First of all,I don't see any peach in this blush.It is a warm pink and surprisingly it complements my NC15 skin tone beautifully. With one swipe you got this beautiful natural -you make me blush- flush. Build it up and you got some serious pink colour going on.Great for every day wear.It has a subtle sheen and it blends beautifully into your skin.Amazing staying power as with every MAC blush.If you have fair skin,this blush is a must.:)

I am MAC NW20, almost black hair, brown eyes. Pinch o Peach was just "off" on me. MAC Dame is a much better choice for me. I could wear Pinch O Peach with plain eyes & lips, but it didn't play nice with my other lip colors or eye makeup. I had been living on MAC Dame that I bought over this past winter. I assumed it would not work in summer because it worked so well with all my pink shades & winter looks. So I purchased Pinch O Peach assuming this pink with a touch of peach shade would work on me better with my bronze eyes & coral lippies I use in summer. It started to skew very orange on me. Not orange, orange, but there was a terracotta tinge to it once it was on my naturally rosey cheeks. I actually saw so much of this peachy/orange/ terracotta type color that I was flabbergasted to see how many people were saying here "what, peach, there is no peach in here"...oh yes there is...at least on me. So I went back and tried Dame with my summer lippies & it worked! I could not believe such a blue based pink would work in summer on me, but it did. So what I have learned from this? Here we go:

*Dame is much more versatile than I ever gave it credit for being. And for light NW's...you should try this! I can not believe that after 15 years of playing with makeup, I found a blush that works all year round.

*Pinch o Peach is probably as versatile as Dame is on me on someone with more yellow skin tones...highly rec'd it for light NC's.

*Your skin tone will influence it clearly, but Pinch O Peach is appropriately named. It is a pink with a pinch of peach in it. If you are straight NC, yellow toned it will probably feel like a light wearable pink. If you are light NW, pink toned, you may feel/notice that pinch of peach in the blush. And if you are a red head or a blonde, or have olive tones, you might like Pinch O Peach better than on me (with my very dark hair and eyes, but very fair pink skin)

I hope this helps.

My favorite thing about this blush is that you can either create a natural flush look or build it up more and have super duper pink cheeks. Gorgeous versatile color too ! I never would have reached for such a bright pink had the MUA not tried it on me.

I hate to bring this product down, but personally I am not a huge fan of this blusher. Perhaps I have high expectations since I have used Illamasqua blushers (which are awesome!) I find that this particular blush does not last a long time. I understand that it is supposed to be a "sheertone" which I am fine with. It never packs a huge punch when applied, just a light flush, and don't get me wrong it is gorgeous when its first applied, but I just find that it fades fast. By the end of the day I feel that there isn't a trace of it left on my skin. Which is such a shame because it is rather pretty on my skin. It is a yellower based pink than most other pink blushers that are blue-based, which do not work at all with my very warm skin. I will finish the product, but I won't buy it again. I just feel that the more MAC products I try the more overrated I feel that they are. :(

So beautiful!! This is my second ever blush purchase, my first one was NARS Orgasm. I'm fairly new to blushes so I guess I don't have that much to compare it to. I did want to try a matte blush, and I can say so far I like it a little better than my NARS one, I'm overall not into shiny/glittery/sparkly stuff. This colour really looks great on my very fair skin, it's subtle yet completely brings my whole look together.

Ok, so when I first saw this blusher in duty-free MAC, I was shocked... SO SO PINK especially considering I don't wear bright eyeshadows or lipsticks and generally shy away from big colours. BUT, I have wanted a pink blusher for so long. I like a hint of pink on the apples of my cheeks but seeing it in reality, it was a shock! The SA was very helpful and showed me this blusher and another that was more peach/nude (really can't remember the name!) and due to my nervousness, I knew I was leaning towards the more nude one. I pretty much had it already but from Bobbi Brown. So pleased that I stuck to my guns and bought Pinch O'Peach which is exactly what I went in there for! Using the 129 brush and building up the intensity very slowly, I get flushed cheeks that I always wanted.

