Elegant - I'm shocked you don't have any of the ambient lighting powders!!I was lucky enough to get the palette with dim, radiant, and incandescent. I also have diffused and luminous. I don't wear MAC foundation but I would guess I'm in the NW15-20 range, have pale skin with yellow and pink undertones - all of the powders work on me. I use radiant as a blush or in place of bronzer since it's warm Dim and diffused are amazing setting/finishing powders. The quality of the powder is amazing and they make your skin look airbrushed. Highly recommend.
Okay...back to the blushes. I wore Diffused Heat and this is a nice coral/poppy color on me. It's a keeper. I don't think the color itself is unique but it looks so natural on the skin.
Trying Radiant Magenta tomorrow.

If you are pale, everything but ethereal, diffused and luminous may be too dark to use as all-over-face powder >.< Lot's of pale girls use Mood powder as a blush and radiant and dim as subtle bronzer.pale NW15 but my skin is like yours pink & yellow. I am going to have to get the ALP next for sure. Have you tried the lavender one? Thanks! I am really in the with the blushes, quality & that amazing airbrushed look. I can't wait to hear what you think of RM.

Well I wouldn't open them myself. I would ask someone who works there to open one for me so I could see it before purchasing it. I've done this in the past with the chubby lip pencils because I once got one that had clearly been opened, then had to drive the half hour back to the store to return it. (This is why I almost always buy makeup online when it's from someplace that has it out for people to take up to the register themselves.) But you make a good point about the online gifts with purchase. I do love those.I think they would scowl at you in store if you went opening the blushes before you purchase them >.< There was quite few incidents when people purchased new product in store, only to find out it was swatched D:
Sometimes sephora has really good VIB gifts online with 35$ purchase, which can be worth around 30$, I find those better than 10% or 15% off

Ok I will get Diffused then. I wrote that one down to get after watching that videoI wouldn't buy this one sight unseen. I'm about the same tone as you and Mood Light doesn't seem lavender on me at all. All the others have descriptions that are spot-on. And I'll just put in another plugged for Diffused, which is my very favourite.
Me too! I wore it today blended over my cheekbones for some added dimension over Nars Amour.
Thanks doll!

Lol@ Veronikawithak, I am safe as Kaori already gave feedback on ME so that saves me . With the luck I have my bet is that I am going to be buying. Its basically impossible to hold make up junkies who try to quit cold turkey to anything. All the Heroine Heaux can attest to that!
