Love! Stunning peachy creme blush. I adore the stick form and packaging that allows me to see the color.


I'm NC 20/25 warm yellow skin, blonde hair & blue eyes. This blush is perfect for my coloring- looks like it was made for me. I do think it would look nice on most skin tones. Highly buildable.


I have oily skin & this is the only thing that makes blush stay on me all day. I apply this as a base for any powder blush.


I prefer this to other cream blushes bc the NYC formula is dry so it works well on oily skin.


Highly recommend! If you can find it -try it!

Found at the Dollar Store in a bin and wow did I not expect such quality! It's a peachy mauve color and is pigmented. It shows up okay on my skin but the color isn't the most flattering color on me. It's nice and blendable, it's matte too. NYC's powder blush was horrible but this made up for it! I don't wear blush very often, sometimes though so this will last a very long time for me. It's covenient for traveling, a plus. I'd try the other colors but the line is discountiued. I'd repurchase if I saw again even though it is discountiued. ):

Excellent cream blush! I'd been looking for one & accidently found this @ the Dollar Store - very impressed. It's super easy to apply & you don't have to rub very hard to distribute the color - I'm thrilled! I want to try the other colors!

I love this! The color is a pretty peachy nude that looks great with my yellow-toned skin. It looks like there's some shimmer when you look at product, but it doesn't show up on my skin at all (which is a plus for me). It's very easy to blend out and it gives me a very natural flush of color when it is blended. I put this on before my pressed power and it stays on just fine. It's so cheap and convenient and it comes with quite a bit of product too. I completely recommend this if you're looking for to try an affordable creme blush :]!

I am about NC45 for reference--a medium/deep tan.


This is my first cream blush and I have to say I LOVE IT! At first I thought this peachy shade wouldn't really show up on my skin, but with a slightly more than average application, I'm left with a very subtle, very natural, peachy pink glow. I'd imagine that if I could blush naturally, this is what it would look like! The stick packaging is convenient--that's all that matters to me. I like this product for my lazy days and it has a pretty decent lasting power on me. I have slightly drier skin in the winter so that could be why it lasts well. Not sure how this would go over on those with oilier skin, but I will try it when the weather gets warmer!


Essentially this is a great product. I would definitely pick up a few more and not feel guilty about trying them because of their low price!

My HG cream blush in peach. Its a matte one, with a pink undertone. Gives my NW25 skin the perfect natural dewy look for $3. Super blendable & buildable. Found a great blog showing this to be the DUPE for STILA convertible color in PEONY ($25); which I had been eyeing foreverrr. Is it an exact? Guess I'll never know, because this is mOre than good enough :) See for yourself:

I really dislike bringing down 100% would repurchase ratings. Why, I don't know. I think I just don't like being a dissenting voice. When I saw the reviews for this I went to try mine again to make sure I wasn't missing something. Nope, on my NC30 skin this color looks like a ruddy reddish brown. Not flattering. The consistency is decent, but it does not give me a "glow" as it does other people. I agree that is it cheap and convenient, but the color just does me no favors.

I picked up this shade at CVS. I was debating whether to buy this or Mauvin' Uptown. I don't have enough peachy cream blushes, and Stila Peony (which I own) looks a little like MU. I am so glad I did. I thought this would look too pale against my tanned, NC42/NARS Syracuse, complexion. I was wrong. It looks great! It gives me a healthy flush of color, and perks my face right up. If you are lighter skinned, you could dab on a little and blend well to create a lighter flush of color. It's only 3.99, and it's often on sale. This is one of the better drugstore bargains.

Great for creating a youthful, dewey (but not shiny) look. Awesome color-love the pinky/peachy/tawny color. Easy to apply and very buildable. Very cheap and will DEFINITELY purchase again.

Such a pretty color, and such a great value for your money! You get a ton in the tube, and it does not dry out. Great for an everyday blush. You can use your fingers to blend, or a stippling brush. Love it!

This is a great cream blush, and you get a lot of product for the price! It's a nice corally pink shade that complements my skin tone very well. Would repurchase

I'm so expressed with the quality of these blushes. I bought it in S.St.Seashell, Big Apple and Plaza Pink and I love them all. S.St.Seashell and Big Apple looks similar on my skin tone, sometimes I like mixing Big Apple and Plaza Pink. With 2-3 swatches, it stays on my oily skin all day without looking greasy. It's so easy to apply, texture is easy to blend and has great pigmentation. For only $3, I'm gonna try other colors.

