The shade:
The shade is named “Reckless” and it is a cool and rosy pink blush. It shows up on the skin as a cool toned pink. For very fair complexions, it provides a lovely hint of soft flush on the cheeks. For medium complexion, it provides a natural finish with a slight colour but dark skin tones may not find it of much use because it hardly shows up much on this complexion. It gives light hint of colour but what I really like about the blush is the pearly sheen which it provides.Marc Jacobs Beauty Shameless Blush Reckless gives a healthy glow to the cheeks along with a hint of colour. The pearly sheen gets a 10 on ten from me. It requires multiple swipes for the colour to show but that is not a point to complain because there is no fear of going overboard with this one. It blends like a dream and gives a flawless finish most of the time. It does not highlight dry patches or open pores.
Staying Power: Marc Jacobs Beauty Shameless Blush Reckless Staying power of this blush is average. It stays a good 5 hours which is acceptable. With a little touch-up, you can make it a winner.
