Charlotte Tilbury’s new blush sticks give a ‘dreamy’ summer glow

| 3 286


Charlotte Tilbury has launched a new range of blush sticks that promises a ‘dreamy’ holiday glow. The Unreal Blush Healthy Glow Stick is said to deliver a skin-blurring, sunkissed look. 

Following the success of its Unreal Skin Sheer Glow Tint Foundation Stick last year, Charlotte extended the travel-friendly package design onto blushes across six shades suitable for warm, neutral and cool skin tones. Priced at £30 or £54 in a duo pack, they have a hydrating balm texture and glide on effortlessly. 

Available in pink, rosy, cherry, berry, peachy and pretty glow, the Blush Sticks are packed with anti-ageing properties to strengthen skin barrier while the luminous pigment gives a flattering ring-like effect that casades the light across the face. 

Charlotte called it a « mistake-proof » invention and recommended blending with the fingers for on-the-go top ups, or with a blush for a sculpted effect. She added: « I wanted to bottle the unreal glow of Ibiza sunsets and golden hour, that dreamy glow of happiness you get when you are on holiday.

« That stunning, summer-kissed glow you are blessed with from a day at the beach, and that healthy skin glow that everyone compliments you on after a trip to the spa. »

The Charlotte Tilbury Unreal Blush Health Glow Stick leaves a glazed effect on the cheeks and shoppers who prefer a matte finish might find it tricky to pat setting powder. Some fans find it too expensive for a blush stick and there are other more affordable options that can double as a lip tint.

Meanwhile, Milk Makeup’s Lip & Cheek offers a two-in-one cream blush and lip tint. Shoppers can get this in Boots’ Minis Bag Get Holiday Ready, along with six other products, for £32.50.

Merit’s Flush Balm, £26, comes with more shades but it’s not a retractable stick, which can be difficult to apply when it reached the bottom. Clinique Chubby Stick Cheek Colour Balm, £20.80, can also be layered to build up the shade intensity.

But the skincare-infused formula works to improve the skin’s health from within, the « magic ingredient » of Collageneer helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles while hyaluronic acid contributes to provide up to 24 hours of hydration for plumper-looking skin.
