Patrick Ta released his newest shade launches in January 2025. The two shades that appealed the most to me were She’s Seductive and She Goes to the Gym. I recently added Patrick Ta Beauty’s Major Headlines Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush Duos in She’s Seductive and She Goes to the Gym to my makeup collection. This blush line is the “It Girl” blush of the moment and I was super excited to receive these for Valentine’s Day. For close-ups, swatches, product info, and my full review keep reading.

Product Info

While the Major Headlines Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush Duos aren’t a new product, I wanted to provide a quick overview. Each blush duo retails for $38.00 USD and are available at Sephora and online at Patrick Ta Beauty. With 18 shades available, this blush is described as a viral duo compact of powder and cream flush formulas to achieve long-wearing bold colors that melt into skin for a beautiful, radiant glow. 

Shades

She’s Seductive – Described as a “warm rosey beige,” She’s Seductive is the blush tone I just couldn’t make my mind up about. I gravitate towards rose/neutral pink blushes and I couldn’t tell whether there was a hint of pink in the blush, or if I saw the term “rosey” and intuited that it had a slight rose hue. In real life, it’s almost more of a salmon color. What do you think?

She Goes to the Gym – Described as a “cool mauve rose,” this blush duo is the first true mauve that Patrick has released. Admittedly in real life I would say the creme comes across as more berry-toned, but after watching numerous TikTok videos, I decided to take the plunge even though I knew that it would likely be a bit deeper than I normally venture. As I said earlier, I personally gravitate towards mauve/rose/neutral pink tones. However, it does look very pretty.

Application/Swatches

As evidenced by my carefully curated blush collection, I am a true pink neutral blush lover. While I can appreciate that other people enjoy peach, coral, beige, lilac, teracotta, berry blushes etc, they just don’t do it for me. Give me all the pinky browns, roses, and mauves.

Blush Close-Up

The LORAC Color Source Buildable Blush retails for $23 and is available at Ulta, Lorac Cosmetics, and Amazon. It is described as a “plum/brown matte” but I would say it’s more of a satin pinky tan shade which when built up, can lean a bit plum. I have had this in my collection for a terrifying number of years, and while I’ve hit pan on it, it’s still performing strong. It’s my go-to every day shade.

The Gucci Luminous Matte Beauty Blush retails for $49 and is available at Sephora, Gucci Beauty, and Nordstrom. It’s described as a “muted rose” and I have to say that this color has a drop more depth than most of my other neutral pink blushes. When I apply this, it’s more of a “dirty rose” that almost leans a bit plum. I enjoy it, but it is more of a select statement look for me.

The H&M Powder Blusher can be found at H&M Europe and retails for £8.99. I feel so guilty for listing this blush because you can’t get it in the states. I brought this home with me after my trip to Poland in 2023 (along with another blush listed below) and it is one of my absolute favorites. You may think it looks boring, but it’s a subtle shade but it’s very precise in where it lands. The pink color is such a good, neutral pink. It’s not too brown, it’s not too pink, it’s not tool cool and not too warm. It’s a subtle shade but it’s very precise in where it lands.
