Let me start by saying this blush stick has become my daily go-to. The #03B Magenta-Pink shade gives my fair skin the perfect natural flush - not too bold, not too subtle. What surprised me most was how effortlessly it blends. Just a few gentle taps with my fingers, and it melts into my skin like second nature.
As someone in their fifties, I appreciate how the VE-enriched formula doesn't settle into fine lines. Unlike other cream blushes I've tried (that practically required a construction crew to blend), this one feels weightless - like I'm wearing nothing at all. The round stick design makes application foolproof, fitting perfectly against my cheekbones.
I've experimented using it both on cheeks and lips - it performs beautifully for both! On lips, it leaves a lovely stain that lasts through my morning coffee. The color stays true without shifting to that dreaded orangey tone many mauve products develop.
The only drawback? The product amount seems less than expected for the price. But considering how little I need per use (a light touch goes far), one stick still lasts me months. For anyone hesitant about cream formulas or looking to simplify their routine, this multitasker is worth trying.
