Swatch:
In this swatch, you can see how beautiful this blush looks. It looks the same if applied on eyes over a primer but it is really sheer on face even with a good amount of product but adds a nice yet very light shade.

Makeup Look where I used this blush:
I used this blush in this makeup look. The blush is rather visible in the picture because it is applied really heavily, which for me is an excessive use of blush plus, it is mixed with the bronzer I used in the look.

Overall Experience & Recommendation:
I am not really happy with this product to be used as a blush when I need color quickly but it works great for eyes and to add some color back into my skin over foundation. I am not saying that I hate it because it somehow gives a good result when I want a sheer finish. If I apply it without anything else on my face, it really smooths the skin and gives a glowy finish. I believe it is suitable for darker complexions, as the description says. I also use this blush under my eyes, sometimes when my concealer gives me whitish finish and it usually happens when I am not wearing any foundation at all. A quick swipe of this blush balances the concealer and make it look fresh. I found this blush to be on the pink side than the mauve. As a blusher, this product did not make me happy but I have found some other uses for it. If you have darker skin tone, you want a blush that is not overly shimmery, gives a nice glow and light color or you have no problem with the color to show up much, you can try this product.

Cost & Availability:
This blush is available on Sweet Treat Cosmetics' website over here for $7.50. They ship worldwide and the shipping rate for international orders is $2.50 which is pretty inexpensive. Check out their Facebook fan page over here.