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! Creamy and glides on and blends effortlessly. Perfect everyday wear color on my east indian tan skin. Can't wait to pick up more colors. A TOTAL STEAL FOR THE PRICE AND AMOUNT OF PRODUCT.

color can be played up or understated depending upon how much it is blending and how much it is not. gives my face a nice glowly look.

I absolutely adore this creme stick blush! I picked it up on a whim at my local drugstore over the weekend, and instantly fell in love! I was immediately attracted to the wide range of colors, it's creamy, velvety texture, and the super portable and cute tube packaging. I'm always a little hesitant to try a new blush, since I've been so faithful to Maybelline's dream mousse blush for many years, but this one is a solid contender. Also, I was unsure if this shade would compliment my skin tone. And luckily, it does!

Pros: great color, goes on smoothly, easy to apply, very portable, super thick tube ensures that it will last a very loong time, very inexpenive
Cons: very easy to apply too much and look 'clownish', so be sure to dab just a little bit at a time

Product - Neutral toned creme-to-powder blush stick that wears more like a deep salmon red-orange on my AAB/NC25 skin. It's not light enough or bright enough to call it a true "coral" - it's more of a dirty, muddy coral. This shade has been touted by some as a contouring shade, but on me it leans too red-coral for that purpose (i.e., it's too colorful and not nude-brown enough for shading)... which is fine by me. Nice creamy texture and easy to work with. No residual greasy feeling. Good pigmentation.


Comparisons - South St. Seashell has the same depth of color as Berry New Yorker but leans more coral, less mauve.


Packaging - Twist-up stick with plastic body in a color representative of the product and clear cap.


Overall - This shade is much nicer on my skin than I expected; the color in the tube looks so blah! Very nice product, and an excellent value at about $3.

UPDATE: you most definately MUST have exfoliated skin before even thinking about wearing this blush formula. i made the mistake of going too long without properly exfoliating my skin and it clung to dry patches on my cheeks. it looked blotchy and horrible. this formula, altho a DUPE for stila peony, is a drier formula than stila. i prefer the stila over this but after i use up my 2 stila peony blushes ill probably go for this because the price is unbeatable. --------------------------------.I picked this shade and Plaza Pink up at Rite Aid and am so glad I did. Ive been on a creamy blush kick for awhile and have tried all sorts & this formula and color happens to be my favorite out of all so far. (I tried MAC lilicent blush creme, maybelline mousse in cloud wine & rose petal, stila peony convertible color among others). I usually try to stay away from NYC cosmetics because I hear they test on animals but I am having the worst time finding a cream blush in a not so shimmery peachy corally shade so this was a last choosing. The color of South St Seashell is very very similar to Stila Peony convertible color & Mac lilicent blush creme. A sort of neutral slightly toasted shade of pink. Beautiful. Easy to blend on top of my foundation. I actually tried mixing Plaza pink on top of this and it was a gorgeous look as well. It added a gold shimmer. I also swiped TBS golden pink powder blush on top then dusted BB shimmerbrick in beige & the whole cheek look lasts all day long. $3.99 for a .28 oz blush stick.

After hearing the reviews for these babies, I had to try at least one! For the price, you can't beat it! I like the consistency of this product, it's easy to apply and blend out. It's way better than any cheek stains or creme products I have ever used. The staying power lasts hours on my cheeks especially when I apply a powder blush over this with a highlight as well. So compact that it fits in any bag or makeup bag. The item is spill proof in it's lipstick style packaging and comes with a ton of product inside, it will definitely last me some time! I was able to find this at RiteAid for $3.99 but I've only tried this one shade, I plan on trying out more though because they're really cheap :)

Pretty color. It's like a warm, rosey peach color that looks natural on my warm, light/med. skin tone. It's a big stick and a little goes a long way. I just put a stripe on each cheek and blend. Easy application and love that it's so cheap. I actually like using this more than I do my stila CC.

I love this blush so much. Its very pigmented and has the perfect consistency. The color looks beautiful on my skin. The only complaint I would have is the staying power...I usually have to reapply it but maybe its because I might be touching my face and not noticing. So yes I would buy again....its an amazing product for the price and I want to try out some other shades.
