I own 4 out of the 6 shades by this line & this has to be my favorite! Its a pretty coral -pink that just adds soo much life to my face. I'm not a heavy mu wearer & prefer natural bare face looks. This blush allows just that, a hint of glow as if I really had butterflies in my stomach after running into my crush!
There's a dust of silver shimmer that translates to a beautiful sheen. The texture is like silk, it blends like butter literally. Color is buildable, although 2 swipes per cheek for me is ideal. This twist up tube conveniently fits most mu bags/clutches. I like the clear plastic lid that allows u to see the true color from the top. Rite Aid alternates wks with N.Y.C 40% off sales!

I wish this wasn't going to be DC'd! The color is gorgeous on my skin! I have fair skin that is borderline medium with yellow undertones and this is so great. I love the packaging too! Its so easy to blend and it blends beautifully into my skin. LOVE LOVE LOVE!

I just didn't like this for my pale skin tone but for darker people this would work great .For the 4 dollars this certainly something that is worth a try.
To me it went on feeling kinda greasy.It is a bright pink that makes me look red faced and that is not a good look.The sparkles in the formula were a turn off as well.I also found that when it wears off all that is left is the sparkles

I have a confession to make - I have never been able to use blush. I can't apply powder blush without looking like Bozo the Clown, and I'd always assumed that because I have oily skin, cream blushes were out. NYC's Blushable Creme Stick in Plaza Pink changed my life!
I just dab a bit onto the apple of each of my cheeks, blend well, and suddenly I look dewy and rosy. It's that simple. If that sounds, well, like common sense to regular users of blush, believe me when I say it was a revelation to me.
The peachy-pink color is perfect for my fair skin/red hair coloring. Not too pink, not too pink. Like a few other reviewers, I was dismayed at first by the glittery/sparkly look, but evidently it fades quickly, because I've never noticed it glittering or sparkling in the sun.
Bottom line - try it!

I bought this because it's alleged to be a dupe for Penny Lane. Here's how I feel about the product overall: it's too frosty on me, and looks like pale pink icing - just not an attractive or subtle color on my NC27 face. I have combo skin and generally don't do well with cream blushes, though, so this could work well for someone with drier skin.
As for it being a dupe for Penny Lane: not quite. Similar, perhaps. But Penny Lane is more of a neutral balance between peach and ballet pink, has a very faint and subtle sheen that looks more glowy than shimmering, and melts into the skin to look natural and lit from within.

Gorgeous peachy pink color, easy to blend & quick to apply! This creme blush has some shimmer, but nothing too noticeable. Great for everyday wear!

This is honestly my favorite blush of all time, quick to apply, easy to blend and can be anywhere from sheer to dark without getting cakey. Actually it looks quite natural and alot of people think I'm blushing when I'm wearing it <3

Really pretty color, but a bit too shimmery in my opinion. I like how you need is a tiny bit to brighten and bring a glow to your complexion. Blending is easy and can be easily achieved with your fingers. If only it's matte, it would be perfect.

Brilliant and super pretty product! I love the colour, a soft coral, and blends like a dream. I love it that it is in a stick form, so unique yet easy to use!
Price is amazing too for this quality. The only drawback is that I wish it had a peachy/orangey shade. I also wish it would last longer because I did notice it fading after a few hours. It does not fade completely or a lot so it is still acceptable.

This is just great! I absolutely love the just-pinched tone it gives my, and it blends beautifully. I put it on right after my foundation, so it has a creamier base to work with, and it goes on great. It lasts all day and compliments my skin tone well. I love the fact that the stick itself is rather wide, so it allows for very easy application. I really liked this overall.

At last, something that looks gorgeous AND stays on! Depending on the season/sun exposure, my skin is either just a touch beyond pale or verging on light tan, but always in the realm of fair. Finding a blush that actually adds color but isn't downright garish is hard enough, never mind one that's up to battling Texas heat and humidity. Having had good luck w/ their eyeliners, I bought this on a whim w/ a coupon at HEB. It took a while to pick a color, but I finally decided to ere on the side of caution and take the lightest shade possible. To my happy surprise, this stuff glides on wonderfully and is beyond blendable to a subtle glow. In the same vein, it's extremely buildable, so I should be able to use the same shade even as I pick up a little tan over the summer. It's a good bit of product for just ~$4/5, and while it doesn't have any shimmer of which to speak still seems to "glow" (in a gorgeously healthy way) unlike powders or other creams or mousses. Highly recommend, just be sure to take the time necessary to pick the right shade (which is a given imo, anyway) as a couple of shades seem at first to be very close.

