Review: MAC Stereo Rose

Monday 14 January 2013


Today I thought I'd so a review of the recently re-released cult MAC product, Stereo Rose. I've heard so much about this product that I definitely sucumbed to the hype when I heard it was being released again in the Apres Chic collection and thus far, I am enjoying it but it hasn't made it's way into my favourites just yet!

MAC Stereo Rose £21.50

The beautiful look to the product is something that definitely translates once on the skin to create a coral shade with golden shimmer running through it. The colour definitely leans to more of a yellow toned pink rather which I find works far more flattering on a number of skintones. Like the majority of the MSF's, Stereo Rose is good in terms of pigmentation but I find does need reapplying every couple of hours or so to maintain it's full coral shade.


As you can see, it definitely has a lot of shimmer so if you're not a fan of this I would definitely stay clear! For me, I do see why people would love this product especially for the warmer months but I wouldn't say it's wowed me as far as longevity and amazing colour pay off goes for the price it is.

In terms of avaliability you may still find this in some stores around the UK but if not, I think this blush by Vivo (stocked in Tesco's!) is an amazing dupe :)

What do you think of Stereo Rose?

  2. I think this is such a gorgeous colour but I'm a little put off at the amount of shimmer it contains! I do love a blusher with good pigmentation however, it is such a pain to keep reapplying!

    Love your blog.
