What are you keen on trying ? I am liking the sound of both 😀
MAC Blushettes were a part of the Surf, Baby! Collection..Bound for Love and Barbara Ann were the two shades launched in the collection..
MRP: $21.50 ($18.50 on sale) for 4.2g. Available HERE
It comes in a small swivel twist up tube packaging..like the Lakme Cheek Artist from the Fantasy Collection.
It has a black holder cap on top..so the product does not spread or melt inside..
Barbara Ann is a bright coral orange..looks gorgeous.
Bound for Love is a warm rosey mauve pink with subtle silver shimmer..it gives a natural flush to the cheeks..a soft rosy sheen..can be worn everyday and does not look OTT..
Unblended, Blended |
But the shade is a little sheer and needs a few swipes for the color to show up..and staying power is also average..stays for 3-4 hours and then starts fading..
Pros:
1. Easy swivel up stick…comfortable to carry too.
2. Warm mauve pink..would suit medium to fair skintones..gives a nice natural flush to the cheeks.
3. Pretty packaging.
4. Does not look OTT.
Cons:
1. Staying power is average.
2. Shade needs a few swipes to show up.
3. Availability is an issue..and this was LE…available on Brigette’s Boutique though..
Overall I quite like these cream blush stick concept..those are quite easy to carry and use..and this shade gives a natural rosy flush to the cheeks with subtle sheen..perfect for office or everyday use…

Why You’ll Love It
Ultra soft cream-whipped blush
Refined color pigments for better color payoff
Ultra blendable, it melts into your skin effortlessly
A lighter than air fell on skin and an all-day freshly applied look
Expert Tip
With your fingertips, pat a small amount of blush onto the apples of your cheeks. Use feathery strokes to blend gently from your cheekbones to your temples. To build color intensity, apply more blush.
They have introduced only 3 shades in India: 04,05 and 07
04 is a light peachy color, 05 a rosy pink and 07 as seen below a mauve pink
All the Dream Touch Blushes have fine shimmer…these IMO are best used at night or for parties..since the shimmer might be a little OTT for day time..and not at all for work..
Its super creamy..so much so that a touch would make a dent in the blush 😀 Very pigmented..and does not give too much of a shiny or dewy look, so even if you are oily or combination skin, this would suit you.
It has quite a lot of and visible silver shimmer..so if you have open pores, then I would not advice getting this as it would accentuate your pores..the staying power is good..it stays for 5-6 hours after which the color starts fading but the shimmer stays..
Unblended, Blended |
Pros:
1. Super creamy forumla.
2. Would work for all skin tones.
3. 7.5g is a lot of quantity and this would last a very long time.
4. Very pigmented.
5. Stays for 5-6 hours.
6. Perfect for parties or night time.
7. Price is decent for the qty offered.
Cons:
1. Has a lot of shimmer, which stays behind after the color fades.
2. Not for people with open pores, the shimmer would accentuate the pores.
3. Not for day time or formal wear
Overall the shade is a pretty mauve pink and a nice blush for night time..would look good on medium to fair skin tones and works for all skin types..if you looking for one mauve cream blush, do check this out.

What the Company claims: Pot Rouge For Lips And Cheek

This cream-based formula blends like a dream and provides a long-lasting, natural stain of color that absolutely glows on the skin. Suitable for use on both cheeks and lips.

All the shades are not available now..neither on the Bobbi Brown site nor on Apothica..I am not aware if they are discontinued or just Out of Stock.
Cabo Coral and Calypso Coral were a part of the Bobbi Brown Cabana Corals Collection which had launched in 2010.
I was super confused between Cabo Coral and Calypso Coral..Cabo Coral is a true coral peach..minus any pinkiness..whereas Calypso Coral is a bright coral pink..I was scared it might be too bright..but it comes up just fine after blending.
As described..Calypso Coral is a bright coral pink..I like the coral pink hue it gives to the cheeks..but it does not look OTT.
Its a little on the glossier side..so I guess the oily skinned would not prefer it much..coz of the shine..you better try first before buying.
Its so super easy and convenient to use..I love cream blushes coz they are very easy to use and can be used anywhere..you just need clean fingers..thats it !
Unblended-Blended |
The formula is nice and easy to blend..it stays a good 6-7 hours..though the glossiness would go..the color does not fade away completely..but I wish it had better staying power..not the fault of the texture..nothing survives too long in the humid climate here.
I find this a little drying for lips..and the color does not show up much too..it comes up as a stain..and stays for 2-3 hours..but not very comfortable on lips….you feel that dryness.
Pros:
1. I love the bright coral pink shade.
2. The shades they offer are all quiet nice and versatile..from peaches to pinks to brown pinks to plums and browns.
3. Super easy to use and blend.
4. Convenient to carry around.
5. Gives a glossy finish to the cheeks..I like that in winters.
6. Stays for a good 6-7 hours.
7. Can be used for both lips and cheeks.
8. Its easy to use..also coz it does not settle in fast..and would not stain if you do not blend quickly..so good for newbies too.
Cons:
1. Feels drying on lips.
2. Expensive.
3. Availability is an issue..I see only 3-4 shades everywhere.
Overall I quite like it..I did not have a bright coral pink cream blush in my stash..the texture is nice..easy to blend and gives a glossy finish..I also like Powder Pink, Blushed Rose and Pink Truffle. Calypso Coral is a nice color for medium to fair skin tones. For medium dusky, I would suggest Powder Pink or Pink Truffle.
