this is a hard question!!
i love beauty powder blushes because you dont need to add another product to add sheen and they look natural, but you can layer on more product for a dramatic look.. they are incredible!!
but i also love MSF's because they have that natural glow to the skin with a tiny hint of colour
but if i did have to pick one.. probably beauty powder blush

MSF's
Love them to death and I find them more versatile than BPB's (sorry BPB's I love you too but all my MSF's are my HG)

I agree with this, I never really understood what the big deal was with MSFs. I kept trying them but I don't know, it just adds a hint of color and lots of Glitter on me, I'd rather get the nice sheen with a bit more color with the BPBs. I love these things!
The going rate for older MSFs just seems insane to me as well, if you really like them and use them a lot then it's just going to be used up and be of no value to you at all. (I do understand the collector aspect of it but that's not my thing) All of the MSFs I've ever owned and used quickly lost the dome shape and product. They didn't seem to last long to me.

tough one... hm... but i'd have to say msfs because they glow! my roomate always says i have too much blush but if i wore just msfs, i'm sure he'd say otherwise. im loving the N collection msfs especially!
you guys should try silk naturals' loose mineral glows if you dont have that many msfs... they are cheap and beautiful! a sample is like $1.25 for a 5g jar. a fullsize is like $7. they are super fine milled and super silky. i actually like their texture better than MAC msfs! im gonna buy more later when i get aquainted to the foundation sample i purchased. so yeah... go look up silk naturals

I am loving the new beauty powder blushes but I will also have a special place in my heart for MSFs. Yes have not been as great recently but they will always have a little something special over any blush IMO.
MAC just needs to get better about putting out more original MSFs.

I agree...the beauty powders give you a more natural glow while even the not-so-glittery MSF's still seem to have way to much shimmer. The MSF's are nice but I never understood the fuss.

Count me in as another who has never understood the fascination with MSFs. They are just too glittery for me. I am loving the BPBs tho!

The new BPB are my favs, they look so natural on. I never got into all the shine & glitter from the MSF
