Daiso KM Stick Cheek 03a

Stick blush changed how a lot of people think about cheek colour — it's fast, buildable and blends with a fingertip in about ten seconds. This one from Daiso KM in shade 03a gives you a warm, flushed finish that looks like it came from within rather than sitting on the surface. Throw it in your bag, swipe it on, and you're done. No brush required.

• ✦Stick format — the fastest way to add cheek colour, no brush or mirror needed
• ✦Shade 03a — a warm, natural-flushed tone that suits most Bangladeshi skin tones beautifully
• ✦Cream-to-powder finish — melts in like a cream but dries down to a soft, long-wearing powder
• ✦Buildable — one swipe for a flush, two for something more defined

• ✦Iron Oxides & D&C Pigments — deliver the warm, skin-flattering flush of colour with true-to-stick payoff
• ✦Isododecane — lightweight carrier that makes the stick glide on smoothly without dragging or pulling
• ✦Dimethicone — helps the formula blend seamlessly into skin and transition from cream to powder finish
• ✦Jojoba Esters — keep the stick formula soft and easy to apply while preventing it from melting in humidity

1. Smile lightly and swipe the stick onto the apples of your cheeks
2. Blend upward toward the temples with your fingertip in circular motions
3. Layer a second swipe for more colour — set with translucent powder for longer wear
