too much on. It's a natural color that looks great with just about any look. I wouldn't repurchase only because I could find a similar color by a cheaper brand, and because it was limited edition and I couldn't repurchase even if I wanted to.

This blush looks beautiful in the pan but did nothing for me on my cheeks. I have fair to light med skin and this color did not show up on me as much as I would have hoped. I do like really pigmented blushes so maybe that's the reason why. I did end up swapping this away.

Adore this shade, Im dark blonde with NC25 color. Comes on as a pinkish beige on me, not really coral at all. I cant stand coral or peach colors, so Im suprised how this brightens and makes me so natural looking.

I don't know what it is about this blush, but it makes me so happy!!! I love me a coral-pink blush, and this one does the trick without looking OTT (like Fleur Power can on me unless I use a really light hand and blend blend blend.) I can throw this on without thinking about it and it balances well with pretty much any neutral/smokey eyes and nude/pink lips (which is pretty much my everyday look arsenal). It comes off almost matte on my NC20 skin. and more pink than coral, just super pretty, almost a bright guava kind of pink. Brightens up my whole face. I've been wearing it daily since September. Its transitioned well for me from autumn coming into winter, and I don't think I can see myself getting back into my other pink MAC blushes (dollymix, fleur power, well dressed) until it's gone. In a word, Love.

This blush didn't really catch my eye because it looked somewhat bland and drab in the packaging. Being the makeup fanatic that I am, I swatched it anyway...Let me just say that it looked like a completely different color once I swatched it on my hand. I went ahead and bought it, and I LOVE it! I went back to buy another before they sold out just so I could make sure I have it for a long time :) I'm somewhat fair skinned, but not quite porcelain or ivory, and it works great for me. I recommend not knocking anything until you swatch it!

For Ref I'm NC42 and this barely shows up on me but I got it anyways because because it is subtle for an everyday use or if you have a really smoky eye. I sometimes like to use this to blend out really pigmented blushes like Overdyed and it does give it a nice pink glow. This is LE but if it came out again I probably wouldn't repurchase.

This is probably the most boring blush color I have ever bought. It's a good neutral color, but I have much better colors that I wear.

I'm confused. Some of the ones I've seen are this gorgeous coral color and the one that I received looks almost identical to Mocha with minimal color payoff. Did I miss something?

I must admit, I wasn't "wowed" at all when I got this in the mail. It looks like an average pink blush with shimmer. I kept it and continue to use it, but it's nothing extraordinary.

It definately has more shimmer/sheen than most of my other blushes, but I lean towards matte blushes for the most part. It blends well and is easily buildable.

MAC describes this as a "light coral pink" but it is definitely more pink than coral. It has a warm subtle sheen, and I don't have a problem getting it to show on my NC30 skin. Stunner is somewhat similar to MAC Dainty and NARS Deep Throat, but Dainty is more yellow with gold sheen and DT is peachier and more shimmery. Verybecca in her review was right on with the comparison to MAC Fleurry, which is peachier - but they are otherwise very similar in pigment, tone, and sheen (even though Stunner is a Satin and Fleurry is a Frost). This will be a good year-round blush, but right now I'm especially liking it as a transition away from the corally, bronzey blushes I wore during the summer.

I love it when MAC puts out a blush with the texture of a highlighter - this is almost a frosty peachy pink...reminds me of the much-coveted Fleurry from a few years back. I swatched them side-by-side and they're extremely close. This makes your cheeks simply glow. I imagine it'd be a great blush for PPP but I'm NC35 and it is still very pigmented on me but a light color in any case. Lasts and lasts on my cheeks too.

I love this blush because I'm not great at applying makeup and I never have to worry about looking like a clown with this blush. It is a very light pinkish blush and I don't notice any sparkle or glitter. It seems very easy to wear. My skin is NC 20-25. I also have some redness around the nose and this color is flattering. Some blushes enhance the redness but this is flattering.my usual blush is MAC blush baby, which is also sheer but this is a nice switch. If you can't get it because it sold out, I think Chanel has something similar called cloud or something like that.

Gorgeous! Stunning and perfect.

I'm NW10 with black hair and this blush is a perfect peachy-pink flush, so nice that my Mum wants one now too.

I'd compare it to a paler less bright Bite of An apple, and a paler version of Fleur power (I have both of the other two). Its a blush that I can throw on without worrying too much about blending it perfectly. Love, love love!
