I snagged MAC's Don't be shy blush recently from MUA . This is the only true cotton candy baby pink that doesn't turn rose or reddish on me. It is a frost finish and its really shimmery and pretty. I even purchased MAC's pink swoon with hopes of it being the dupe for it but sadly pink swoon turned reddish on me. My skin picks up the red in everything! I am totally in love with it but i am so so so afraid of using it as i will have a really hard time finding a replacement for a decent price. Look at the link below, It's going for $69.90 to $89.90 on ebay and only 2 sellers are selling it!! Keeping my fingers crossed that karen would clone this. I would be eternally grateful if you do... pretty please?

Me too! Its my ultimate colour for a lippie and i am still searching for the perfect pink lippie.. I have heard raves about Real Doll from Barbie loves MAC collection being THE ONE. I am unable to get my hands on one though... That's real doll there on the right and middle together with Don't be Shy Blush in the pics below..

Possibly redundant, but have you tried Tart or Tart Light? Because those don't have any red that I can tell - I get the 'red in everything' problem too but not with Tart - it's a blue-based pink, which looks a lot like the MAC one.

Yes, i second Rhys, Tart is absolutely pink, no peach or red in it, it is blue-based indeed, a beautiful medium pink, my favourite! And it does look similar to the MAC one.

Tart looks a bit scary in the jar but looks gorgeous on! It's one of my faves because I'm quite pinkyfaced and that gives me a cute bit of colour without adding to reddness at all, you should definately grab a sample. I have Very Berry and its more plummy reddish than pink, it's lovely! I don't like overly obvious lips its like a very sheer stain with gloss and its great in the day for work, just a dab rubbed in with my finger, and at night you can put it on like normal lipstick for a polished finish to your look without looking like too much if you prefer to concentrate on your eyes.

Ah, i was hoping Evry Berry would really be a cool pink and not reddish! MAybe it looks reddish on your lips, do you have peachy lips? Mine are a cool pale brownish pink.

They're kind of a similar to bloom, slightly slightly paler but the same colour
