These taste very bitter so I wouldn't use them on my lips, but they're nice as a cheek stain. "Sheer with shimmer" doesn't show any pigment on my brown skin, but I can use it as a body glitter along my collarbone and it looks subtle and sparkly. Coral is my favourite... it's a pale shimmery pink that looks a little like their cheek tint Cutie Pie. Pink is a little too bright for me.

I only use powder, no foundation, and it did look a little blotchy on me at first but when I dust powder over the cheek tint it gives me a nice glow that looks like it's coming from within. It's a little greasy but the powder takes care of that problem. Lasts all day, too!

They are very cute.



Like mentioned before, they come in three colours: pink, coral and gold glitter. (I RAOK'ed the gold one to smiles4c).



The shades go on water-colour sheer. You see the colour but it doesnt look obvious.



I tried the coral one to satisfy my lemming for coral cheeks. It goes on VERY sheer. I applied it to well-moisturized skin, no foundation and it enhanced my skin with a warm glow that I expected from a gel blush (great for summer when I dont like to wear foundation).



Now MAC has an identical item for their summer (2006) line. I'm sticking with Quo stick blush for now because I like it.

I bought this during the holidays last year. So far I have only used the pink cheek tint. I've tried it over powder foundation, liquid foundation and tinted moisturizer. It does not work over powder foundation. It didn't blend well and I ended up with splotchy cheeks. It is ideal over freshly applied liquid foundation and tinted moisturizer. I apply it before transluscent powder. This stuff is really pigmented. I just put a dab on my cheeks and blend it out. It gives me a fresh and glowy look. I'll update my review once I get around to using the other two colours.

I got these for Christmas from my sister but was considering picking some up anyway. My favourite is the rosy stick. I normally use The Body Shop Lip/Cheek tint which is a liquid and is a very bright pink. This is a much more natural colour and is easier to apply because you can't really go too overboard with it. The coral stick is pretty too but doesn't show up very well on my light olive skin. The third stick is a bronze/gold colour in the tube but basically applies seethrough with gold glitter. I would use this one too add a bit of sparkle on my cheekbones to go out to the clubs or something but it's a very young look in my opinion. I use the rose shade on my lips all the time under a bit of gloss and it works great. The smell of these is really nice too, smells very fresh and kind of appley.

Great little trio for 15.99! :) A steal of a deal esp compared to the tarte gel cheekstains... Basically comparable to the tarte trio.. the colours are coral (which it is), rosy (similar to blushing bride by tarte), and sheer sparkle (it looks bronze in the tube, but it comes out as a golden shimmer - to be clear, it's not a sheen but there are definite bits of 'shimmer').

Personally not a fan of shimmer, but the coral would be great for summer when you're tan and going for beachy look and rosy is great! (I already own tarte's flush and blushing bride)...

One more thing, in comparison to the tarte, I found these blushes to have less of a 'glow' they're gel - but more creamy than tarte's gels...

And of course, the price can't be beat! it's too bad it's LE - I might have to buy another pack...

Very cute! There are three mini blush sticks which have a gel like consistency and work like tints. One is 'pink' (looks like red jello with gold shimmer, give a pink tint), one is 'coral' (pretty pinky peachy shade with shimmer, give a pretty coral glow/highlight) and 'sheer with shimmer' (champagne with multicoloured microglitter, colourless but leaves tiny glitter ~ great for parties).
There were no testers, so I asked the SA's and they opened one with me and we all had a peek. (You can't tell the colours from the outside).
They sell for $14.99? at Shoppers Drug Mart. I'm already in love with the Coral one.

Each shade is useful for different things. I use the Pink (Which is more like a dark red shade) as a blush or lip stain, the shimmer one as a highlighter and the coral one is for anything! Blendable and well worth the money for sure :) The pink is my favourite, leaves a healthy-looking glow to the face. UPDATE: These stains last ALL DAY! I've had mine on for 7 hours now and it's still there! I wish they sold these invidiaully b/c the rosey one is a keeper for sure!
