Hi everyone! These blushes are part of NYX Spring Collection 2012. When I first saw these online, I got so excited that I hurriedly ordered two shades through pre order. The Stick Blush shade in Magnolia was sent to me by Charmaine of Starmaine Shop (https://www.facebook.com/starmaineshop?ref=ts). This costs 275 pesos at Starmaine Shop. The packaging reminds me a lot of Nichido blush sticks. On the other hand, the idea of a stick blush reminds me of Nars multiple stick or the ELF all over color stick. The packaging is made of plastic. Surprisingly, the packaging is quite sturdy. The cap locks securely and does not come off easily. The size of these blushes are really cute. Like the mini Tarte cheek stains (I have seen one before). They are very handy and light. I do not have qualms bringing all three shades in my makeup kit everyday.
These blushes are really pigmented. I apply it in a dabbing motion or I swipe it directly on my cheeks. Then, I blend the blush on my cheeks like crazy. The shade is very buildable. You can apply one layer and this will immediately add a hint of color on your cheeks. The consistency is quite thick and creamy. Compared to NYX cream blushes (which I love to bits), these stick blushes have slightly dewy to velvety finish while NYX Cream Blushes have a very dewy finish on my skin. Although these blushes glide smoothly when applied, I have a hard time blending thenm on my cheeks esp. on top of my foundation. Lack of proper blending creates weird patches and streaks so, be careful. There was a time when I failed to blend the product well that a small lump of product accumulated on the temples of my cheeks.YAY!! The trick is to blend the product really well. Blending the product really well will not only create a natural pop of color on the cheeks but it also makes the blush lasts longer. I always apply this with the use of my fingers but I guess using brushes is much better. Since these blushes have velvety finish, this does not feel sticky at all especially when it is completely dried and blended.
It does not have a weird scent. It did not cause me any break out or rashes.
Hypoallergenic . The best thing about NYX products, they do not test on animals.
