Quick Take: natural looking

Illamasqua bushes are AMAZING....The pigmentation, color is just perfect. No shimmers and i love the fact that it is matte. Blends beautifully in skin, Worth every penny and i think many age groups will love the product.

Pigment dense & excellent staying power! - 11.18.09
Quick Take: natural looking

If I get the application just right (and I'm still experimenting), the blush is just the best! What I truly adore is the staying power and I seem to get the best application with my fingers--which is new for me. For some reason, a two finger tap on the blush and then on my cheeks works perfectly. I also have one other light pink color, but so far this is my go-to blush.

I am a HUGE makeup junkie and blush happens to be one of my favorite products. I was so excited to receive this blush... It was always out of stock, so I ordered it right when I got the e-mail from Sephora saying it was available. I was a little disappointed with this blush -- especially after reading all the rave reviews. The color is extremely intense... even when using just a small amount. I also didn't like that the color was completely matte. I like to have at least a little shimmer to brighten up my blush! It is hard ordering cosmetics online because you don't get to test them before purchasing and the colors can sometimes be off. The color I ordered was not as described and much darker than pictured.

will probably last FOREVER - 11.11.09
Quick Take: dramatic

SUPER concentrated powder blush!! a little goes a very long way. I was looking for a darker blush for a more flushed look and found that with Kiss. I have a fair complexion and blue eyes and this blush goes well with dark makeup for nighttime. problem is... application is not for newbies.

Great Pigmentation - 11.02.09
Quick Take: natural looking

I bought this product in Beg, Katie and (just for fun since I thought it was going to be out of control) Thrust. Thrust ended up surprising me quite a bit. While it is *shocking* in the pan, it is really a really soft purple color. Obviously, it would look strange to wear to work, but it would be pretty for other occasions. I would recommend Thrust for people with darker skin. My friend, who is an NC45 looks much better with this blush on than I do (I am a C3). Katie is a beautiful everyday color and is a very girly, light pink. Beg is probably my favorite of the three and would suit people with tans exceptionally well.

FAB-YOO-LOUS!!!!!!!!!!!! - 10.28.09
This is like face candy. It comes in many shades (some of which are deceptively dark--choose carefully) and really packs a punch. A VERY little goes a LONG way. I barely touch my blush brush to the compact and then barely touch the brush to my face, and it's enough.

Such a good Hu$$y. - 10.26.09
Quick Take: natural looking, silky

Hu$$y is a bright petal pink with a very slight coral undertone, so it seems warm to me. It's the perfect blush color for me & I usually shy away from pinks. I'm a light to caramel complected african american woman, depending on the season, & Hu$$y makes me look like I'm just blushing naturally. I adore it & I cannot wait to see more colors!

great blush! - 10.22.09
The oowder 'kiss' looks very natural on med tone skin. It lasts all day and still looks great. Apply sparingly, because a little goes a long way. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a easy powder blush.

A color (Panic) that I waited years to find - 10.15.09
Years ago YSL had a beautiful blue-red blush that they discontinued. I waited to find a similar shade and this (Panic) is it!! It is totally matte (no shimmer/glitter) and can go from dramatic to subtle by its application method. For a dramatic look, I use a blush brush. For an every-day look, know that a VERY little goes a long way. I find that just a few grains on a cotton round provide a beautiful flush to the complexion. I believe this shade would be an excellent addition to almost anyone's blush repertoire. Bravo and thank you, Illamasqua, for this unique and very flattering color!

Watermelon pink - 09.29.09
Quick Take: pretty color

A great shade of pink that's a bit bright but not too much. It works on my fair skin but I think it would work well on darker skin, too. Wears evenly but could last a bit longer.
