Okay, first impression? The packaging is SO cute – very luxe feeling for a drugstore-ish price point.

The color Apricot Spritz is this perfect peachy-taupe hybrid that gives the most natural 'I just took a brisk walk' flush. Not too orange, not too brown – just right for my medium skin tone.

Application is foolproof: I literally draw little hearts on my cheeks and blend with fingers. Zero brush needed! It melts into skin like butter but doesn't feel greasy (unlike some reviews mentioned).

Staying power surprised me – still visible after my 9-hour workday (though I do set it lightly with powder). The vitamin E makes it feel hydrating, which is great for my dry cheeks.

Only con? The marble design faded after a few uses so now it's just a solid color stick. Still works the same though!

Bonus: Used it as eyeshadow yesterday and OMG the monochromatic look was *chef's kiss*
