This NYX Rouge Cream Blush in Glow was given by Lynn. She knew that I wanted something from NYX but I didn’t know what to take in and I’ve been hunting good cream blusher. I was so happy to receive this from her, it made me so excited about it. She told me that this shade is one of many favorites. Thanks so much for this cream blush!
The packaging looks very similar to MAC’s packaging, looks simple, classy and elegant. It weigh at 6.0grams with a flip top lid and will last for 9 months upon opening. It’s cruelty free or hypoallergenic. The pink seems quite dark, what till you look at the swatch.
Although it looks quite a deep color from it’s pan but it turn out to be soft playful pink and it finish off matte. Many of you know that I have oily skin but this last me very long by using it alone, maybe at 5-6 hours? It’s quite impressive for skin type like me. Imagine how lasting it is if I use it as a blush base. It does has a mild wax smell though. It’s very pigmented and easy to pick up. I simply use my fingertip to dab into the pan and pat it evenly on my cheeks and I’m done. I know it’s not advisable to dip my fingers in but I have not found any good blush brush yet. I’m looking upon ordinary and angled blush brush. Since I only need to use just a little on my cheeks, this blusher is going to last me forever which is pretty economical.
The ingredients for this blusher are:
Ceresin wax, Microcrystalline wax, Polythylene wax, Beeswax, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Mineral Oils, Isopropy Myristate, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Lanolin, Diisostearyl malate, Corn starch modifited, Mica, Silica, Titanium dioxide, Butylated hydroxy anisole, Propyl paraben.
I don’t really have any irritations from it. Unless if you have any allergic towards any ingredients above, its definitely safe to use this blusher. It’s only for USD7 in NYX Cosmetics.
PROs:
- Very pigmented
- Easy pick up
- Matte finish
- Last up to 5-6 hours for oily skin types
- Economical
CONs:
- Not available in Malaysia.
My rating: 4.8/5

I need to check out NYX! I’ve been to the site but I havent gotten anything yet. Everyone says it’s like N.Y.C but better! That pink is gorgeous. I may actually buy some blush now that I know how to apply it. LOL

hey Mina,
i’m wondering where do you get N.Y.C products?
I can’t seem to find it in any online websites.
Desperate to try some of their products.
Especially http://www.newyorkcolor.com/products/index.cfm?item=549
this reminds me of my TBS cream blush, i found that cream blush stays longer on me compared to powder blush
@LyNn – Sorry for the late reply! I just noticed when I came by.
I live in the US, so I get N.Y.C at just about any store. Aside from Canada, I’m not sure if it’s available world wide, which sucks! It’s an awesome yet affordable brand. =(
@LyNn – Thanks for the award sweetheart. There’s always a pattern when the award starts circulating.
@Shinbi_Belldandy – Really? I heard a lot of NYC too. They look aren’t too bad. I saw their website and some of their products looks really interesting. Oh, by the way, you look stunning in your new profile picture.
@prettybeautiful – Really? Is TBS good?
@voguefemme – Thank you! It’s a pic I took on Halloween when I got dressed!
Is this available in the UK? I cant seem to find it anywhere, and dont really want to pay the excessive shipping cost.
Looking for this article for around two days today . Just about the explanation I is longing for but nevertheless each broader angle on the study was presented.
Thank you. Hope this is useful for you.
