Recently I picked up a few shades of the NYX Stick Blush ($6) and wanted to quickly share some swatches with you. These cream to powder blushers are available in 8 different shades. For the price you get tons of product!
I picked up 4 shades to try:
Pink Poppy – medium pink
Orchid – peachy pink with golden shimmer
Tea Rose – rose/ mauve pink
Tulip – bright bubble gum pink
I like the convenience of these. They come in a wind up tube that you can just dab onto your cheeks and then blend out easily with your fingers or a bush.
These stick blushes are nicely pigmented but more sheer than the NYX Cream Blush are. They’re also a little firmer and less “wet” than the compact version but still plenty creamy.
Available online at NYX Cosmetics and Ulta. At the moment, all NYX products are 40% at Ulta! These are only $3.59 each, whoa!
Orchid looks like a Nars dupe. I was so tempted to haul from Ulta but I must resist.
Tulip and Tea Rose look so beautiful! Have you worn these yet? Do you know if they have decent lasting power?

Hi Jade. I have fairly oil skin so these stay put for about 4 hours before they start to fade and breakdown. I can get a little longer if I put a matching powder blush on top to mattify it a bit. Hope that helps.
