MAC Cream Soda Powder Blush (available here) - $22
Blush like Betty with the all-new shade Cream Soda, a light neutral coral for cheeks and face with a satin finish. Part of the MAC Archie's Girls Makeup Collection out for Spring 2013, this blush comes in a special compact featuring Archie's favourite Blonde-Next-Door. Limited edition.Part of Betty's side of the MAC Archie's Girls Collection, Cream Soda is a light neutral coral powder blush that comes in the limited edition Archie's-inspired packaging - all white and with Betty on the cover.
MAC Cream Soda is a soft neutral peach-coral, and because it is a satin finish, there is a bit of a sheen to it. The color in itself is quite light, but what you see in the pan is what you get on the skin. On my darker skin, this is a little difficult to show, especially in photos, but I hope the swatches help:

While this might look like a "why bother dabbing anything on" sort of color, at least for my skin tone, actually though it shows up as a soft, subtle hint of peach that I quite like. It also gives a bit of a sheen (not shimmer) and warmth to my skin. This would probably be a better blush for lighter skin tones than mine, but I find this just perfect for sunny days when all I want is a hint of color (nothing too harsh or pink). Despite being such a light color, there is no chalkiness to this blush which makes it wearable even on my darker skin.
