What the gurus are saying

This stick blush splits the room. One expert finds it delivers straightforward powder blush in a handy stick format with a flattering bright pink shade, while another sees it as forgettable and uninspired. If you like the simplicity of a classic powder blush with stick convenience, it may appeal to you; if you're after something distinctive, it may not grab you.

"I don't find this exciting in any way to be honest with you. Polite Society is a brand I'm not going to use anyway. It's by the owner of Too Faced, I want to say, and I don't like it. [...] Some of these shades look nice, Miami, Los Angeles, Sydney stand out to me as nice shades, but I just don't find it exciting in any way. [...] The packaging looks cheap, the font actually looks pretty cheap too. Yeah, I'm not into it. It's like powder blush in a stick. We've all seen a stick before."

"It just says everything you love about powder blush and the convenience of a stick. That's a cute color. I like a good bright pink and I feel like it's matching the now color of my lips after I put that plumping gloss on. That's really cute."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Sunscreen filters

Sun protection is the best evidenced way to slow visible ageing, and the filters are what does the work. Mineral and chemical filters both protect when a product is applied thickly enough and often enough, which is where most people fall short rather than on the choice of filter.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
