MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Stereo Rose $34CAD for 10g |
MAC will be re-releasing Stereo Rose on Wednesday December 26. I went to the MAC Pro store yesterday because they release collections one week earlier and luckily they had it in stock.
Mineralize Skinfinishes are marketed as powder highlighters but I know many people use this as a blush. When swatched Stereo Rose is very pigmented and smooth. It's probably the best quality powder product I've ever touched.
I don't know what happened to my eyeliner here... |
Overall I am happy I have Stereo Rose and I will use it. I just wouldn't recommend waking up at 5am on Wednesday to get a hold of it.
such a beautiful shade! looks great on your skin tone :)

Thank you :) I'm still unsure of how I feel about it alone.
DeleteOooh that's pretty! I like how it has peachy undertones to it:)
ReplyDeleteIt's definately the perfect partner for peach blush :)
DeleteGreat review, it's still a pretty shade :) xx
ReplyDeleteThank you :) It is, just with the hype surrounding it I had high expectations.
DeleteAw, I got so excited to see this was being re-released as it looks so gorgeous in the pan, and I love Mac MSFs, so I'm disappointed to hear that it's not all that. I recently purchased a new MSF in Light Year, and that one comes out a really gorgeous peachy shade with a hint of subtle gold shimmer, I'd highly recommend it.

I'm sad I missed out on the collection that Light Year came out in. All of those MSFs looked so pretty. Hopefully they'll re-release it.
DeleteThe color is amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteSorry I had to delete that post but I did see your comment. I wasn't supposed to post it til tomorrow lol Too much on my plate. Yes we must be around the same age. I'm 27 by the way! Well stay tuned I post them every week. www.pynkkrush.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteLol it's ok I figured as much by your title.
DeleteIt does look pretty as a swatch, but looks a lot different on the face.
ReplyDeleteYeah it's kind of "blah" when on. There are much prettier peach blushes out there.
DeleteI agree. I recently picked up the Tarina Tarantino blush palette (snagged the last one for all eternity, holy moly) and the two peachy blushes in there are much better than this. 30 dollars for this one product is a bit much too... then again, it's MAC and they love hiking their prices up nowadays, hah.
DeleteYeah I have blushes that cost half the price and are much better. Oh well that's what I get for being dumb enough to believe the hype haha.
Deletethat color is beautiful!
ReplyDeletei'm following you :)

Thank you Marsa :) Definately going to go check out your blog!
DeleteI know this whole collection was getting a lot of hype! I only really ever buy lipsticks from MAC's limited editions and so I'm glad I didn't miss anything here although it would be a really pretty spring blush color! I think I really want to try out the eyeshadows! They look so nice.

Yeah I think this would be better in spring or summer. It's not the right colour for this time of year. I agree that the eyeshadows in this collection look so pretty but I'm trying to resist!
DeleteOh my gosh this is gorgeous, I currently only own one MSF but I now NEED this.

I know it's sold out pretty much everywhere but TheBalm blush in Hot Mama is very similar (but prettier imo).
DeleteOh this looks so pretty in the pan but I agree - when on it just doesn't look as nice. It's still pretty with a peachy blush underneath, though! :)) Great post!
ReplyDeleteXO,

I think it's the veining in these MSFs which make them so appealing. I'm sure I'll get more use out of this when it's summer and I bust out all my coral and peach blushes.
DeleteThe way you applied it (with the secondary blush) it looks great! Sorry it kind of underwhelmed you :-/
ReplyDeleteThat's actually it on it's own, but thank you :)
DeleteGreat review! Such a great colour, it really suits you.
