NYX Stick Blush

Hello again!

An Ulta store recently opened up near my house so needless to say I have been making daily trips there! I have never tried NYX products before so I have slowly been picking up products to try.

I recently picked up their stick blush. I have been looking for a nice cream blush and I thought the stick feature would be fairly convenient. I was relatively inexpensive, around 4 to 5 dollars I think. I picked up the shade 07 "Water Lily". It is a dark plumy rose color.



Swatched:



I love the pigmentation of this product and I really like the color. However, it is very difficult to blend. It is almost impossible to blend with your fingers so I have been using an ELF blush brush pictured below. I streak the product on my cheeks and the blend with the brush. It gives a really nice natural finish and I find myself using this blush almost daily. For the price I think the quality is great and it does last all day. 

As far as the brush goes, I think it is too hard for powder blush, I think the blush would go on too heavy. However, it works perfectly for this blush! I would definitely recommend this product!
