theBalmShadow/Blush, DownBoy[Amazon-developed Certification] Compact by Design

This stuff is EXACTLY what I was looking for like a slightly cool tones baby pink, I like to layer it over glossier cloud paint in puff it’s the perfect shade I bought like 10 other blushes from Sephora and this won beat the pricier more well known brand names! 10/10 it’s also blurring!!

I recently fell in love with the Givenchy Le Prisme blush in the color It Girl Purple but I just cannot justify spending that much on one blusher. While this is not an exact dupe, it's pretty darn close. I have fair skin and green eyes and this blush literally just lights up my face. It goes on very smooth, is easy to blend, and lasts all day when I wear it with a matte foundation. I've used it on friends with slightly darker complexions and it looks beautiful on them also. Would absolutely recommend!

Very nice pink blush. Great pigmentation and blends nicely. This might be strange, but my 10 year old is playing an elf in a play for our community theatre. I used a little of this blush on him to add some color to his cheeks and it was even perfect on him. Looked like a natural flushed cheek and not like makeup at all. Highly recommend if you are looking for that natural flush. For reference, I'm a NC 15 and my son is even more fair.

Down Boy has turned into one of my most favorite blushes. Although it is lighter and less taupey than depicted. Long lasting and very pigmented. TheBalm never lets me down!

My go-to blush! I'm pretty pale and this is a good shade for me if I don't apply too much. It took me a while to find a blush that had no highly carcinogenic ingredients and barely any comedogenic ingredients so I'm sticking to this one. Only thing I don't like is that it has dimenthicone because that has a 1 out of 5 ranking on the comedogenic scale, so it's mildly comedogenic, and it's not the safest ingredient. Otherwise love this product.

I am experienced with makeup having at least 10 years of experience on myself and others, but for some reason, these blushes don't last as long on me as even drugstore brands. I need a cream blush to make these stay, and even then, these emphasize pores and acne, which is crazy because these are matte. I do have oily skin with a solid skin care routine, so the fact these move around so much is disappointing. This color particularly was a different undertone than I was expecting, and is not flattering on my dark tan NC 42 skin, while other light pinks are flattering on me. I would return this, but I can't return it due to Amazon policy, so I will see if I can give these blushes to my sister.

Down Boy is fabulous! I can't recommend this enough! The packaging is awesome, the shade is perfect, and it goes on so easily! A light touch is all you need, since this blush means business. I wear this daily and it's just enough to bring that rosy glow to my face. If I wanted to wear it onstage (which I definitely will very soon), it'd be easy to amp up as well.

First time writing a review!! You really can’t find this shade at the drug store. A beautiful baby pink, very cute retro. Recommend. Yes
