This gel blush it not at all what I thought it was going to be. By the color looking so dark, I thought there was going to be more color to it. It is a very sheer gel. It barely shows up on my skins, almost if nothing is there at all. I tried it on my lips and, I will be using it as a lip tint. It should have been called Clinique Almost Gel Blush.

I have used this on and off for twenty five years now, and I love it! It lasts forever, you can use it on lips, cheeks, even eyelids and it is completely natural looking, You have to blend it quickly, though!

Great in warm glow. Also works great as a lip color applied with a lip brush with gloss on top!

I own this in Warm Glow. It's a great, natural looking blush! I like to look fresh faced and never wear a lot of makeup. Well, this does the trick! Healthy glow that lasts all day long. And even though it's a small tube, you only need very little of it. A dot on each cheak, smear and go!
Downside: the colour has such great staying power that it makes my fingertips red after applying. And it's a b*tch to take off from them lol. That's what kept me from giving it a 5.

I love this site- I have found so many products that I would NEVER have tried in a million years without reading these reviews.

This is just one I recently went for and I am SO glad I did. I have found a blush that I will use -probably every day. I agree with the others here that are giving it the good lippies, I dont want to say the same things that have been said but they are all true and about what I want to say.

I have never been able to use anything but powder blush- until now. I got the color Warm Glow- I have never seen anything like this product before. Its light but also has good color that stays. It looks like my natural blush but better and even outside my skin looks good and natural. I am really picky about smells and the feel of makeup and I cant feel anything on my skin with this- and no smell.

Even if you can or cant wear a blush like this( or you THINK you cant) you gotta try this if you are on the fence about it. Its not going to show all the pores and stuff too - which I couldnt believe... anyway I will get off my Sephora Soap BOX now and shut up about this.

I just want to tell everyone.
Oh one more thing, I got the Laura M tinted Moist too, put that on first
then the warm glow - gorgeous! I think it will look even better when I get better at the application. Yes... it might be a little tricky- but its not that difficult. Its no different then the first time I tried say- putting on eyeliner when young and never had done it before. Its well worth getting used to.
Ok shutting up now.

Great blush, very natural looking. I first tried it with a Clinique promotion and was surprised at how small the tube was when I later bought some. But you use very little to get a nice glow, so the small tube was cost effective, and very portable as well. It gives you a fresh, healthy outdoorsy look.

I love gel blush and this is a great one. I have it in pink shell. I am an NW20 and it looks so natural, like my skin when it is flushed. It is identical to my beloved long departed L'oreal Translucide texturewise and it looks far superior on me to any powder. Most powder blushes just lay on top of my skin and accentuate my pores and I have pretty great skin to begin with. This is a really great product that I highly reccomend if you are looking for a natural look.

I've been using this for about 3 weeks now and am really liking this. I'm not sure about the complaints that this product has too short of a playtime, as I've never had any trouble blending this blush into my skin (and I use this directly over TM & before applying powder). I find that this gives me a nice glow without looking made-up. I use this in Honeyed Red and one little dot on each cheek is all I need to look healthy & pretty. I think a little goes a long way so this tube should last me a pretty long time. I will definitely repurchase this when I run out.

I've tried dozens and dozens of blushes, and this is definitely my all-time favorite! I have it in Honeyed Red, and it gives me a gorgeous natural-looking flush, like I've been out in the cold. While most of my other makeup is gone or melted by the end of the day, this stays put and doesn't fade. The tube's pretty tiny, but it lasts for a long time. My only complaint is that the gel stains my cheeks before I have time to really blend it. To give me more time to blend, thin out the color even more, and make it last longer, I put a a dot on my palm and mix it with a little moisturizer. Works like a charm! =]

Great for a natural pop of colour that really lifts your face, I love this product in Warm Glow (I'm a PPP with blonde highlights and slate blue eyes). For me it is the best of the cheek stain/gels out there. The tube lasts a long time, once applied it lasts all day, and the packaging is neat and hygenic. Someone at work once said to me, "You always have such a healthy glow, you must drink tons of water and eat really healthily" - but I knew it was really the Clinique gel blush...

I bought this in Warm Glow. I like the color, it gives my cheeks a nice rosy glow. I don't use this everyday so even though the tube is kind of small it has lasted a long time.

HG status, definitely. I have this in honey red and I absolutely adore it. Easy to blend, totally natural color, and it lasts. What more could I ask for???

What I love about this little gel blush in a tube (not in any order of preference): 1. Ease of application. 2. A little goes a long way. 3. Sanitation of packaging. 4. Portability. 5. Natural glow. 6. The color --I use Black Honey, which goes with any of my warm or cool lip colors. /// This one will be a staple in my little makeup bag.

I have used this for several years and continue using it because it's such an excellent product. I used Orgins "Pinch my Cheeks" for a long time and loved the color it gave me, but the Origins product kept breaking my face out. Clinique's "Honeyed Red" is the same exact color but a gel formulation that does not make me break out. It is very natural looking, and just a great product overall. It has great staying power and gives me that natural flushed look.

MY HG BLUSH! I have oily skin (hey, I won't wrinkle as fast-- gotta look at the bright side) and this gel blush still stays put, better than any high or low-end blush I've ever tried. I use the color warm glow, and it gives me a natural flush of transparent color, that looks natural. It can be tricky to apply, because once it gets on skin it wants to stick and stay-put, so as long as you're confident about where your blush will sit in relation to your cheekbones (use a tiny dab on your fingertip, and quickly and precisely rub it up and into your skin exactly where you want it)-- you will love the staying power and look of this blush. I got mine on eBay for a cheaper price, and I love it so much, I'll buy it from the actual counter this time. ;)

I have been using this blush in Black Honey for about 5 years and I will never go back to anything else, let alone powder blush. The look is so sheer and natural, and once you get the hang of it the blush is very easy to apply. It's normal priced for a blush, but I definitely get my money's worth as you can squeeze every last drop out of the tube! The great part about it is that it lasts all day, the only time I ever reapply is if I'm going out and need a little more color. I definitely definitely reccomend!!

Fabulous product. It will stay on all day long much like a stain. I have been using this for 8 years & absolutely love it. The trick to putting this on is, purse your lips so your checkbones stand out, now apply to the center of your cheekbone in a circular motion until it's blended in well & voila! Since it dries quickly, you can always use a touch of water to keep blending it if need be. I highly recommend this product. I use Warm Glow since it imparts a natural flushed look - super sexy!

After reading the reviews here, I was finally convinced to buy the gel blush. I really like it. It looks sexy (yet natural) when applied to both the cheeks and the lips. For extra effect, I use a little bit of Clinique's Color Surge Impossibly Glossy in Braisin over my stained lips. This gel blush gives a natural glow that powder blush cannot provide.

It might seem expensive for a small tube, but you only need a tiny amount. Thus, you get your money's worth. I paid about thirteen U.S. dollars.

I have the gel blush in Black Honey. It works well with my dry, fair skin with golden undertones.

Although my Bobbi Brown's "Powder Pink Pot Rouge" gives me the same amazingly natural and long lasting results as my Clinique's "Petal Cream Touch Blush", and even though Powder Pink colour suits me better, the Touch Blush wins the battle because I have yet to find a non-powder blush that has such a soft texture and blends so easily. Plus the packaging is so cute and useful... a must-have!!