My HG.. I'm Asian. Very yellow toned. NC30/35 depending on the season and this always works for me. I don't know why I try other blushes. I always end up returning to this. Have repurchased 2x and thought it deserved a review

I usually am super hard to please when it come to blush. Most are shimmery which I hate. So when I was at the MAC store and I was browsing amongst the blushes, this one caught my eye. When I swept it on, it gave me the most beautiful natural flush of color. Looks great no matter what season it is! I've had it for around 6 months using it everyday and I have barely made a dent in it! It was expensive but for the amount that you get with it, it's totally worth it! I have NC20-25 skin and it looks amazing on me. Defiantly a winner by MAC!

Like other reviewers have mentioned this blush is definitely not peach. On my fair complexion is shows up as a warm matte pink that departs a beautiful rosy glow. Very pigmented and blends nicely without looking streaky. A versatile shade that works with many looks and occasions.

Great blush, however it is not peach at all. More like a beautiful flush of pink that is very buildable. I went to MAC with the intentions of buying Pink Swoon, however I opted for Pinch O Peach since it is much more pigmented. I had to apply way to much of Pink Swoon to achieve my desired look, but with Pinch O Peach I got away with just a few swipes across my cheek. It probably also has to do with the fact that I have too dark of a skin tone for Pink Swoon to show up on my skin. Pinch O Peach is absolutely perfect for a healthy glow.

This blush is perfect for a sheer flush of pink or a bright pop of color! I love how customizable this is. It is a bit pricey at around $15, but if I could only have one blush in my stash, his would be my choice! (for reference, I *think* I'm around a NW15-Nw20)

Love it. A perfect healthy-looking peachy-pink tone. Use it almost every day. Pricey, but it looks like one is going to last me forever, so, worth it.

I just love matte blush in general. In my collection are MAC matte sheertones and Illamasqua matte blushes. I love Pinch o Peach. It's called Pinch for a reason - not much Peach but it's not a blue based bubble gum pink! It's so pretty and nice, easy to wear, gives off an easygoing vibe and perfect for every day!

This is the best MAC blush I've tried so far. I'm in NW20 and this colour is perfect for me. The name probably doesn't give the real idea of the colour beacuse this blush is more on the pink side and that's probably why I love it. It's very nice if you have pale skin beacuse it's sheer but you can build it up to a more strong colour. I also find that it lasts all day when I use some kind of spray to fix my make up.

I use this as my everyday blush for school. I got to a private girls school and makeup is banned. Yet, most girls including me wear it anyway. This blush is matte and a peachy-pink natural shade that is similar to my natural flush. This gets 4 stars because it doesn't last ALL day on me but very close. I would repurchase as it is a mid-range brand therefore affordable for a high school student and is everything I need in an everyday blush.

I'm used to wearing bright pink blushes and when I wanted something new I stopped by MAC to see what the makeup artist recomends. She put this on me, and at first I didn't really like it because she barely put any on but when she layerd it I loved it. Its a soft pink/peach color that doesn't make me look too made up. I actually like this better than my bright pink blushes that I loved, it goes really well with my skin. I gotta say this stays on for a long time and it never gets blotchy like other blushes, but that's just MAC quality. I love that this doesn't have shimmer, its just a matte looking blush making it look natural. Even my sister that's hates blushes is loving this!

I love this product so much because of the fact that it's a sheertone and you could always work with it, it looks pinkish in the pan but once applied onto the face it gives this amazing coral/pinkish color to the cheeks. :)

I love the sheertone textures as they are great for giving a flush and colour is buildable but hard to overdo. I use this more than any other blush as it gives a good sheer healthy flush. Nice size blushers too, I hate the diddy ones some brands offer.

Best. Blush. Ever! :) I reach for this most days (it lives in my handbag) as the colour so easy to wear and looks very natural on my NC15 skin. It's a sheertone so it builds easily and looks soft on the skin. Loooove! :)
