Best Things in Beauty : MAC Blushes revisited: Dollymix.

today i want to continue the MAC Blushes revisited series (overview post) with Dollymix Sheertone Shimmer Blush.

Dollymix is a typical 80ies pink, rich (almost berry), bright, cool toned, with a blueish/silver sheen. the texture is nice and fine, the shimmer is not frosty so it won't create a greasy skin appearance. although this is such a hot pink, with a light hand it applies sheerly and still very evenly and blendable. the shimmer translates to a white sheen. you can easily build it up to a brighter colour which would look great on deeper skin tones, but with too much colour on very fair or very dark skin, this will most likely look quite disco-esque ;)
lasting power is average on my oily skin (about 6-8h).
i really like this colour, i think it looks great against my dark hair and eyes.

MAC Blushes come in the signature simple plastic compact with transparent lid. it contains 6g of product and retails for 22€ (in germany)/17£/19.50$ in a container and 18€ (in germany)/14£/16.50$ as a refill pan.
i like them for the huge colour range with different finishes. the rather affordable price point and the easy accessibility make them a fabulous basic range to start your blush selection with. plus, MAC products are probably the most discussed in the online beauty world so you can easily find good reviews and photos for products you might not be able to test in real. the quality is medium-high according to the different finishes while i like the Sheertone finish the most.
