theBalm Hot Mama!

I received a small sample of Hot Mama in an Ipsy bag years ago. Loved it. Bought it for a few years, and then tried something else. Well, that wasn't nearly as good. This color helps me glow without looking like I have blush on. Plus, it's great for a quick eyeshadow - just sweep it on with your blush brush and your eyes look lively! So glad I gave myself the give of Hot Mama this Christmas!

This color is so flattering. I love it! Whether I'm pale in the winter or have some color in the summer, this blush is so flattering. It has just enough sparkle to highlight my face perfectly while not looking tacky. I've gotten a lot of compliments when wearing this blush. I prefer a more natural look, but this blush still works for me. The packaging is portable but large enough to get a nice swath of color on your blush brush. My daughter has also used this and loved it. It lasts well, I had the same blush for years, and just replaced it recently so that I would have a back-up. I've also tried the other shades, but this is my favorite. I'm fair-skinned with blue eyes, and have worn this with blonde highlights, platinimum blonde and pink hair.

This blush is a dupe for Nars Orgasm blush. The Hot Mama blush is just as good as the Nars for a fraction of the cost! It goes on smooth and the color is beautiful. A little goes a long way so it will last for a long time. I will definitely purchase again!

I really like the Balm Hot Mama blush! The color is beautiful, and I love that it has a built-in highlight effect, giving my cheeks a nice, subtle glow. It’s perfect for adding a soft, radiant finish. However, I do wish it was a bit more pigmented. I find that I have to build it up quite a bit to get the intensity I’m looking for. That said, it’s still a great blush that gives a natural, flushed look with a hint of shimmer. If you prefer a more subtle finish, this is a great option!

After Nars reformulated their blushes I had to stop using them because everything looked orange on my skin. I bought this blush and it was the perfect replacement.Please never stop making this!!

I really like the color and I can tell it will last me awhile.

This is the first blush I’ve used that has genuinely lasted all day! Usually blush wears off within an hour or two it feels. This one lasted and looked just as fresh at the end of the day. My husband even said my makeup looked good, unprompted, and he doesn’t usually notice when I do anything different! I’m not the biggest fan of the “Hot Mama” packaging lol but the product is great!

The color is not bad. It's just that I have spanish skin color, but a little bit pale. I feel like pink colors don't look as well on me. I prefer warmer colors, I but it because it's suppose to be similar to NARS orgasm. I liked it that it wasn't very shimmery.
