    I don't use fierce blush very often but when I do I always reach for my MAC.It blends in perfectly every time [especially with my Jane. shimmering bronzer]. MAC has tons and tons of colors for every type of skin tone out there and very friendly Sales Associates to help pick a shade for ANYONE so I think everyone should try this.

    I've had this product for the past few years and find I always go back to it, no matter how many new blushes I buy. It's very buildable and works great with some of my other shades. If you accidentally get too much on, you can always tone it down with a little bit of silica powder. It helps blend out mistakes. MAC blushes are of good quality, definitely, but they are pricey. Even though that's the case, they go a long way and will last forever. I've got 2 and that will do me for quite some time. It would be nice if they started providing ome kind of little brush that fit into a bottom stiw away under the blush so you could take their products with you without having to pack all of your brushes.Like those products that have a top and bottom lid, such as the Loreal HIP eyeshadows do. Lord knows I've got about 45 brushes and I sure don't want to pack them all when going somewhere.

    Not sure which one would suit you? ALWAYS ask MAC for samples. They are usually pretty generous with them and will give you enough to use several times, if not enough for a month even, so you get a clear idea on whether or not a product looks good on you.

    And always return their products, all manufacturers products, that don't suit you, whether or not you have a receipt.

    I forgot to say, at that time I had bought a Mineralize blush in Dainty, but I actually have 3 of their blushes. Dainty (Mineralize formula), Flirt & tease (Sheertone Shimmer blush) and Brit Wit (Blushcreme formula). I can't say anything about them that would be negative, actually, even in the 3 different formulas. All are quite good.

    This is pretty good, although it is as thick as glue. I use a foundation brush to apply it and blend it out. A sponge will wind up making you waste a lot of product. The consistency is a bit of a problem, as you have to tug at your skin quite a bit to get it properly blended, however, the color lasts all day and the product doesn't make your skin look greasy. Maybe mix it on the back of your hand with a little bit of mousturizer before applying. It's also a completely matt color, so no sparkles at all, which is nice.

    Regarding the price, it goes quite far, so I gave it a bit of a higher mark there. That being said, it isn't cheap. But I very much doubt I'll EVER have to replace it because a little goes a long way.

    Compared to a cream blush stick I recently bought from NYC, I have to give the NYC higher marks because it is FAR cheaper, about $2.50 with my magazine coupon, and it blends far more easily than the MAC product. But overall, this product isn't bad. I'd buy it again if I ever ran out, which is unlikely.

    Mac blushes are my go to blushes. I usually get them in the pan form without the case and put it in the Mac Blush Palette. Mac has a great variety of colors for all skin types. They also have different finishes that suits your needs. I find that they are generally very pigmented, goes on smooth and not blotchy and a little goes a long long way. The color in the pan is also very true to what you will actually get. Overall, although a bit pricey, they are a good investment.

    I have been repeatedly lured to Nars cosmetics counters and stations because of its famous Orgasm blush. I finally made up my mind to buy it, but it was sold out at Sephora and the lights at The Bay made it look too sparkly for my liking. Not to be deterred in my search for a blush that would made me look "glowy", I headed over to the MAC counter and asked the friendly makeup artist/counter person to find me a blush that rivaled Orgasm. She brought forth "Style" and I fell in love.

    Here's the thing: I have Nars blush in Dolce Vita and I love it. But my one problem with it is that it is SO pigmented that it is slightly hard to control, and sometimes I end up looking like I'm running a high fever.

    MAC's Powder Blush, however, goes on a little more sheer than Nars, which makes it a lot easier to build colour without looking consumptive or like a clown. "Style" specifically is a corally-peachy-gold, with a slight frost (no sparkles) and it looks beautiful.

    So, if you want to get on the "glowy-skin, looks great on everyone" bandwagon, but find that Orgasm is too sparkly, or unavailable, or whatever, I recommend Style by MAC.

    This is the first time I have tried MAC's blush & I absolutely love it!
    I have it in the color "gingerly" and I really like it! I wanted something that wasn't too pink and was more of a soft color for my cheeks (as I have natural color in my cheeks already). So when I found this blush I was very excited!
    It goes on very nice and very little is needed for the full effect so I can tell that this product will last for quite some time! :) It also stays on quite well throughout the day without any touch-ups needed!
    It is quite expensive but it is definitely worth every penny! I would recommend it to anyone who wants a high-quality & long-lasting blush.

    More effective as a bronze, rather than a blush. Provides a very pretty, warm elegance. Perfect for contouring.
