This blush has been a long-time favorite for many guests due to its beautiful color range and blendability. However, recent changes in packaging and the removal of the built-in brush have led to disappointment among loyal users. While the blush offers a natural finish and is easy to apply, concerns about pigmentation and durability have emerged. Guests appreciate the variety of shades available, making it suitable for different skin tones, but the new compact design has not met expectations.

No brush???
I was/am so glad to finally find a blush that is the perfect color and consistency for my skin. BUT... who in the world thought it would be a good idea to offer this product without a brush for application? There is no mention on the packaging, and really this makes the product useless as I cannot carry it with me. I can't imagine that anyone would disagree, and I don't understand how this final product got approved.

HI there barbgee, it’s wonderful to hear that the shade and texture feel just right for you. We’re sorry, though, that the lack of an included applicator has made the product less convenient to use, and that this wasn’t clear on the packaging. We can understand why that would be frustrating when you want to apply your blush on the go. Your feedback is valuable, and we’ll make sure it’s shared with the appropriate internal teams.

No Brush Anymore
Like the product and have used for years but now with NO brush included. Cheap and wrong.

Put the brush back!
I have used this blush for almost 10 years, and the primary reason I selected it was for the built in brush compartment and brush. It was the key differentiator when there are dozens of similar powder blushes out there! If you travel a lot and take your makeup on the go, it's very inconvenient to cart around separate brushes that get dirty in your makeup bag. Please bring back the brush! If plastic is a concern, make the handle out of bamboo. The only reason I am still using this product today is because the compartment is so far still there and so I'm washing out and reusing an old brush.

We have shared your request to bring back the applicator directly with our packaging and product development teams.

Do not like the new blush packaging - no brush
Put the brush back into the compact for the blush. This is totally unacceptable. I've used this product for many years but looking elsewhere now for future purchases. As people say - if it isn't broke, don't "fix" it. It is not longer suitable under the new packaging for me. Listing to your customers before you lose them all. Thank you.

Poor Target packing resulted in product damage.
Item arrived completely broken up. Target did not bubble wrap to ensure it arrived intact. Highly disappointed in Target, not the product.

Has the formula changed?
I’ve been buying this blush for many many years. There have been more than one occasion when I couldn’t find it in Tender Rose and have had to go to multiple stores and/or order online but I know that I use a popular shade and I need to plan ahead so it has not been a problem. Overall, I’ve been very happy with the product but the last purchase (February 2026) has crumbled away and is gone in just a month. I bought two (at the fourth store I visited) and it is crumbling as well. I’m hoping these were from an unusual bad batch but am wondering if the formula was changed. I hope not because I’m not buying new blush every single month!

I like the blush, however it was not packed with any cushion or care. It came in a million pieces just shattered. Disappointing I was waiting awhile for the delivery. The blush is a beautiful color just sad about the way it arrived.

L'Oreal True Match blush is my favorite!
This is my favorite blush. I don’t understand why it wasn’t available in the store. The rack was empty. There was none of this brand blush, in any shade.

Still No Brush Included
I have been buying this blush in Baby Blossom for years. It's the perfect blush. However, it doesn't come with the little flat brush anymore. I have kept my little brush and transfer it to the new blush but I can't do that forever. I don't understand WHY Loreal doesn't include a brush anymore. I just bought the blush again and thought it would have been fixed by now, but no! Still no brush. I guess they don't read customer feedback.

Good blush
I have been purchasing Baby Blossom and Tender Rose for years! Love them. I never used the brush that used to come with the package. I have blush brushes that work much better.

Recent reformulation?
I’m a cool, pale girlie who uses Spiced Plum (C7-8). I bought some new recently, and it seems like the color is warmer than it used to be. A cool-toned blush shouldn’t go warm brown or orangey on a cool pink undertone. Sadly, I can’t use this anymore.
1 reply from LeCare team - 7 months ago
Hello! Thank you for reaching out about our True Match Blush. We are sorry to hear that the shade C7-8 Spiced Plum did not meet your expectations for a cool-toned finish, and we have shared your valuable feedback with our team. At L'Oréal Paris, we are committed to constant innovation, which can occasionally involve minor formula updates to improve our products. To help you find a shade that perfectly complements your cool pink undertone, we invite you to explore our other options and use the Virtual Try-On tool on our website to see our current shade lineup in real-time.

Tarhet cuatomer aeevixe sucks!
This review is not against the product it’s against Target. They sold me a blush that was completely broken. They wouldn’t allow me to return at the car drive up where it was given to me. They said I had to come in. The customer service is terrible.

Poor quality of compact
I love the blush, but the container is terrible. The hinge breaks and then the top breaks off. I bought a second one, was very careful with it and the same thing happened. I loved the old container. I will have to look for a new product, and I have used this one for years.

Brush no longer included
No brush anymore. Since people have been asking for many months about the lack of a brush, has any “higher up” gotten back to you as to why?

Eh they ok
From top on my wrist to bottom: Subtle sable Rosy outlook Apricot kiss Photos included show the blush colors in different lighting Loved the color Apricot! Such a pretty color on my light medium olive skin tone. Rosy outlook was a light bubble gum pinky shade that I could ware but kinda did not really look that best on me. Subtle sable looked like a could be a good bronzer shade on me but really orange on my olive skin tone. Did not enjoy that shade as much as I thought I would. Overall, these blushes are NOT super pigmented, BUT you definitely can build them up so that they can be a bit more punchy. My reason for returning them and for only giving them three stars is that they didn’t last all day and didn’t wear well throughout my workday and I don’t do anything crazy. I have an office job. So I returned them because I want something that looks good all day and stays on all day.
