MAC Color Forecast Swatches Blush Ombre
These are the latest blushes from MAC set to release Feb 11th. If you can’t wait till Thursday you can head on over to maccosmetics.com now.
They come in the same compact that the MAC Mineralize Skin Finishes come in, so they are extremely large. Hopefully you will love them like I do.
A powder blush featuring a shade wave of gentle ombre hues. Ultra-fine formula provides the cheeks with flawless, medium-buildable coverage and lightly pearled, natural-looking radiance. Limited edition.maccosmetics.com

Ripe Peach
Color Breakdown
- Ripe Peach- Soft coral-peach gradient.
- Azalea Blossom- Soft cool pink to muted lavender . This is nice as a blush or highlight depending on your skin tone.
- Vintage Grape- Dark plum to grape. Great for darker skin tones.
- Springsheen- Warm tan to brown. This one is great as a blush for some and great as a contour for others. You can see the two tones from tan to brown.
Price: $25 US/€ 22(not 100% sure)
Locations :maccosmetics.com, Stores in Feb 11th
Pros:
- Soft
- Blends easily
- Pigmented
- Great Size
- Great in photos
- Unique gradient
- Subtle healthy shimmer. It is not glitter or frosty, just a slight radiance
Cons:
- $25 for a blush :\, but the compact is large
Package:
Sleek and easy to open and close. No finger prints here
Overall: I love these blushes. The gradient is gorgeous but the actual color only appears to be one on the face. You can strategically grab color from each side but the color difference is very subtle. Very soft and pigmented.

Looks good, thanks for the swatches! I think you have Springshine and Vintage Grape photos mixed around though, and labelled as Springsheen.
I can’t wait to see these in person!
I fixed Springshine, but which photo is mixed up? Thank you!!!
With such little difference upon application, this product makes me feel MAC is getting too gimicky. :/
i agree, starting to re-think whether i really want them now…
uh ohh
lOL at your disclaimer. That was funny!
They’re SOOO pretty, I can’t wait until I get mine in the mail! But do you think Vintage Grape is similar to On A Mission from the Styles Warrior collection at all?
All in all, thanks for the swatches, always such a great reference!

I think Style Warriors is not as purple. I don’t have it in front of me so I can’t say for sure.
oh i cant wait until my order arrives

I love ripe peach and azalea blossom

these are really pretty, i think i like the vintage grape the best
i like ripe peach..i am getting that one…now i want springshine too!!! which of the two would you recommend more?
Thanks for posting such clear swatches! Do you happen to know if the blush ombres contain talc or zea mays (corn starch) as dominant ingredients?
Could you show ripe peach on your cheeks?
I love ripe peach
Im buying Ripe Peach as soon as the collection hits sweden!<3
I hadn’t given much thought to these since I’m not too big on blush but seeing the swatches and review mske me want one. I love the ripe peach and azalea!
Springshine is really dark, but maybe its good for contouring. I love vintage grape though! And ripe peach is a perfect name! xD
I cannot describe to you how much I love the Ripe Peach blush.. oh my gosh.. It’s so pretty to look at in the container, even prettier ON me, haha!
they look so pretty!
i want to cry! i’m sooo in love with ripe peach but it was sold out by the time i went to buy it
ugh, i’m so sad!
The peach looks really nice, I have warm undertones so I thiiink it would work with that. These things you really have to see in person. That dark purple, Im kind of fair skin color annnnd I cant imagine how that would look on my contour areas, can we say Cirque De Sole??
love this!!! the colors are great and the shading really looks like a ripe peach! when i go to mac tuesday im getting this thanks for the review!
