Anastasia Peachy Keen Stick BlushAnastasia Peachy Keen Stick Blush ($32.00 for 0.28 oz.) is a medium, slightly muted coral with warmer, more orange-leaning undertones paired with a matte finish. The texture felt smooth, lightly emollient, and thinner, but it spread readily over bare skin and layered over foundation without lifting it up. The formula dried down to a more powder-like finish, which helped it stay matte, but it looked more “natural matte” where my skin didn’t get mattified.
It had medium pigmentation when applied with a brush and more semi-opaque coverage when applied with a fingertip, and the coverage was buildable from there with both types of tools. It stayed on well for seven and a half hours before fading a bit.

The formula is supposed to have “natural-looking color” with a “seamless finish” paired with a “buildable and blendable” formula that can go from a “sheer wash to a more intense, vivid pop.”
The consistency was lightly emollient, thin, and had good glide, but it was quick to dry down and set to a powder-like finish. I felt that I had enough time to work with the product one cheek at a time, and I didn’t have issues with applying it on top of bare skin or over foundation. I think the lack of shimmer/sparkle made the Stick Blush formula easier to work with than the Stick Highlighter formula.
The cream blushes lasted between seven and eight hours on me.
