NARS Cactus Flower Cream Blush

[McKinley]

Woah that's an amazing colour. One for the ladies of colour, perhaps for blush, but an awesome lippy for everyone. On dark skins, it'd give a similar look to that which Devoted blush gives to pale skins?

I was wondering about Devoted as well--I am going to order it in my next haul and see if it compares. Maybe if I add a sprinkling of Bling eyeshadow for some of the gold sparkle Cactus Flower contains. I find that Cactus Flower is quite a brilliant poppy red in real life, and that no swatch does it justice. I agree that it is simply made for deep skin tones--but paler ladies can achieve a gorgeous look if they use a micro fibre brush with a light hand. Perhaps Devoted is already the dupe I am looking for! Does anyone have it, and do they have a photograph of themselves wearing it? I find I prefer a face to a swatch on an anonymous arm! Perhaps we should start photographing Looks and posting them on this forum! Who's with me?

That would be the FOTD (face of the day) thread There are (over the course of the thread) quite a few pics of me (amongst others) wearing various looks.

Oh, and I have forever, though I haven't seen the nars cactus flower IRL, forever is very pretty (and pigmented, so I think would work well for darker skins). I just use a tiny tiny dot and blend blend blend
