I bought Pleasureflush....I couple of thoughts

First, let me just say I love this site. Now onto Pleasureflush.



I just received Pleasureflush MSF today. I was expecting something super duper special considering all the buzz surrounding it. Well, my first impression was it looked almost exactly like Cheeky Bronze. So I went to my stash and pulled out Cheeky Bronze and compared them side by side in the sunlight. Pleasureflush is slightly more pinkish maybe even light violetish. It has the same gold veining as Cheeky Bronze, but none of the bronziness. I wore it today over Sur blush and it really is lovely. As a matter of fact, considering what I paid for it, I dusted it on my forehead, eyelids, chest and neck. I may even go back for more and wear it to bed. Seriously, I'm glad I had the chance to get it.

A private sale from somebody who lives near me. MAC really needs to re-promote this. It's absolutely gorgeous.

I have 3 of them (shhh!) and would buy more if it was repromoted.

For those who can't find it or aren't prepared to pay $100 for it, you can get an almost exact dupe of it from Laura Geller! It's the highlighter side of the Boysenberry/Amaretti Blush 'n Brighten duo, I don't know if it's available alone from Laura Geller/QVC, but I've seen many of them on eBay and you can pick them up for about $25. Okay, the highlighter part is quite small, but it still lasts for a long time and you never know, Mac might repromote it before you run out. :)

I know, I got a bit carried away, lol. I didn't pay $100 for mine though. ;) The first one was $70 from eBay, second I think was £50-ish from eBay (UK seller) and the third was $65 or so from MUA. So around £50 on average. I got my Lightscapade for £30 too, asked for a Buy It Now price when one was listed and seller only wanted £30, so I got it. :)

Oh yeah, the Laura Geller one is a very very good dupe. I might do a comparison on my blog if I get around it (after half term possibly).

You are so lucky. I've been looking too but could not find any on EBay so far. Not even for $100.. There is a used one listed now but i don't want to buy used makeup. I've been on a hunt for Lightscapade and Metal Rock for a reasonable price too to complete my collection.

I saw that pleasureflush used on ebay... I've messaged about doing a buy it now with the seller but apparently a lot of people have been messaging her so she's going to see what others are offering.. I'm pretty desperate for one :(

Ladies, Thanks for all your replies. I hope all of you who are desperate for Pleasureflush have the opportunity to get one. You won't regret it.

I saw the used one on Ebay, it's now on £37 and still has 3 days to go. Crazy!

For those of you who are interested in duping Pleasureflush, I've done some comparison between Laura Geller Blush n Brighten (Boysenberry/Amaretti) and Pleasureflush. Sorry, the swatches are the other way around, so Pleasureflush on the left and LG Blush n Brighten on the right. Pretty similar, right?

I bought mine BNIB for about $85 several years ago. It's my favorite MSF. I put a little bit of it on over blush to highlight. It is really beautiful on lots of different skintones.

Since the Laura Geller blush looks so close in swatches, I'm not sure if it is worth it for you, but for me, I consider it one of my favorite make-up products ever. <3

The used Pleasureflush sold for £71 (that's over $100!) plus shipping on eBay last night!

The description said the dome was flattened, it had 65-70% left. How much would a brand new one sell for I wonder??? Crazy!
