NYC Plaza Pink Blushable Creme Stick Review, Swatch, & Photos

Rating: 10/10

Sold: Drugstores

Price: $3.99

Description: A peachy pink cream blush with a slight silver iridescence

Review:

Pros
  • So cheap!
  • Pigmentation is amazing! It’s very easy to put too much on!
  • .28 oz of product
  • Adds a great flush to the cheeks
  • Great base for a powder blush, which will last all day when applied
  • A brush isn’t required (although I do prefer), fingers blend out the product just as easily
  • Pretty decent color variety – although I definitely fell in love with this one at first sight!
  • Has just the right consistency – not sticky and not too oily
  • Can also be used as a lipstick
 
Cons
  • They seem to be a hot item, which makes a little hard to find
