Cannot tell you how excited I am to receive my MAC order. MAC released their Extra Dimension collection online 2 weeks ago(one week before in stores) and the one product that I wanted the most is the Skinfinish. The shade I want is Definitely Defined, which is a silvery pink with soft rose shimmer.
As I have mentioned in my previous post on the review on the Extra Dimension blush in bareness, the texture of these products is very interesting. It is not powder and it is not cream. It is somewhere in between. With the blush, I find it you have to swirl on the product a few more times to break down the top layer and once the top layer is gone, it is much better and easier to get the product out and apply easier on your skin.
Such a gorgeous combination of colors. Lighter shade has a more silvery pink finish. The darker shade is more rosy.

Middle: swatch from the lighter shade
Right: 2 shades blended together
When the 2 shades are blended together, it gives the most beautiful rose gold shade. Quite shimmery so I would use it with a light hand and sweep on top of my cheekbones.
Here is what it looks on my cheeks( I have MAC Extra Dimension blush Flaming Chic on as well which I will do a post on later). I did not apply a lot, just on top of my cheekbones as a highlight but you can see that it gives a nice glow. I just got it so I will have to play with it some more. I also want to use the darker shade as my blush and the lighter shade as a highlighter.
