No Makeup Blush Balm

I love this color on my skin, it’s so flattering. This blush feels so good when I apply it to my face. It’s not sticky at all. Even though it’s in stick form, the consistency of it when I blend it out in my cheeks feels like pressed powder. It’s like a stick to powder formula. It blends out very easily and the color is buildable, so you can make it as pigmented as you want. It lasts throughout most of the day especially if you put a setting spray on top of it. The packaging even has a luxurious feel and look to it. I would order this exact blush again in the future.

The Perricone MD No Makeup Blush Balm is aptly named because swiping it on the apples of my cheeks felt like I wasn't wearing anything at all! I was nervous about how dark it looked because I have really fair skin, but it gave me a nice rosy cheek without being too dark. It blended well with my fingers, but I did not try it with a brush. I typically use my fingers for blending so this was not an issue for me. This is packaged beautifully and is super compact, which makes it great for on-the-go make-up kits. Being that it can be applied directly with a swipe and then blended with your fingers makes it even more travel-friendly for me. I also appreciate that this is buildable and did not upset my sensitive skin. Overall, I enjoy this product and find it plays well in my no-fuss makeup repertoire. I will likely buy more in the future and will be recommending it to my friends.

Not only is this a great blush with easily application and super easy to blend it comes in a great case. The case looks like lipstick and is so convenient for travel or for a small makeup bag versus a powder blush. The blush wears well and is my new favorite.

This is best stick blush I've used so far. I have skin that is on the oilier side and the formula is a nice mix between not too creamy that it slides off my face or too dry that it won't blend. There's no discernible scent. It's small, so it's easy to travel with, but it's so highly pigmented that it will last as long as sticks twice its size. I'm NC 13/15 and the color looks like a perfect pinkish sunburnt flush on my cheeks and nose. BUT, the biggest breakthrough for me is that this actually lasts! It's long-wearing! That's unheard of for me with most powder blushes, let alone a stick formulas. I can put this on in the morning and still see a hint of color in the evening, and that is without touching it up. I really tested it out well to determine this, but the cool thing is, it's so easy to apply and toss in my bag, it would be super simple to touch up after work/before going out and it would look freshly applied! I am so pleased with this formula that it's going on my gift list, because I know a few friends who will love it too. I can't recommend this product enough!

I really love with the Perricone MD No Makeup Blush in liquid form, so I wanted to try out the balm form to see if it was as great. I definitely prefer the liquid form as someone with dry skin. It was gel-like and easier to spread. This Blush Balm has the same beautiful shade, but it's got a waxy, siliconey texture that makes it harder to spread around with a brush. You would probably want to use your hands to blend this in. You can probably use this for the lips, but it would probably feel a little siliconey in texture. The packaging is super luxe and heavy, which is a nice touch. And the balm form is easier to use for travel. Overall, this is a solid blush balm even though I prefer the liquid version of this blush even more.

Blush is one of the few makeup products I use daily, whether or not I’m doing a full face.This blush is extremely pigmented, which I feel is slightly contradictory to the name as I had assumed it would be a sheer wash of pigment for low effort days.That being said, it is not my favorite, I have semi oily skin and while it doesn’t fade as quickly as other blush sticks—it leaves this waxy-balm feel that makes me feel my cheeks are sticky all the time.

The container of the blush stick from Perricone MD feels like a heavy, very expensive tube of lipstick. It is a dark, gunmetal gray and just looks sharp and fancy. I had a hard time getting it open until I realized that you have to twist it to get it open. I was not sure about the color at first glance, but I liked it once I got it on. It blended well to a matte finish on my skin. This color was very sheer on my skin which I like. I much prefer a natural looking blush to something bold which is why I was concerned about the color at first. Once I set it, it did not rub off or fade and held up well throughout the day. Not bad at all.

Great size to pack in my bag. Blend in a little color to my cheeks and I’m ready for impromptu after work get together.Nice stick- that blends easily. I’m able to get a really light sunkissed look and a more dramatic evening tone from the same stick.Non odorous, I don’t even feel it on and it lasts. Nice product!
