MAC Powder Blush in “Coygirl” (Sheertone)

This is the first MAC blush I ever bought. Technically my sister bought it for me when she was travelled to Malaysia last year. Coygirl is a medium cool tone pink with a hint of purple in it. MAC has a different finish to their powder blush. Other than sheertone, MAC has a matte finish like “Melba” and “Desert Rose”, Satin finish like “Well Dressed” and “Fleur Power”, sheertone shimmer like “Peachykeen” and “Peachtwist”, also frost finish like “Margin” and “Format”.

Pros:
It has a beautiful color, I think this blush will works really well for people with a cool light/medium skin tone.

The packaging quality is wonderful! I dropped it really hard one time, I thought it was going to broke apart into pieces but surprisingly it didn’t! It still perfect!

It has a smooth silky texture that makes me want to buy another color. MAC blush is addicting, and I will totally repurchase this color if I run out of it.

Cons:
Because this is sheertone finish, it doesn’t really give too much pigmentation, I should sweep it a few times to get the color shows up on my skin. If you want a great color pay off, just don’t buy MAC sheertone or sheertone shimmer finish. Go for matte, I heard good reviews about it.

The weird thing is, I don’t find this blush to be easy to blend, I don’t know why, maybe my face is too oily or my brush is not a good quality but I never heard other people have the same problem.

This blush is expensive! I hope I can get MAC Procard, so I can get a discount when I shop there. Is USD $18.50 on MAC official website, my sister bought it in Malaysia for a RM 75.00 and in my country, Indonesia? The price is Rp 255.000,-  !!! ( is two hundred fifty five thousand rupiah, in case my numbering make all of you confuse. FYI, we have a different rule with numbering a currency here).

Overall I love this blush and I give it 4 out of 5.
