This does seem to feel slightly greasy to me when it's first applied, but it dries rather quickly & that feeling goes away, so it doesn't bother me much. I find it works equally well over or under my face powder. Goes on easily & quickly with no streaks. It does have a pearlized sheen to it (rather than shimmery IMO), but I usually prefer it more matte, so I apply it over my foundation then dust a little powder over it. I have very pale skin with warm undertones, & I find this gives me a natural, pretty, peachy glow to my cheeks. I don't really mind the touchpad method of application. I think when these first came out, I had read that the sponge was supposed to have anti-bacterial stuff in it. Even if it doesn't though, I'm sure that touching my freshly-washed fingers in it has less germs than a makeup brush that hasn't been washed in days. I bought this on eBay for only about $6, & I'd have to say I'm pretty impressed with it overall & would probably repurchase.

I just love this blush! To me, it doesn't feel greasy so much as just wet...which would make sense. =) I have medium skin and a bit of left-over tan, and I only have to build 2 layers to really see it. And this is even after I brush on a lil Caboodles Tahiti first.

I just love, love, love it - I even ordered the Berry color from drugstore.com, and can't wait to get that one!

Such a beautiful color, but barely detectable, even on my fair skin. It does impart a nice, subtle dewy shimmer, though, so it may make a nice highlighter. Will not repurchase this shade.

I really like these blushes on the whole but this shade was somewhat of a letdown. Peach and Peach/Pink blushes usually look great on my warm toned LLL skin and I was hoping this shade would become another mainstay in my collection. It is a lovely soft peachy/pink colour that looks totally natural. The problem? The shade is not very pigmented. I had to put on at least three layers before I saw anything. After layering though, it looked great! I really wish it were more pigmented, but I probably will get it again.

I like the Nearly Naked Touch Pad foundation so I thought why not give the blush a try? The Touch Pad blush share the exact same theory of the foundation, only that this is a blush and has no SPF in it. It comes in 4 natural colors and once again, no testers available to try these out. I tried Peach Au Natural & Berry Nude. I am an Asian with yellow skin undertone, the Peach Au Natural look so natural on me, as a matter of fact it looked so natural that I might as well not wear it coz you cannot see it at all. I try Berry Nude (a bright pink) and this one works better with my skin color coz it is darker than the rest of the color. I think Peach Au Ntural will look good for those with pale skin. I am not sure if I like this the same as I like the Nearly Naked Touch Pad foundation, its color is just too sheer to be noticed.

I got this yesterday since I already have this in Revealing Raisin and I decided to try something on the peachy side of the color spectrum [as most my blushes are more rosy].

I like this color, looks very natural as if I'm not wearing anything at all...just naturally "healthy" looking.

It's easy to apply and it blends so well, you don't see where it begins or ends on your face. Big plus [as powders are a lot trickier]

This is really such a pretty color but it does not show up on my cheeks...it looks good swiped on the back of my hand but does nothing on my face, except blend in ...what a disappointment.

mmn. Finally a "cream' blush I can use! This is a gorgeous pink/peach blush, not quite as peach as the foil. It works really well on my nc20/stila b skin. I dab on two layers for enough intensity and then dust sheer pressed powder over it. It really makes my cheeks look like the glow from within! (only very slight shimmer shows through). If you like your blush sheer like me, try these out!

This is a very interesting product! I love blushes, but mainly use powder, except for this one Bliss cream blush(a very pale pink). This was a rather pricey, 10 bucks for a drugstore brand, but I didn't know how much it was, untill I got home..... but I love it so, no big deal!This is one of those products you use daily once u buy it and wonder how you have ever done without it before...
This is a sheer, pearly liquid, that feels like a highliter, but when I don't rub it in too hard, it really shows (it only gets too sheer when i rub it in too hard). I will def repurchase, because thisdoesnt look like a long lasting product ( container is small) yet I am hardly the person who has finished a makeup item, in like ever...

This is a lovely color, but I think its a very very sheer. Its a shimmery light toned true peach. Unfortunately, it doesnt show up on me (Olive MMM, dark hair/eyes, Stila D/40 Watts, MAC C35). It would be really lovely on fairer ladies though. I prefer my LOreal Charmed Peach for a light peach blush.

EDITThis had zip staying power on my oily skin. Product was too liquidy, and I cant imagine how it would've stayed put on anybody. Blaah

This very user-friendly liquid blush in a touchpad container gives me the same effect as Nars Orgasm (which I love, but seems to make me break out in tiny rash-like bumps :( ) It's pretty expensive for a drugstore brand (I paid 10.00 for mine at Walgreens), but it's must easier to blend than other creams and liquids I've used and it gives a glowy/creamy effect. Now I'm itching to add the berry and nude shades to my already bulging makeup bag!

Ooh, I'm so glad I finally found this! It took a few days to get the hang of it, but I'm amazed at the results! The liquid is whisper light, leaving only a veil of baby peach color. My cheeks look as if they flush naturally this way (hence the name, I suppose), like I'm not wearing any makeup at all. I love these new lightweight liquid blush formulas!
