Awesome!

I recently bought a trial kit that came with one of the mini color sticks and a bottle of the luminizer. I'm not typically a huge fan for cream stick blushes, but I like that this is very pigmented with a gentle stroke. I highly suggest putting a dot on each cheek and then using a firm contouring brush to stroke and even it out to where you want color. The color does last throughout the day and because this has argan oil in it, it feel very hydrating on my cheeks, especially because I have eczema and rosacea. The stick that I own has as little bit of shimmer, but it's mostly more of a dewy finish. I like the way it looks, but not necessarily how it feels. It kind of feels a bit greasy to the touch when I place my fingers over where I blended the color. A little translucent powder solves that feeling, but it diminishes a bit of the dewy finish. One of these sticks is going to last a long time, but I think they're perfect for taking one with you when you travel or if you don't have a lot of time to get ready in the morning. They're also great for touching up throughout the day. Another plus about this is that it hasn't caused me to break out, but then again, luckily nothing from Josie Maran has given me any problems. A beautiful tip is to put a stroke over your eyelids for a pretty flush. This also has a slight argan oil scent to it as well, but I find it very pleasant. — 3 months ago

A bit dry considering it's made with Argan oil

I love cream blushes because they are easy to blend and they tend to last longer throughout the day. However this cream color stick is not easy to blend and its hard to put on. It felt like it was really dry considering it's made out of Argan oil. The color tone I have is petal pink and it does give a nice pinky glow, I just wish it were easier to blend. — 3 months, 1 week ago

Great!

This was my first experience with Josie Maran, and I must say that I'm in love. The Argan Color Stick is similar in texture to NARS color sticks and has great color payoff. Despite having a hint of shimmer, there isn't any grittiness to the texture and it glides on evenly with the ability to blend after. The color, Petal Pink, is described as a neutral pink shade on the Sephora website, but I would say it has a hint of warmth. Not so much as to overwhelm those of us who are fair skinned, but enough to bring warmth to wherever it's applied. This little guy is a multi-tasker too in that it can be worn both on the lips and cheeks. Pretty and practical! It has a distinct minty/herbal scent, but it doesn't linger and certainly isn't detectable when worn. If you are particularly sensitive to scents in your facial products, you might rethink purchasing, but aside from a pleasant fragrance when opening the product, I didn't notice much else. — 3 months, 1 week ago
