NYX Stick Blush Hibiscus Review

Ever since, I saw a review on the new NYX Stick Blush by Ida, I badly wanted to try out one for two reasons:

Reason 1 – I haven’t tried stick blushes till date O:) O:) O:) (I have an evil friend who suggested me to try Lakme stick blush). :smug: :smug:

Reason 2 – NYX product :pompom: :pompom:

Product Description:

Add a touch of color with our creamy and extremely pigmented Stick Blush! Available in eight rich shades! Apply and receive the perfect glow every day!

Shades Available:

8.

Shades Available

You can read the review of the shade “Tulip” here.

I got the shade “Hibiscus.”  It looks a little brownish in the stick but actually it’s a warm peachy shade* (which reminds me a lot of the shade “Natural” in NYX cream blush range). I think this shade Hibiscus will look flattering on most skin tones, especially light to medium. There are no shimmer/glitter particles in this particular shade.

*I love to wear peach blushes mostly. Also, if you are planning to start wearing blushes and you are confused which shade to start with, always opt for a peach shade.

Price:

$ 6 (costed me around INR 500 with shipping from an international website).

Ingredients:

White Mineral Oil, 2-Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Polybutene, Squalane, Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2, Vitamin E, Beeswax, Ozokerite, Candelilla Wax, Carnauba Wax, Paraffin Wax/ Microcrystalline Wax, Phenoxyethanol/ Methylparaben/ N-Butylparaben/ Ethylparaben/ Propylparaben/ Isobutylparaben, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate.

Ingredients

Packaging:

Hibiscus

The stick blush comes in a lightweight, plastic casing which you can twist up to use the blush, just like a lipstick, secured with a cap. Being a stick blush, the application/dotting the blush is very convenient. The colour of the outer casing corresponds to the blush inside them.

What I Like about NYX Stick Blush Hibiscus:

  • The formula is quite soft, creamy which just melts/glides easily on the skin.
  • Even though it seems like a cream blush, the finish is slight dewy, but not full on shiny like a cream blush.
  • It looks like a cheek stain, very natural with a soft, velvety finish.
  • This particular shade has no shimmer/glitter, so can be worn easily during the day.
  • It’s a very wearable, natural looking shade.
  • I think it will suit most skin types as it doesn’t get too shiny/greasy like a normal cream blush.
  • The product has good color payoff and can be built upon easily for rather intense colour.
  • Pretty decent staying power, it did not fade even after 5-6 hours of wear.
  • Neat, sturdy, lightweight packaging.
  • Has no cheap/strong/bothering fragrance/smell.
  • Available in 8 shades (shimmery and non-shimmery both).
  • Hypoallergenic (as claimed).
  • NYX products are not tested on animals.
  • Fairly priced at 6 dollars.

What I Do Not Like about NYX Stick Blush Hibiscus:

  • Non-availability in India :headbang:
  • Even if you can order it online, you just have to make a “guestimate” of the shade. It’s really difficult to make out how the shade looks like in real life by just looking at a tiny shade card picture.

Overall, I like these new stick blushes by NYX and I would like to try other shades too. It’s my first stick blush and I like how convenient it is to apply the blush, by just dotting it directly on the cheeks without involving a brush or applicator 🙂
