i might as well throw away all of my other cheek products! I never use any of them after finding this.

This, along with Tipsy, is my favorite cheek stain. It is the prettiest pinky peach color, and you don't have to use a ton of it to get the color you desire (unlike Tipsy). I get compliments from my friends all the time on my "natural and healthy looking rosy cheeks".. I will NEVER go back to powder blush because I love the way the cheek stains make you glow. I am a fair, fair skinned brunette, and this color was made for me. Next I think I will try TEN or FLUSH for something different, but I will probably always come back to this color.

I hate blushes because when you put them on sometimes you put too much on and then you have to blend it real good, then put some powder over it for it to look natural but not this! I love this blush in True Love, i just rub it twice where i need it and take my blush brush to blend it. That's it, nothing else! It looks so natural it looks like i worked out and got a natural healthy blush to my cheeks. It also smells so good, yummy and i know it's also real healthy 'cause of the T5 Super Fruit Complex. I give this blush a 5 out of 5 stars.

I thought I would try this since I loved the Amazonian clay blushes, but I wasn't as satisfied with this. It felt sticky on my cheeks but the color was great. I think I will just stick with my powder blush from Tarte.

This is well worth the price in my opinion. A little goes a long way and it does not make me break out at all. Blissful is the perfect shade for my skin tone. I have a darker olivey complexion so it looks as if I came back from a brisk jog. I also apply some on my lips for extra color and it is so easy to layer. I never get tired of my dewey glow.

i luv it!!!!.. pure & simple.. it lasts for ever.. a little goes a long way. great natural color & I love the fact it doesnt have sparkles. very complimentary to my skin tone (light / medium brown skin- yellow , warm golen undertones). you can rock it in a subtle way with a slight pop on the cheeks or more daring & obvious because it has buildable color. I gave it 4.5 stars bc of the price, but trust youll get over that becuase of how long it lasts...definitely worth the dough

Just picked one of these up(My 8th cheek stain)! I gives a great peach color. It's not as bright as Tipsy, but is a much more suttle, natural pink. I love layering the Blissful AC 12 hour clay blush over this for an effect that lasts ALL day!

"Blissful" is my 7th Tarte Cheek Stain and I LOVE it. I have fair skin with pink undertones and I have a hard time finding cheek color that looks good on me. I really love this shade because its very subtle...it makes me look healthy and refreshed....not "made up".
Its not a color that I normally would buy, but I have never been unhappy with anything from Tarte and I wanted to try it out. I'm glad I did.
Tarte has converted me to a liquid/cream blush fan. I had never purchased them before because I assumed they would be greasy, hard to apply, etc. They are none of those things. I apply them by lightly dabbing and rubbing it on, with a makeup sponge or with a short bristled thick brush. They are not greasy and while they feel a little "sticky" initially, that feeling goes away immediately after you apply it.
Thank you Tarte for yet another wonderful product!

I have fair skin, pink undertones, and freckles. It's difficult sometimes for me to find something that's not too pink and not too orange/coral. This is a PERFECT shade of peachy pink. I apply with a makeup sponge, and it lasts all day. Even with daily use, this product will last me a long, long time. It's absolutely a staple in my makeup bag now :)

So far, Blissful is my favorite Tarte stain. It's more pigmented than Tickled and therefore is great when you want a blush that's a bit more noticeable (but still natural looking). Such a gorgeous peachy shade! It's a bit sticky when you apply, but after 5 minutes it dries down so it isn't a problem. It's so easy to apply, just dab it on with your fingers and you're good to go. It also has no noticeable shimmer when worn which I love. I hope it is available forever, I can see it being a staple in my makeup bag!

Best color in the cheek stains for fair wearing skin. I also think that peach or apricot are very universal colors. Everyone would be able to use this. Fair and light skin tones will love it as a blush. Medium will love it as a blush, could also probably double as a highlighter for them. Tan to deep tones will love it as a highlight color. It has the perfect ratio of shimmer in it. It is the best blush color Ive ever used. It is peach enough that I love it on the eyes. I love it on my cheeks and my lips. Great job with this color. Reminds me of the famous n@rs shade, but better and better for you and the planet. Now I just need a lip surgence or gloss in the exact same shade!

out of all the cheek stains, this is my favorite, it gives you such a nice natural glow!!
The only reason why I gave it 3 stars is becasue it can be a bit sticky & I wish it wasnt!! other than that, is a nice product!

When I opened the product it was darker than I thought it was going to be. As soon as I put it on it was amazing. The color was perfect. At first it was little bit sticky but then it absorbed and it was fine. I am used to using powder blush for my cheeks so I had to get used to the application of this stain but as soon as i found few tricks it looks amazing. =)

Blissful is the perfect color for me. I have fair skin so most blushes stand out way more than I like, no matter how much I try to work them in. I use it more than any other. I love how it looks so natural. It took a couple tries to figure how to use it, it was my first cheek stain, and now I think it is quicker to apply than powder blushes. I will definitely buy again.

Rachel from CA

This color is amazing. I wasn't sure if it would be too light on my medium-tan skin, but it just gives me a beautiful flushed look like I can't get enough of. I own a ton of blushes but haven't worn anything else since this came in the mail. I apply with my fingers and blend out until it looks just right and then move on to my eyes, and this is done drying by the time my eyes are done. It feels soft on my face and I never even notice it's there until I catch a glance in the mirror and notice a subtle glow that looks as thought it's coming out from within. This couldn't get more perfect and it appears that it will last forever and then some! I think that this will make a perfect top-of-the-cheekbone highlight for summer as well. Yay!

