I'm glad I purchased MM and PP only. PT and IF are way too light and would look ashy on my NW43 skin. I know MM was the popular one but I really like PP.

Wow! Did you use them all up?Yes, unfortunately.
I'm not so much of a MAC fan. More of Chanel. The last collection I went crazy for was the Spring collection where Azalea was the part of, along with Ripe Peach and Vintage Grape.
I had three Azalea's then.

Nah, I ended up selling all three. The first two, then the last one a few months ago. Doing so broke my heart. So I'm really very glad about FOJ!

Aah what a shame. It is really pretty. FoJ is pretty too.

I was also wondering about Immortal flower but I saw a side by side swatch somewhere of IF next to Illamasqua Lover which I have also, and When IF was swatched and layered heavily, it looked really close to Lover so I skipped on it. I am NC30 like you and I LOVE Modern Mandarin! It's nothing like Taj Mahal. I say get MM, I'm sure you'll love it

I do not own any NARS blushes, so I don't know, but I believe several people have said so...^Yup, that's why I wanna get a backup of FOJ. Also Peony Petal.
Here is light dusting of Peony Petal + FOJ on me

You are adorable Antigone! I love the blushes on you. Funny, I am wearing Peony Petal and Full of Joy today. I LOVE both of them. Still kicking myself for not getting Immortal Flower, Modern Mandarin, Pink Cult or LoveCloud though. I have soooo many blushes and I didn't want to go overboard. Especially knowing that MAC will probably release some new ones in the upcoming collections that I am going to splurge on.

I am wearing PP and FoJ too! Nice combo... Too bad you missed out on MM and LC. IF is my least favorite of the bunch so far... Perhaps they will be repromoted in the future.

Tx MACerette! Maybe they will repromote in the future. May I ask why IF is your least favorite?

Sure, first of all I am overwhelmed by the gorgeousness of the other blushes. Apart from that I am NC 15 and it hardly shows up on my skin. It needs layering. I have only tried once though... Since I have had the TC blushes I have worn them daily. I will try IF again another day with a subdued look. Anyone had similar experiences?

Funnily enough IF is the only blush I've used so far (kind of in a makeup/work/life rut) and I do like it as a subtle blush on me (NC20ish).
I use the Sephora Classic Mineral brush (http://www.sephora.com/classic-mineral-powder-brush-45-P255416?skuId=1200518) to apply in sort of a stamping motion at first to sort of pack on the colour and then swirl/buff out concentrating on blending the edges out, reapplying as needed (for IF I reapplied twice).
My cheeks get kinda red from any makeup application (foundation, powder, blush, highlighter - so annoying!) so I have to wait a bit for it to calm down to see if I need more blush. With IF it was a light peach with a bit of my natural red-cheekyness showing through mostly on the apples, which I do like the look of compared to caking on too much foundation/concealer to cancel out the redness.
Not sure if any of that helps I do recommend trying out the Sephora brush for blush and other cheek products (used it with Superb EDSF) as it applies and buffs really nicely vs. other traditional blush brushes I've found.

Pink Tea was way to pale on me, might be able to use it as a highlighter though.
