Some of you may of seen this mentioned in my Haul post the other day, as an early Birthday gift my mum brought me a few Mac goodies. 'Ladyblush' blushcreme had been on my wishlist for a while so I was overjoyed when I finally got my mits on it and it didn't disappoint!
Mac's blushcremes retail for £16.50 for 6g which I don't think is a bad deal. The blush is really pigmented so a tiny swirl of your finger will pick up all you need for both cheeks and I have no doubt this will last me aggges. The blushcreme's have quite a strange consistency compared to other cream blushes I've used, they're quite thick and slightly sticky at first touch but blend suprisingly well!
The colour is described as a 'demure cool pink flush' which I'd completely agree with, it looks slightly darker in the pan than it does on the cheeks but it's a really pretty, cool toned pink that can be sheered out or built up to intensify the colour.
The main reason I love this blush is because of the finish.
Even if you've given yourself a completely matte base a pop of this on the cheeks will leave you looking fresh faced, glowing and gives a gorgeous dewy finish to your cheeks.
This has already become a firm favourite along with Illamasqua's 'Katie' and Topshop's cream blusher in 'Flush'.

It look so pretty. It wouldn't be a shade for my complexion, but I'm sure it looks stunning on you.