Danielle from MN

I love this product! It goes on so smoothly and it is truly such a natural glow. It's not so 'bam,' but rather nonchalantly beautiful. I will definitely be buying other colors and I don't think I'll be using regular powder blush much anymore. I just like a more natural effect, and this definitely accomplishes that. The price really isn't horrible when you see how much product you get and how much you use daily. It should last me a long time.

Brittany from NY

Great color for someone with light skin! Goes on fast and easy. Looks great applied either under or over foundation. Blends extremely well and easily. My only call out is that it is a little sticky when you first apply it, but it's easy to get used to and usually dries in 10-20 mins.

I have blonde hair and fair skin with pink undertones and Blissful looked the most natural. It gives you a nice glow. I also tried the shades in True Love and Doll Face, but didn't feel they looked as natural. True Love was very bright and Doll Face was too pink for my complexion.

These cheek stains are priceless! But I love the Blissful - it is such a perfect mix between pink and peach, and gives your cheeks that rosy color like you've just stepped in from a chilly day. A little big goes a loooooong way, and so that helps justify the price. It is definitely worth it - works well on the lips, too! Another great product by tarte!

I love Tarte's cheek stain! I have it in both Blissful and Blushing Bride and I plan on buying more colors! Blissful is a perfect peachy pink color that looks very natural. I have very oily skin and have always used powder blush, so I was a little hesitant about using this as I thought it might not work with my skin or make me break out. But it has worked wonderfully with my skin and does not make me break out! Now, I don't even reach for my powder blushes anymore. It doesn't take much to give a nice dose of color, so it will last a long time. Also, it might feel a little sticky right after you put it on, but I just give it a few seconds to sink in and then apply a light dusting of powder over it.

It does feel like chapstick going on at first, but once it dries a bit I didn't notice it. This color looks great on and stays all day. Comes in a small tube, which I was disappointed, but it doesn't take a lot to get the look I want.

How did I not know about this stuff before?! I just bought my first cheek stain in Blissful and absolutely love it. The color is a great peachy pink, that would compliment any skin tone. All it takes is just a little dab on the apples of your cheeks, to get the perfect all-day dewy glow-from-within look.

A really gorgeous color that's a little more peach than pink. Every time I wear it, my husband says I'm glowing and he's not the type of person who notices makeup. It really brightens your skin. I've seen this look great on both porcelain complexions and darker ones. I'd call this the NARS Orgasm of the cheek stains - universally flattering and pretty. Also looks great on lips. Can't recommend it enough.

Charlotte from UT

This is the shade I have now, though every shade I've tried so far (in store, or in the mini sets) has looked awesome- from pale pinks, to hot watermelon pinks, to purplish. I'm a pale girl so I was worried that some shades would clash with my skin tones, but they don't. I also have Dry skin, so some stains (like benetint) will actually stain a streak in the half a second it takes me to blend it. This stuff is perfect though, blends into skin without looking fake, doesn't streak, and no allergic reactions.

I have been reading wonderful things about Tarte cheek stains for a couple of years, but only just now finally decided to splurge and buy one for myself (as my b-day is coming up).

I love it and have decided to try some more shades as well.

I kept reading about Tarte Cheek Stain and everything I read RAVED about this product. I finally broke down and purchased my own and I am so glad that I did.

I was hesitant to use a gel cheek color because I just didn't think you could control the color like you do with a powder blush but I was WRONG. This water-based gel stays "workable" on your face and allows plenty of time to blend and perfect the application.

The results are VERY natural and so flattering. Your cheeks light up with a subtle and natural flush much as if you were blushing or glowing. I found that it really brightens my face and is such a sheer, luminous glow.

The color seems dark in the container but do not let that scare you. The product goes on as a very light tint. If you are looking for a more intense or deeper color you can layer the product by adding additional applications and the color will grow stronger.

You can easily apply the products with you fingers and the warmth from your fingertips will help the product to blend. If you don't want to use your fingertips, you can apply with a sponge or foundation brush.

Other things I should mention - the smell is wonderful...and the product is alcohol and oil free so it won't dry your skin nor will it clog your pores.

Blissful is bliss! This color is gorgeous and very work appropriate. It also looks nice on with a smoky eyeshadow look. Actually, it looks good with any look. The color isn't overpowering and It gives your face a nice glow. I have fair skin, hazel eyes with dark brown hair and the stain is suitable for me also. The swatch in the description makes it look a little more pink than what it really is. In reality it shows up more peach looking than that with maybe a touch of pink.
I wear this on my lips sometimes but I've noticed that this color wears off on my lips pretty quickly. Faster than other Tarte cheek stains when I apply them to my lips, but like all my other Tarte cheek stains, it lasts all day long on my cheeks.
These stains are expensive but they last forever. I honestly don't think I can get through more than halfway of one after using it every day for a year. That's how little it takes to achieve a really nice look with these. They really are worth the money and nothing even comes close to looking as good as these stains.

Also another thing that should be noted is that this stain tastes funny when it is initially applied to the lips. Once the stain dries on the lips, the funny taste goes away.
