Sorry for the scary flash picture. This was difficult to photograph in natural light. |
Firstly, I loved Archie's comics as a kid which is the number 1 reason I wanted something from this collection. My non-makeup obsessed sister even went nuts over the packaging. Veronica's blush is 3 products in one: a pale pink highlighter (Play it Proper), a matte blush (Frankly Scarlet), and when mixed it creates a shimmery light pink blush. Frankly Scarlet is a permanent blush and it reminds me of a matte version of MAC blush in Dollymix.
I have only tried this powder with both colours mixed together and I love it. There seems to be a lot of shimmery peach and coral blushes on the market but I have been searching for years for the perfect shimmery pink. I think I've found it in this product and I'm very grateful that my boyfriend bought it for me.
Availability: MAC counters and stores on Thursday February 7 (this is sold out online). $35.

Yeah I think that's a good thing. I usually have to order online and hope it's good based on promo pictures.
DeleteThis reminds me of the Physicians Formula Happy booster blush! Stunning as always:)
ReplyDeleteYeah it does kind of look like those blushes. Thank you :)
DeleteAh this looks lovely! I was eyeing a couple pieces from this collection but I think I am going to hold out! I will be hitting up Murale this weekend so look out! ;)
ReplyDeleteYeah you kind of have to order this stuff blindly. Luckily it turned out well. Haha excited to see what you get so I can live through you!
Deletethe scarlet on its own looks beautiful! & you're lucky to have such a great boyfriend who will buy MAC stuff for you :P
ReplyDeletelol he's never bought me makeup ever but i kept going on about this collection so he asked me to pick one thing.
DeleteThe boyfriend is a keeper if he buys cosmetics! (but he also ate my candy as I recall... no one touches my curlywurly!) That blush is a nice mix of delicate and punchy. You look great in Cupcake as well!
ReplyDeleteThis is the first he's bought! but he does have good taste in jewlerly. men tend to eat everything in general i think lol. thanks :)
DeleteThis blush looks pretty but yet it reminds me of the physicians formula blush from the design of it.
