Maybelline Cheek Heat Gel-Cream Blush Makeup, Lightweight, Breathable Feel, Sheer Flush Of Color, Natural-Looking, Dewy Finish, Oil-Free, Pink Scorch, 1 Count

As I age, I an finding my skin getting dryer and duller looking. I used to like the look of matte foundations but now find they accentuate fine wrinkles. So I've updated my skin care products to more hydrating serums and moisturizers, and am using foundations that double as skin care products. In addition I was finding that my matte powder blushes were starting to look dry on my face a few hours after application. Even highlighter and slightly shimmery blushes looked dry. So I decided to try some creamy and liquid blushes to layer on over my serum and hydrating foundations. These little Maybelline Cheek Heat sheer gel-cream blushes are those I have found to be the most satisfying. I apply them using a sponge, dabbing on gently to retain the sheer, very slightly glossy (but not shiny or shimmery) color. They can be layered for more intense color if desired. They come in several flattering shades. Even tho they are a lower-end product as far as price goes, I find them to compare favorably to brands such as Armani, Dior, YSL etc. The quality excels. The colors stay sheer and completely natural looking with a fresh, hydrated finish. The product does not settle in fine wrinkles. An application done in the morning stays looking just as fresh well into the evening until removal. Price point is a real draw- a great quality and value for the money. My skin has responded to my new regimen of skin care and makeup and I now look refreshed and hydrated all day. Cheek Heat blushes are highly recommended.

great color and lasts a long time

Updated review: I added an extra star because after wearing it for a while the color did stay on all day. I like more dimension in color and I’m use to a multi colored blush palate verses one solid shade. So, my results improved after trying it again using my new bronzing cream first, then this blush gel, followed by a touch of my pink powdered blush. So basically I had to tweak my application and the color a bit to get the results I like. Original review: The coral ember is a bit more tawny than expected, I tend to like brighter. . Hard to squeeze out of tube and if used daily will run out fast since tube is small. Spreads very well using a small amount. It is creamy and kinda translucent and does not look dry or cling to facial lines. Probably good for a ‘no make up look’, over a tan or someone who wants a natural looking hint of color. I mistakenly thought this was like the old school gel blush which had a stronger color tint and was a true gel with no creaminess. I tend to like more contrast and brighter cheek definition with my coloring. If this isn’t enough, I’ll use it on no makeup days so I don’t look too washed out. It does have a nice understated shimmer and feels weightless on my face.

Easy to use, great color but color doesn’t last long and has to reapply often

If you’re looking for that 'lit-from-within' glow, this is it! The formula is so lightweight and feels more like skincare than makeup. It gives my cheeks a gorgeous, dewy finish that looks incredibly natural—like I just stepped in from a walk. I usually just dot it on and blend with my fingers, which makes it so easy for quick mornings. It’s the perfect 'no-makeup' makeup staple."

I like the color and it looked good on my skin, easy to apply

Worst cream blush I have ever tried. It was thick, heavy & wouldn't go on without mixing it with lotion or cream. Also it stained my face, even when mixing it with a very light lotion.

I LOOOOOOVVVVEEEE this cream blush!! I love the look of freshly applied cream blush but find that a lot of the ones that look the best in the morning don’t hang in there until the end of the day. This lasts all day with just the teensiest bit of setting powder on top. I purchased this in the nude shade but definitely want to try others. It is not detectable on your skin but still makes you look fresh & your skin look more awake. I so hope this is not quickly discontinued because I have not loved a product this much in a long time!!! UPDATE: I have now purchased all shades but the coolest light pink shade & have strong opinions on the other shades. 15 Nude Burn-the original shade I purchased and the one in the photo is still a favorite alongside 35 Berry Flame. Berry Flame is extremely flattering. A little goes a very long way. Berry Flame actually leaves a stain behind (warning-even on your fingers if you use them to apply!) and lasts all day & then some! This is where my positive review ends. 30 Coral Ember is the worst of all. Absolute junk-no color payoff, seems watery, I wouldn’t even give this to my ten year old as starter makeup-terrible, terrible color. 20 Rose Vibrant & 25 Fuchsia Spark are just okay for me. I will not purchase them again but they are better than Coral Ember by a mile. I am updating this only because I have seen numerous reviews from beauty youtubers tearing these apart & I agree-to a point-because the shades are so hit or miss, but do not let those bad reviews cause you to miss out on Nude Burn or Berry Flame!

No color shows up at all!!!!

Fake and very bad product no color cream

The best blush, in the best shade...what's left to say? Buy a tube NOW to add soft, glowing, natural, flattering (buildable) colour to ur cheeks! 🏆😍🥰

I really like that this blush feels just like a moisturizer... It blends in well and you can use the right amount of color on your cheeks you like . If I have one little complaint it is the tubing itself . I found the cream comes too fast or was a little slow. I love a liquid blush that has a roller ball on.

Didnt disappoint...Exactly ordered for light weight application
