    It has some nice blushing. But based on color, I would pass. It's too orange for my taste and will brown out terribly as an adult.

    Light yellow = yellow

    orange = brown

    flecks of orange or brown = brown

    more flecks = more brown

    You want light yellow and minimal flecks of anything else.

    Orange will turn to brown so look for one with as little orange as possible

    Along with color I like a lot of blushing, but that little pastel the OP posted isn't awful IMO.

    I think it's looks alright. I think the lighting is what's making it look weird.
