Anastasia Beverly Hills Blush Stick Review: For Radiant Cheeks

ABH cream blush stick is one of my favorites.

In addition to her award-winning repertoire of brow products, ABH is also home to several other winning products. From eyeshadows to foundation, complexion enhancers and mascara, you’re sure to find some products that work for you. One of my favorites is newer to the brand: Anastasia Beverly Hills Blush Stick. This creamy formula applies like a dream, wears well, and comes in five stunning shades. I was honestly surprised how much I love this formula. Let’s dive into Anastasia Beverly Hills Blush Stick Review.

Promises vs. Performance: No smudging, no streaking, no smearing for ABH Blush Stick

If you’re looking for a natural, radiant cheek color, ABH Blush Stick promises just that. This cream blush melts into skin for a seamless finish with no streaking, smudging, or disrupting the makeup underneath. It blurs, giving cheeks a soft focus look that lasts all day long without settling into pores and lines. Claiming an easy glide on application with great blendability, Stick Blush can give anything from a sheer wash of color to a vivid pop.

My Review Thoughts: Anastasia Beverly Hills Blush Stick

ABH Stick Blush is a creamy, emollient formula with stunning colors. Specifically, the shade Latte is my favorite; I don’t have anything like it in a cream formula in my collection. I love how easy this blush stick is to use. When applying, I can swipe it directly onto my cheeks without disrupting the makeup below and easily blend it out with my fingers or a brush. It layers well to create a more intense pop if desired. The formula is free of smudging, streaking, or settling and wears beautifully throughout the day. From application to removal, my cheeks have a healthy, natural radiance to them.

I will say, during review I found that the included brush in the stick is not the easiest to work with inside Anastasia Beverly Hills Blush Stick. It is super dense and if you buff the product in, even with the lightest pressure, it will lift the product underneath. The best way to apply is patting it in with your fingers and then taking a sponge to soften and diffuse the edges. Another great fool-proof method is work the blush into a smaller dense blush brush and use tapping motions to work the blush onto the cheeks.

Let’s Review How It Compares: Anastasia Beverly Hills Blush Stick is a solid cream formula.

Anastasia Beverly Hills blush stick is a winning cream formula in my book. It applies and blends easily with fingers or a brush, without disrupting to makeup underneath. The formula can be layered to give anywhere from a sheer wash of color to a more intense pop. It wears beautifully with no patchiness, no settling, and no fading. I do think the shade range could be better, but the current 7 shades they do have are stunning.

What is my favorite cream blush, you might ask? ROSE INC Blush Divine is easily one of the best formulas I have ever tried and is one of my holy grails. The creamy formula easily blends into cheeks with fingers or a brush, providing a the most healthy, radiant flush of color. It never accentuates any imperfections, from dryness to texture and never settles into lines or pores. Blush Divine applies beautifully over any base, whether cream or powder, without disrupting the makeup underneath.
