I received the Fun in the Sun collection as my birthday present and this was one of the products it came with. I have previously been using Clinique's Enchanted Bronze and I find that these two products are very similiar. However, I do find that while MAC's Nuance gives a subtle shimmer, Clinique's is more overpowering and shimmery. I use both these blushes for different occasions, however I do prefer using this mineralize blush more as it seems to last longer and look more natural. Would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for a nice, subtlely-shimmery blush with medium skintone.

Received this in a swap and I absolutely adore it. It's great as a light pop of color on the apples of my cheeks or to layer onto another blush. I layered it onto mocha blush last night for dinner and it looked absolutely beautiful together. I didn't get these when they first came out because I was afraid of glitter chunks as in previous MSFs. Love it.

I own a ton of MAC blushes, and this is the one I have been using everyday for the past month and a half. I am NC30 and this one is very flattering on me and is perfect for everyday.

I bought this together with Dainty. They both have very sheer color with a little bit of finely milled shimmer. On me (NC20) Nuance have more of a nude golden color rather than peachy. So, this is more of a neutral blush for me. Due to its sheerness, it is easy to not overapplied this blush. U can just pack on the color without looking OTT.

Nuance it's been on of my HG blushes for almost 2 years, actually my 2nd favourite since the 1st is Mac's Sunbasque. I alternate between these 2 a lot, and it's a perfect bronze peachy shade with a soft gold sheen ( the MSF kind of sheen). The only thing I don't like abou is that I need to apply a lot in order to show up, it's a problem that I don't have with Sunbasque, but I do love the gold sheen it leaves on my cheeks. Perfect shade for any NC20 to NC30 skintones.

I was skeptical about this blush when i got it in my Fun in the Sun Kit. However , it is a peachy color and when applied this it gives me an amazingly warm glow when used with my kabuki brush(for reference : Im an Nc41) However, it did not last too long which is my only complaint !

I am an NC20 with more beige undertones. This shade looked very orange on me, and way too shimmery.

This product is SOOOOOO pretty! I was amazed how it was shimmery that I bought it. LOL. I actually got it at a CCO just recently for 14ish dollars and this blush looks great on me. It looks warm and makes my face look like it has a subtle glow. I'm in love with the product and I love how it's a light peachy coral... just straight up beautiful!

The blushes from the Sonic Chic collection have the most lovely texture and pigmentation! Nuance is a golden peach shade that goes on easily and blends out to leave a pretty glow.

I am an NC20 and BE Fairly Light and this is my favorite MAC blush. I can wear it with everything. It is a gorgeous soft shimmery peach. It gives me more of a glow and lasts all day. MAC Mineralized Skinfinishes would give me tiny bumps on my cheeks but this blush doesn't.

Sorry to rain on the parade, but this blush is beyond boring. Nothing remotely shows up on my cheeks (except for a bit of glitter). NC 30.

This is one of my staple blushes. I am so glad that MAC made this blush part of their permanent line. I fall into the medium skin tone category and find this blush give me the perfect warm glow. Its such a beautiful peachy color that I think would actually flatter any skin tone. My one complaint is that I do have to pack it on and it doesn't seem to stay on all day. I still gave it a 5 though since I don't mind reapplying this one and I just believe the color is perfect for me. I would def. buy this again and again!

I bought this online,and and I love it! It's a soft shimmery peachy nude color, that goes well with pretty much anything. My only complaint is that you need to apply with a slightly heavy hand to actually see it, but it can be applied ontop of any other brighter blush to get a nice glow.

I love this. I am kind of considering getting a back up of it, lol. It's a beautiful reddish apricot color on my skin. It really warms up my face. The texture of the blush is nice and soft and shimmery. I don't have to use a lot to get it to show up on my face - actually quite the contrary, I find that this blush is much, much softer than my other mineralize blush Dainty, so I actually have to be careful with how much I use - I think it's pretty pigmented. The lasting power is great and if I wear light warm pinks, this is the perfect blush (with Hug Me on the lips). When I wear other colors, I prefer Dainty, but I still like to put this on lightly underneath Dainty because I like how it warms up my face.

I'm generally rather biased against MAC products, because the ones I've tried are so useless, but somehow people like to gift them to me. And I must say, this goes right into the I-Just-Don't-Get-It category with the other MAC products.


Do I like it? Sure. It goes on peachy reddish on me. Shimmery and really quite pretty. It stays on practically all day. And it's just gorgeous to look at in its packaging.


Is it special? No bleeping way. The colour payoff is rather pathetic. I have to swipe my brush many, many times to get it to show decently. I see no reason why I can't find a similar colour in cheaper brands. And I've used blushes that cost less than 10 bucks with better colour payoff, and comparable effects and staying power.


Would I buy it? No. It's pretty, and I do love it cos my friend was thoughtful enough to get me a colour I don't already have. I reach for this very frequently. On the whole this is a decent product, but it's just too expensive and I really can't see why.

I love this product! Pretty much exactly what I was looking for...a golden tone that can be added over any blush to soften the look. I'm really big into neutral but glowing cheeks right now and that's pretty hard to find the right balance, at least for my yellow skin tone. But this product is just so beautiful! I layer it over MAC's Well Dressed, which is a cool pink but seems to tone down some of the redness in my cheeks and adds a very pretty, soft pink, like a ballet pink. Together I get a softer version of Nars Orgasm. I've gotten so many compliments on my skin when wearing this combo. You know it's a good look when someone compliments you on your skin, not your make-up. So sad to hear it's LE, I'd buy another but after my recent eye make-up splurges, funds are very low. I'd recommend anyone to have this color, so versatile.
