A Rosy Glow (and Then Some)
Flower Beauty Kiss Me Twice Lip and Cheek Chubby Sticks, $10

These paraben-free, made-in-the-USA chubby sticks are highly pigmented, but easily blended, so dab onto lips and cheeks lightly and build up to your desired intensity. They also contain skin-plumping silicone powder and ceramidone to fill in lines and wrinkles.

For a Lipstick-Like Effect
YSL Babydoll Kiss & Blush, $40

The liquid-mousse formula of this stain quickly dries to a semi-matte finish, leaving no stickiness behind. If you're looking for something rich and pigmented -- but still blendable -- this is the one for you.

If You Can't Choose a Shade

Quirky packaging aside, this palette comes with six non-greasy, non-streaky shades that blend easily into cheeks and lips.

A Slight Stain
Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge for Lips and Cheeks, $26

Don't be afraid of how pigmented this little multi-tasker is in the packaging: It easily blends out and gives skin a sheer, dewy glow. The creamy formula leaves behind a hint of stain, so whether you dab it on your lips or cheeks, you can count on long-lasting wear.

There's no better harbinger of spring-ready skin than flushed cheeks and just-bitten lips. But as the weather heats up, even the most perfectly applied blush and lipstick can start cruising down your face. These new multi-tasking lip and cheek colors pack a punch in the pigment department, blend easily and impart a long-lasting flush. But here's the kicker: In this new crop of lip and cheek tints, you'll find a few that give your skin that classic luminous, dewy glow, but if you're looking for something with a little less shine, check out the new formulations with a mattified satin finish.
