Review - NYC Blushable Creme Stick in Plaza Pink

I've heard so much rave about this product and i just had to go check it out. You can find it at Ulta. Its price is about $3-$4. Very affordable for the quality and the quantity.

There are six shades available:

Plaza Pink
(644)

Big Apple Blush
(645)

Urban Spice
(646)

South Street Seashell
(647)

Mauvin' Uptown
(648)

Berry New Yorker
(649)

There colors seem to range from peachy, to pink, to bronzes and browns. They're a great combinations of cheek colors and contour colors.

It's a beautiful coral pink that has a slight sheen to it. It's not heavy glitters or shimmer, but it gives your cheeks a gorgeous peachy glow. Its so perfect for the summer. It has a great color pay-off. You can definitely build it up to the intensity you prefer. It applies very creamy, but once you blend it into the skin it becomes a soft powdery formula. It reminds me a lot of the Maybelline mousse blushes. The NYC creme sticks though blend a lot smoother to me though. I really do recommend checking these out at Ulta.

PROS:
- Great color pay off
- Soft and creamy
- Buildable
- Not greasy or sticky at all
- Convenient twist up stick
- Gorgeous color selection

CONS:
- The vibrant color doesn't really last all day

I'm really excited about these. I'm going to consider getting other shades, probably the darker ones for contouring, since i contour with bronzer, i would like to give these a try. They're very affordable, very handy to carry with you, and the quality is worth it for the price. I highly recommend you check these out. They also have other two LE shades available called Pink Flash and Wild Berry.