I like some of the shades from the blushable creme sticks, but this one didn't do much for me. The shade is a nude peach (very natural looking), but the finish is what I didn't like. It's slightly frosty and too shimmery on my skin which accentuates my pores and makes them look much bigger. It is very creamy and blends easily with fingers and doesn't leave my skin feeling greasy either. Good to use if your in a hurry or to carry around in your purse for emergencies.

A very flattering and easy to blend pink shade that works well on my fair olive-toned skin; it tends just a little towards coral, but not so much that it picks up the yellow in my skin. The blush itself isn't sticky or thick, and I usually just swipe it on and blend with my fingers. Not much shimmer I can see in this one, but it has to downright glitter before I notice, usually.

Maybelline's Smooth Mousse blush in Peach Satin has been my go to cheek color for so long now, but lately I was getting tired of all the shimmers that was in it because they would always cling onto my dry skin flakies. I'm so happy to find that NYC's Plaza Pink is exactly the same color but without the glitter!! I love it! It's such a nice natural peachy pink color that gives a subtle flush on the apples of your cheeks. I'm somewhat fair, so I wear this blush very sheer as the product is really pigmented, so the color is definitely buildable if you want a stronger color on your cheeks. I also love the consistency; it's creamy when you apply it, but dries into a powder-like finish, and because it is a cream blush, it doesn't cake up. For the quality, you also can't beat the price for a little less than five bucks! The packaging is also super convenient as it comes in a lipstick-like tube. I just dab my fingers onto the blush and pat onto my cheeks. Pair it with a nice bronzer, and you've got yourself a natural, healthy glow. Love it!

I own two creme blush sticks from NYC (the other being Big Apple) and I love this one more! They are such a steal for the quality. The pigmentation is great (you can apply a little and blend for sheer coverage, but it is buildable) and it does not feel sticky on my cheeks! I usually apply by just swiping at an angle on my cheeks and blend out with my ecotools blush brush and it gives such a great natural flush. I also use this as a base for powder blushes if I want more corally-pink to show up. Would def repurchase if I lose/run out.

Love this blush! It's my favorite for sure.
I have pale skin and this shade works really well for me, though next time I think I might try a slightly darker shade just for fun.
I got this a long time ago after reading good reviews. And seeing that it only costs a couple of bucks I had to try it.
I love cream blushes because I really don't like putting too much powder of any kind of my face due to somewhat large pores.
I apply this product on my cheeks either with my fingers or with my foundation brush. It blends very nicely and looks completely natural on my skin. I don't detect any glitter or sparkles at all but it's not 100% matte either because it is a cream blush that doesn't dry matte. It basically makes my skin glow and looks very natural.
Love it. Will repurchase without a doubt even though one stick will probably last me a year, and I use this product almost every single day.

I understand the appeal of this, now that I've tried it, but ultimately I was dissapointed. Upsides: flattering, peachy color. Blends easily and naturally with skin (you do not even need a brush, I used my fingers). Feels natural on the skin, not greasy or gross in any way. Downsides: has a very slight almost frosty look to it, which I don't like. Not quite a shimmer, and definitely not matte. Just not my personal style. I guess that's the only real downside. I also feel like the color, while nice, didn't show up that much on my skin (NC30). I feel like this is (yet another) blush color that would look better on very pale skin. I seem to run into this a lot! Hm.

I already wrote a review for the formulation under "big apple blush" but let me reiterate
really cheap, really pigmented, good staying power for a cream blush, really easy to use in stick form, sheer and glowy at the same time.
This colour is more coral/peachy than big apple blush and more warm. Instead of a silver sheen this is more gold. It would look fantastic with a tan in the summer but still looks good on my pale skin now.
