I totally caved and picked up Bred for Beauty. It was just so beautiful. I thought I might have something similar so that I could skip it. The only other bright pink blush I own is Peony Petal and they are nothing alike! I'm so glad I picked it up but I really shouldn't have! MAC comes out with so many pink blushes. I just had no will power after I swatched it! Please don't hate me!

That is just stunning! I can't blame you for getting it! I'm not sure, but it is reminding me of Nars Desire, which I surprisingly don't have. I bet that is going to look so beautiful on you. PLEASE post a pic!

There's a Nars blush you don't own?! Haha girl you are the Nars queen! Thanks!! I hope it looks good on me! I will!! I don't wear makeup everyday. Usually only 1-2 a week right now since I haven't been working. I may just need to do my makeup tomorrow to use it even though I'm going to stay in and do school work!
It'll look beautiful on you
Thanks! I hope so.

I still need to pick up a Nars blush! I need to pick the right one. 
I picked it Douceur a couple weeks ago because I saw somewhere on here it was being discontinued. So pretty! I'm sure Mandy can recommend one that would looks gorgeous on you! They are so nice! Mandy got me hooked!

She has recommended Madly...and I was at sephora and still didn't swatch it like a dummy.
I am looking at Madly and Gilda...for some reason I love Gilda in swatches.

I was looking at more swatches, and people are saying it is comparable to Mac Melba....so do I pick up melba or gilda? :sigh:
That's a tough one. :sigh: I really like MAC blushes and I really like the NARS blush I have. I'd say though that if you're looking to try out NARS that maybe you should get Gilda. Or maybe go to a Nordies that has a counter for both, swatch them side by side and decide that way. :)

Just looked up both of those blushes. They both look beautiful in pictures! I'm leaning towards Gilda for you just because it would be so pretty for summer!

I tried looking up side by side swatches. Looks like Gilda is brighter and a touch darker than Melba. I don't own either so I can't say for sure!

I just looked up Gilda too! Wow, is that ever beautiful! I only own one Nars blush and that is Gaiety. I'm afraid that if I start buying more Nars blushes, I won't stop! LOL! That said, they are realy good quality and there are so many shades to choose from! It's amazing really!

Noooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is one of my most used Nars blushes! I seriously can't believe that! They better be replacing it with a similar shade! Madly is the closest thing they have now, and I love it, but it is less pink and has more sheen.

Gilda is actually one of the few that I don't own, but I'm definitely going to get it one day! You won't be able to swatch it at Sephora, though. They don't carry it there. Same with Gina.

Don't listen. It isn't. Gilda is going to be much brighter. It's going to show up much more vibrantly on the cheeks than Melba. Melba is much more natural looking.
