Kiko Velvet Touch Creamy Blush Stick

Kiko is a brand that can be quite hit or miss. They have some incredibly reasonably priced products so whenever I go in there I end up coming out with a few products to try and most of them are good to great - some of them go straight in the 'giveaway' box. One thing I should mention is that their packaging always fails... anything twist up from them has stopped twisting efficiently fairly early on. That's ok - you get what you pay for and with most make-up products a large majority of what you pay for is packaging.

Anyway, I bought this Velvet Touch Creamy Blush Stick in Golden Peach about two years ago and for some reason it never made it into regular use. It was only when I was testing the Ilia Multistick earlier in the year that I remembered I had this and when and dug it out of my blusher stash and started using it. The colour I have is really lovely, I much prefer it to the famous NARS Orgasm as it's less harsh on paler skin but has the gold flecks through it.


As will all cream blushers this does wear off during the day but I usually set it with a matte blusher of similar colour on top - the gold shows through and it gives it a bit more longevity.

Why buy a blusher that doesn't stay on your face? Well a lot of make-up doesn't stay on allll day and for the price this is great - very pretty, reasonably long lasting, easy to apply with fingers, brush or sponge and because it's not expensive you can take it anyway without the fear of losing it or leaving it behind.
