Mac Modern
Mandarin is part of the new launch Tres Cheek
which is a
blush only launch consisting of 6 various blushes.
I love
blush as much as the average blush hoarder
but 6 shades are too many even for me so I
settled on two shades.
Immortal Flower is a really pale peach shade, almost flesh toned.
Initially I was a little disappointed with the shades as it is a little pale for my skin tone
and does look a tad ashen on me but I can really see the potential this has for paler skins
who may feel the coral blush trend a little hard to pull off at times.
I may even use this in the cold months when I am paler...who knows?
Immortal Flower is a satin formula blush which is not matte in formula
but rather
has a light silver veining of shimmer/glitter scattered throughout
and in this case it is much finer than any other satin Mac blushes I own.
I found the
formula to be fairly light and well pigmented so much so that
I adopted
the tread lightly approach through fear of looking like a clown.
In terms of
wear I on average get just around 6 hours of wear from a Mac Satin
Formula
blush and do not find them to be unflattering on skin that has faults
Such as
fine lines and enlarged pores.
So what do
you think of this shade?
Great for
the summer?

depends how pale you are. I'm around nc15 and palest shade for Nars's foundations and it just showed up on me. I found that I had to kind of pack it on. I like how it is a very wearable orangey coral colour and looks rather natural. If you're darker than me then it might show up as well. I'd go with modern mandarin or lover from illamasqua, obviously with modern mandarin you'd have to have a really light hand.
Delete*might not show up as well
DeleteAedai is right it depends on your skintone, at the moment I am a NC37 ish and wear Barcelona in Nars foundations and it doesn't show up on my skin properly it looks ashen but if you are paler as Aedai said it really is a beautiful shade.I'd esitmate that it would work best with cooler and paler tones maybe up to the Mac NC20 mark :)
DeleteThanks Aedai for your help :)
This is really pretty but i like blushes that really pop on your cheeks, seems to subtle for me!

I really wanted this, but it didn't show up at all when I swatched it in store. IT was upsetting because it's such a beautiful shade!
