This blush gives me a really nice natural flush. It goes on lightly so I can layer it without fear of looking streaky or like a clown. It stays on all day as well. I also like to put a highlighter powder on the apples of my cheeks before I apply the blush. I use Wet and Wild shimmer. It makes you glow.

This is great. a peach-brown colour with a hint of pink. It's great for natural, casual days. I will defintely buy again. However, I wish it lasted longer. It seems to fade off by the end of the day.

I wear this pretty much every day for a natural look. For me (NC20 skin) it takes a couple of swipes to get it to show up on my skin. It doesn't last the whole day, but then very little mu does (at least on me).

Nice overall colour. Perfect for those natural/nude days. Its sort of a peachy-pink rosy colour. I would buy again. I just wished it had more lasting power.

I am an NC40, and Blush Baby color gives me a natural rosey color to my skin. Since it has a bit of brown too it, it blends perfectly to my skin tone without any obvious or harsh lines.

Great color, great quality. I am NW20, look best in cooler tones, and on me Blushbaby is a brownish-pink, a bit more brown than pink, slightly less pink that Cubic. It is cool enough to look good with my coloring yet warm enough to tone down the redness in my cheeks. The texture is fabulous, it is so finely milled and soft on the skin, a breeze to apply and blend. Would repurchase.
UPDATED 7/05: Changed my rating from a 5 to a 2 because this blush turns orange on me by the end of the day. Really a shame, because the texture of the Sheertones is wonderful.

I got this blush because I wanted something like my current HG blush, Jane Blushing Petal. And this is really close, it looks like almost a mauvey pink in the pot but goes on pinky peach like Blushing Petal, except it's more pink than peach, which is what I wanted. Lasts all day and really brightens up my face.

I love this blush, I always have it on hand. It gives a nice fresh "blushed" feeling without all the shimmer. I love it for everyday wear.

To me, in the pan and on my GGG skin, Blushbaby looks like a brown-toned pink blush. But, in the display next to all of the other MAC blushes it looks more brown than pink. In any case it’s a sheer blush that can be layered, so I think it would flatter a variety of skintones.


I love to sweep this on when I’m in a hurry. It’s a pretty and natural looking, and since it is sheer, it’s pretty hard to overdo it. Not exciting, but a staple for me.

I absolutely love this blush. I bought it a few years ago, when a MA at the MAC counter pointed out the Sheertones to me when I was on a hunt for a "fall" makeup look. It was an impulse buy, and I didn't expect to like it all that much, but boy was I wrong.
I'm not sure what it is about it, exactly; it seems to be exactly the right color... a gorgeous blend of brown and pink. It goes so well with my pinky, pale skin. I apply it on the apples of my cheeks in the morning, and it only looks more soft and natural and pretty as the day wears on. I do sometimes have to reapply in the evening or late afternoon, but I'm a blush fiend, after all.
This is one of those products that just ties a look together really well; you catch a glance of yourself in a mirror during the day and you just look so fresh and awake and pretty. I wear it every single day, it's surely a staple, and I'm thinking it will be the first blush I ever repurchase.

Yup. LOVE it.

I am not a big blush gal, and I got this from my mom, so I didn't even pick it out. Very sheer, as the name implies, but overall, it was just average compared with Physicians Formula. Whatever. . .

*EDIT*-I ended swapping this away because it was too similar to Mocha and Mocha looked better on my NC35/light olive skin.
*
I got this in a swap, so when I opened it up I was like Eew Brown Blush? After reading all the reviws about how natural and pretty it was, I felt let down :p. But I tried it on and it goes on a lot more pinky/peachier than it looks in the pot, thank God! Very pretty and sheer. I think a variety of skin tones could use this color succesfully. I would buy it again most likely. On me though it looks very similar to Mocha, so if you have a similar skintone I dont know if it is worth having both, unless you are a MAC fanatic :)

I was on my search for a pinky-brown blush and ended up buying this. This was not exactly what I was hoping it would be as it has a slight peachy undertone without shimmer to it however it still gives me a natural flush. The quality can't be faulted and love the packaging. I wouldn't repurchase as I'm still on my search for the perfect pinky-brown blush. For reference, asian gal NC35.

This is an awesome colour.. a cool-ish pinky brown.. it looks a little more brown than pink on me.. NC20.. But i love this colour..sheer and buildable.. blends like a dream (as with all the MAC sheer tone blushes) I use this colour for contouring! and alternate between this and dollymix.. which is another fave of mine!!>. i love MAC sheertone blushes!!..

This color looked a really dark rose I was really scared to use it on my pale skin. It turned out to be a light rose pink on my cheeks and looked very natural which surprised me. When i put too much I look like a clown. So careful application is key. I tend to use this in the winter time.

Love the healthy pinkish glow. On my C35 cheeks they pop with just enough color to look healthy and because its sheer you can build it up and cover with a dusting of powder just in case you over do it.

LOVE IT- i've tried everything from giorgio armani to clinique, and this is the best everyday and then some color for my skin tone (med-light, asian). looks natural without too much brown, too much pink, or too much peach.

This is a nice, basic everyday shade. This is my second sheertone & I love them. Sheer but buildable. This shade accentuates nicely & goes w/ most shades of e/s & l/s.
