My newest MAC Blush!

Hi Ladies,
Second to last review of the night! I've had a lot to fill you guys in on!
Anyway, 3 weeks ago I picked up this MAC blush in "Dainty" for $23. It's a pinky blush with minimal shimmers in it, but the shimmers don't transfer noticeably onto the face. This blush gives a nice rosy flush to your cheeks, but it's buildable enough that it could be used for "stage makeup" (meaning you can put a hell of a lot on and it'll still look decent). 
This blush is everything I wanted NARS "Orgasm" to be, but unfortunately the crudely named blush has way  too much shimmer and I can't make it work for my skintone*. 
This blush is a really good "basic" blush, because pink is a universally flattering color and most skintones can wear this. Yes, MAC has raised their price $1, but you get what you pay for, amount and quality wise.
There's a lot of blush in this container, and I doubt I'll be hitting pan anytime soon. 
I bet there are some drugstore dupes for this blush, as it is such a common color, but I don't own a blush like this. 


All in all: Great blush, probably wont repurchase for the sake of experimenting. However, see if you can find a drugstore dupe before you purchase.
xxx,
Ashley
