Decided to post a dupe swatch for two of my favourite coral/peach blushes:
MAC Modern Mandarin & Illamasqua Lover
When looking at the blushes in their packaging, both blushes do seem to look very similar in shade.
However when swatched, there is a clear distinction between them.
Described as 'red-orange' by MAC, MAC Modern Mandarin has a satin finish which leaves a slight sheen and glow on the skin. Illamasqua Lover (soft apricot) on the other hand is a truly matte blush with no hint of shimmer or sheen.
In terms of colour, MAC Modern Mandarin leans more towards coral, whilst
Illamasqua Lover shows up as a more peachy-orange shade.
Both blushes wear very well and are suitable for all skin tones. As they
are highly pigmented, use a light hand when applying on fairer skin
tones to gradually build up the colour.
