Charlotte Tilbury's new blush sticks deliver a 'dreamy' summer glow without the sun

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.
