Blushes & Highlighters

MAC Stereo Rose Mineralize Skinfinish (LE Goldplay 2005)

Used 1x with stippling (skunk) brush.

This is the original version of Stereo Rose MSF that was sold as part of the Goldplay collection. I have read that there are subtle differences between the original 2005 version and the version re-released in 2010.



MAC Petticoat Mineralize Skinfinish (LE Lingerie 2005)

Used 1x with stippling (skunk) brush.

This is the original version of Petticoat MSF that was sold as part of the Lingerie collection in 2005. I do not know if there are differences between the original 2005 version and the later re-releases.



MAC Shooting Star Mineralize Skinfinish (LE A Muse 2006)

Used 1x with stippling (skunk) brush.

Shooting Star MSF is from the A Muse collection released in 2006. It has never been re-released.



MAC Desirous Powder Blush (LE Nocturnelle 2006)

Never used.

MAC Slave To Love Powder Blush (LE Ornamentalism 2005)

Used 2x.

MAC Hunger Red Blushcreme (LE Catherine Deneuve 2006)

Tested once. 

NARS Mounia Blush (Discontinued)

Never used. Packaging is very dusty/dirty from being stored with the rest of my makeup, as you can see in the photos. On that note...

Dear NARS: Your makeup is very expensive. Could you consider making the packaging out of something other than sticky black rubberized plastic that attracts dirt like a magnet and then can't be cleaned? Sincerely, everyone who has ever spent $28 on a blush that end up looking like the above (aka, all of your customers.)

NARS Outlaw Blush 

Used 2x with stippling brush; product appears untouched. Packaging is quite dirty, as visible in photos.

Stila Fall 2006 (Fall in Love) Blush Duo: Sugarloaf 

Packaging is in excellent condition. Mirror has ring of discoloration (see photo)- it looks like the glue reacting with the backing (it's not on the surface.) Matte side used 1x, shimmer side used 3-4x.
