Shoot. I do. I have went through 1 Pink Cult already. I get a fav and hit it like crazy and I am picky about it but ones I love I get an extra of for travel. I have hit pan on a few blushes in my life after I started wearing it. Strada comes to mind too.

That we did! But @hopefulheart still needs to see if she can get her hands on this baby! LOL Wow, I guess after Dandelion comes out I will have a hella lot of blushes!
I called up to my local MAC counter at Dillard's on a whim. They totally had ONE CB left!! She is putting it aside for me to pick up tomorrow since they are closing in like 20 minutes! Ahhh!!! I'm so excited!!! I can't believe they had it still available.
But i will tell you Dandelion is about 2 shades lighter than CB. And less corally peach, more pink.
:drool:

Same here. I am pretty picky too about backing up blush, but I have been wearing this baby every day since it arrived---it is getting some serious love!

And Dandelion is different from Pink Tea and Pink Cult as well. I swatched em against those two as well, thinking that it may have been one of them, but it's not. :nope: it's along the same lines, but it's different.

YES! You are going to LOVE it! Thank goodness we didn't buy them ALL! LOL Let us know what you think :)
I will definitely let you know! I can't believe that they still had one available. That's insane!

:yahoo: I'm glad they are different! I have PT and want to pick up PC and Dandelion (if you couldn't already tell!). :haha:

How did you get your hands on Dandelion already? I take it that it is one of the benefits of being a makeup artist (getting goodies early?). You are a lucky lady!

I hope it's got that GREAT glowing from within texture like the Osbourne blushes - then I'd go nuts

for it. Pink Tea and Pink Cult just were too powdery and with too much chalkiness for my skin texture, even though I loved the colors. At Dusk's been the one I've turned to instead, but I'd love a standard blush option at last.

Bareness is that for me in ED. Pink Cult has never been powdery on me. Not a glow but not powdery like some others.

I totally agree! It was the lack of chalkiness that one me over for CB, especially since I am NC30. Looks like Mac's blushes are getting better and better!

It doesn't have the shimmery glow that CB has, but it isn't powdery (tho i never found PT ot PC to be powdery at all either). Dandelion is nice and creamy!

The new pink Moody Blooms blush has that same awesome texture too - I guess it's a MAC blush trend!!! I'm excited, but oh my - it's not like I don't already have tons of blush, lol.

Were people getting shimmer in their CBs? I could not get through all of the Osbournes mega-thread. It's definitely got a glow from within on me, but haven't encountered the shimmer. I wonder if it was a batch issue, or if it's just because I haven't worn it over foundation yet and the shimmer gets lost in my au naturel pores?

In any case, I had to really force myself not to BU At Dusk when it got repromo'ed, even though my pan has a giant dent in it, since I kept telling myself there would be something even better down the road. Looks like Dandelion might be it!
