UPDATE!
Well, more like a part deux…or an addendum, if you will, to last week’s Extra Dimension post. You might remember that there’s a new line of blushes and highlighters in the exquisitely soft and long-lasting Extra Dimension formula now at MAC counters and online, and these two blushes, Telling Glow and Faux Sure, are the ones I was waiting to swatch.
Ooh! So worth the wait. Aren’t they beautiful?
Bright coral Telling Glow (which also has golden pearl in it) and pinkish mauve Faux Sure (haha, love that name) both have warm, subtle terra cotta undertones, and I think they flatter the heck outta toasty caramel-colored cheeks. My fellow tan babes, you’re gonna want to get these ASAP!
Available now at MAC in the permanent line
They’re $28 each, and you can find them now with the rest of the MAC Extra Dimension Blushes and Skinfinishes at MAC counters and online.
It sounds weird to hear myself say this out loud, because it was drizzling and overcast today, but summer is right around the corner. If you have summer makeup on your mind (like I totally do), then either of these blushes should rock with a slick of sheer hot pink or coral gloss (and maybe some gold liquid liner and lots of waterproof mascara up in the mix). 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
I ma not a tan babel that is for sure, but Faux Sure looks so stunning. And the makeup you suggested… Lets just say that in my mind I am currently sitzing at the French Riviera, wearing that exact thing and feeling fabulous.
Babe was what I meant, no idea what a tan babel would be. Sigh.

Ha! I’m mentally with you there, too!
I’m a tan babe! Or semi-babe at least. These look purdy.

You’ll love these then, Chris! Happy Friday!
I’ve heard nothing but rave reviews about this release! I’ll definitely pick up at least one, although probably one of the paler pinks or peaches! I love a subtle shimmer/pearl blush, and I’m impressed with the range of depths and undertones.

Hi Katie,
This formula is one of MAC’s best. I hope you do get a chance to try one of the blushes; they’re amazing!
Love Faux Sure ?

Hi Eesha,
Me too! It’s going to be so pretty on tanned skin come July/August!
Aww man I have been trying to avoid these but they are calling my name!

Can’t wait to see them on your beautiful face, Indya! Happy Friday. 🙂
Definitely worth the wait!! They’re both beautiful and I know they’ll look gorgeous on deeper skin tones too. I want them both!

Hi Fancie,
Nice to see you! I hope you get the chance to swatch/wear these shades as they’ll look beautiful on you!
Telling Glow is so pretty!
I picked up Cheeky Bits and Sweets for my Sweet blushes.And I really love them both! Faux Sure is pretty but Telling Glow is different than the ones I have so I’ll check this one out in store.
i don’t see these available yet on the mac website. still says “coming soon”
These two are gorgeous! I’m so sure they’ll both look great on tanned skin in the summer!

I don’t really layout in the Sun during the summer, so I rarely develop a tan. But these are very pretty colors. I just wonder if they may be too pigmented for someone who is on the pale side. But if I had tanned skin, I would purchase it.

Ugh! Why, oh why did I have to go and read this? Now I am compelled to buy Telling Glow. I have no willpower!
Hi Pamela,
Oh, it’s SO pretty. I wore it today on my cheeks and barely needed any for a golden coral glow. A pan should last you a really long time!
Faux Sure is stunning!

Hi karen of all the shades which one is favorite? I’m your skin tone and I got my eye on hard to get.
Hey Karen! You and I have pretty much the same skin tone so whenever I want to see how a certain product will look on me, I check to see how it looks on you first! I’ve never owned a M.A.C. Blush but when I saw these two swatches they looked beautiful! I’m waiting for them to be back in stock but I’d love to see how these colors look on your cheeks!!
I love these! I really want to try it but I have acne prone skin and certain powders make me breakout. I wonder if you’ve had this issue?
