brown-toned blush

[Jennifer]

i've been using apt. 5's blush in b-06, but lately, it's been looking kinda bad. i have MAC's prism, but that makes my whole face look orange, even if i put on very little!

i don't like using bronzers because i'm pretty light, so that would look gross, so i just need a neutral/brown blush.

any recommendations?

Hmmm, I like Chanel's Golden Sun for a more bronze color. It's very natural looking, but it's not brown. Everyone always looks like they're glowing in it.

MAC Blushbaby is so what you're looking for. It's a pinky brown, and I find it very neutral. I can wear it with most anything, and it does not look dirty on my light skin. HTHS!

(its the darker of the two colors, the other is called "peachiness".

I'm fairly new to MAC - so I'm not positive what colors are new, and what have already been available. But they have a lot of colors that i could definitely see myself wearing!

And yep... that is a CCB in "Dusk"... it's a pewter-brown like color w/ shimmer. I already have "Hush" ccb - so I figured I would try something a little different - but still light enough to use under shadows. This looks like it would be pretty on its own too as a cream shadow or as a highlighter over the cheeks

Haven't used it yet - will today, but seems pretty 'user friendly"

I've discovered some samples of Stila CC in Peony in my train case. When I first tried it it wasn't really doing anything for me but now i really like it. It's kind of a neutral pinky-browny colour so it could be what you're looking for if you don't mind cream based blushers.
