This is perfect for anyone who gets a bit pink when naturally blushing, regardless of skin tone. The description for this says that it's for lighter skin tones, but it looks great on my medium-toned skin (I wear Golden Natural stick foundation). It does have some shimmer to it, but it's not excessive. I don't usually wear anything shimmery, but this doesn't feel over the top...it's just enough to be noticeable but not ridiculous or something that would only be appropriate for night / glam looks. I apply this pretty liberally with a bronzer brush (perhaps I can be more generous with it because it blends into medium skin tone so well) to give me some color and youthful luminosity.

I bought Pastel pink, this powder has shimmery base with ton of glitters loaded on top yet poor color pay off. The powder is also fragile, when I swirled my brush to blend it, dust flew everywhere. It came out as a wash off of light pink powder, the glitters are very noticeable while the pink hue is very sheer and didnt last long. If I would like my cheek looks like this, I'd rather use a pale pink blush then layer it with highlighter on top.

This Brightening Brick is like looking out your window and seeing flowers blooming instead of seven foot high snowbanks. Really, this gives you t hat pop of natural color and does light up your face. The shades blend together beautifully, not too much shimmer, not too much matt color. The overall effect is making you look like you've spent some time outside in the Spring sun. It's sheer enough that freckles show through so it looks natural. I hope this becomes part of the regular line.

My favorite blush!

I'm very fair (neutral), and I really like multi colored blushes, but alas they are going out of vogue. I went to the store and tried the pink and coral since they were marketed for lighter skin tones, but they were fairly hard and kinda disappeared on my skin, which is unusual. This cranberry on the other hand was SUPER soft and pigmented and looks great even on me. It was like a different product entirely. I love that if I don't want a dark blush I can omit the purple shade by sweeping around it. This also works great for travel since you got bronzer (left column) and has some highlight colors. The purple is a fabulous wash over the eyes too.
