I am yet to try it on my face but yeah honestly the shade frightens me too lol!! But it's a really pretty true copper shade!! I am hoping it can be buffed well or used over a blush!! Will keep you posted!!

My Blushed Copper should be here today, but I won't be able to swatch it until later tonight. The anticipation is killing me!

...then my Estee Lauder should be here tomorrow. And then I will be properly buried in highlighters and other products I have yet to use.

That is part of made hesitate to get the EL as I had just ordered Blushed Copper and my unused, new purchases pile is starting to pile up. Welcome to the club.

Great Swatches! Where is mine? Hoping it comes soon.


Great swatches. I'm wondering if it is anything like my favorite highlighter for the past year, Mac Perfectly Poised. It doesn't really matter because that one has a copper and a pink duochrome that look lovely mixed together.

I hope it arrives soon to ICL!!! I don't have MAC Perfectly Poised---I haven't purchased a MAC highlighter/powder in quite some time.
I agree---having new items to use in queue is a way of life for hardcore makeup addicts.

That sounds perfectly normal to me

My item arrived. I took a quick comparison pic but I'm having some trouble uploading. I did some computer upgrades yesterday and things are moving slowly. Anyway, I swatched Blushed Copper against Mac Perfectly Poised and they are quite different. Blushed Copper looks more rosy in tone next to the copper in the Perfectly Poised duo.

Yes. You're right Vee! I suspect a little goes a long way------I'll start VERY small and build and buff as I go. I can see this working with my bronzer and similarly hued blush.

I'm loving the texture---it's so soft and smooth.

So glad it worked out for you. It looks it would be a pretty shade for blush too.

So I swatched my becca copper next to the new kashuk highlighter that just came out. Very similar but not exact dupes. The darker rose is becca's. They are both gorgeous rose golds!

I just saw that highlighter on a blog this morning! I'm tempted to go pick that up with the eyeshadow palette.

Hi guys! I'm new to this thread and debated subscribing because I have a feeling you all will make me spend all my money on highlighters! But then i figured that wasn't necessarily a bad thing

Here are my swatches I posted to Instagram earlier ::

(I/'m MAC NC50)

Oh my god guys....

I love this.. so much.
I put it on without makeup and it seemed too dark for a highlight, but I think on top of my blush it will glow. I'll try it tomorrow @_@ omg I love this.. I kinda wanna use it as a shadow lol




On the other hand.. wth Estee Lauder.... there's like nothing showing up on me . :/
