| MAC Styleseeker Powder Blushes in Worldly Wealth, Hidden Treasure |
The MAC Styleseeker collection features three powder blushes, called Worldly Wealth, Hidden Treasure and Supercontinental ("Bright Cute Coral"). Of the three, only the former two interested me.

| MAC Styleseeker Worldly Wealth L -> R: Heavy swatch, Buffed-out |
Worldly Wealth is described by MAC as "Shimmering Peachy Bronze" and has a frost finish. This is a very shimmery (almost metallic) bronze with golden orange undertones. It's a wonderful highlight for darker skins, or I can see it being a fantastic summer "sunkissed glow" shimmery bronzer. It's a strange choice for a fall shade, but given the orange undertones, I can see where MAC is going with this (it really does complement Hidden Treasure quite nicely). It is really soft, pigmented and blends beautifully with no trouble.

| MAC Styleseeker Hidden Treasure L -> R: Heavy swatch, Buffed-out |
Hidden Treasure is described by MAC as "Rich Burnt Red". This has a satin finish, but I did find it a bit of a dryer texture than most of the other satin shades I've used - it needs a light hand and a dual fibre brush, and needs to be built-up and buffed-out gradually, to avoid it looking patchy on the skin. It's a slightly-rusty slightly-berry red and highly pigmented, and has the tiniest hint of gold shot through it (not enough to make it frosted, just enough to make it interesting).

| And... the two together |
This is where I love them; built on top of each other. Given that Hidden Treasure is harder to blend-out, I suggest applying this on top of Worldly Wealth, but either that or applying Worldly Wealth on top works nicely. You get a lovely faintly bronzed somewhat frosted but highly pigmented result that will last you for about seven-eight hours. Not one I'll use at 06h30 when I'm in a hurry(!), but definitely yum.
