I think I just prefer to have a satin or shimmer finish when I wear blushes of this color. For some reason though, I wasn’t as impressed when I put it on my cheeks, and that has nothing to do with the formula. It’s true that this is my type of color and it does have a very soft feel to the blush. The photos I took are all of Beaming Blush at various angles and light situations to show how it goes from pink to gold.Īs for the High School Musical blush, I bought it because of how much Angelica Nyqvist was raving about it. I was drawn to the embossing, the colors, and packaging from the beginning, but they looked so frosty and light in photos that I didn’t think I’d be able to pull it off until I watched B Rich Beauty on YouTube show the collection and compare them. The one I purchased, Beaming Blush, looks pink while appearing much more gold on my skin. Show Gold looked gold but had a stronger pink hue on the skin. Both highlighters in the New Year Shine packaging are previously released shades. Next on the list to discuss is this year’s Lunar New Year release. It’s so visually stunning and from every angle! Since it’s definitely not a wearable color for me, I plan on not touching it again and just keeping it for collector purposes just like I wanted to back then! Also, I wonder if MAC will ever make something like this again. The swatches above are the only ones I took of it. I apologize for not posting about it on my blog or Instagram sooner! I hadn’t expected it to be available for that long. It was listed as “low stock” for about ten days before it sold out again. So, I was quite surprised when it went through and I got it! The link I included above had broken (not visible) photos too, which is also why I expected it to be mistakenly made live on the website and thought my order would be cancelled. I was surprised to see that this order was shipped from Canada (even though I ordered from the US site), which I don’t believe is a usual occurrence with my orders and further leads me in the direction of suspecting this was a misplaced item recently found and put back up for sale. However, mine actually had the number 690 written on the box, which leads me to believe MAC may have misplaced some of that initial inventory from three years ago. Then, I thought maybe they did a limited re-release. I remember how much I regretted not stalking the website, missing out on that launch, and not even being able to buy it from resellers because they were putting it for sale at $100 or more! So, when I recently saw it available on MAC’s US website, I thought it must be a mistake considering they only made 1000 and they sold out extremely quickly. Starting with multi-colored (at least in the pan) highlighter, I actually purchased Precious on Februeven though the initial release was in Summer of 2020.
