What people say

Finalist - Best Blush - Live That Glow Awards 2026

Grace Day, beauty editor and aesthetician: "This totally lives up to its name - effortless to apply, a delicate watercolour finish, and a balm formula which doesn't apply too much pigment or leave skin with a cakey finish. I really love the sheer dewy finish."

Sally Underwood, Live That Glow editor: “What a gorgeous dewy flush of colour this leaves in its wake. Super easy to apply on the go, and almost impossible to overdo.”

Shannan Sterne, Live That Glow contributing beauty editor: "Biased because this is already my go-to blush! Glides on like a dream and makes me look fresh-faced (as the packaging says!) and healthy. Works especially well on dewy skin."

Winner, Best Blush - 2025 Beauty Shortlist Awards

Awarded Best Multi-Purpose Stick by Wardrobe ICONS and Alessandra Steinherr in the 2024 Beauty ICONS awards

Oooh! the deliciousness of this trio of hint-of-a-tint balms, which give you just the “fresh faced” look they promise. Given that we've always been balmy about balms, this hyaluronic acid and peptide enriched formula – to plump and smooth as it tints – is definitely finding its happy place in our make-up bags. No need to blend either; just swoosh and go…”

Sarah Stacey - Beauty Bible Loves

"Anyone who thinks they don’t like cream blushers: try this. A transparent gel stick…it feels like a cool slick of water with no oiliness at all…. perfect for blush-phobes who want to dip their toe in (not literally).”

Ingeborg van Lotringen, Get The Gloss

”I’ve tried a lot of this type of jelly sheer product and the Cosmetics A La Carte version is easily the best. It doesn’t leave an oily wash of colour – it’s more of a natural, transparent sheen that feels immediately at home on the skin. There is the perfect balance of colour and translucency.

Jane Cunningham, British Beauty Blogger

“brings a radiant, natural glow to your complexion, combining the lightweight, hydrating properties of a balm with a sheer tint…an essential in your beauty arsenal.

Wardrobe ICONS

“I’ve always been passionate about creating makeup that doesn’t look or feel like makeup. With Fresh Faced, it’s all about a barely-there youthful glow that couldn’t be easier to enjoy.”

Key Ingredients

Peptides

Peptides are amino acids that serve as building blocks for the proteins which maintain skin’s structure and firmness. The Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38 we use boosts collagen production and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It also supports fibronectin, laminin and elastin, improving skin firmness and elasticity and making it a key age-supporting ingredient.

Hyaluronic Acid

Sodium Hyaluronate, the salt of Hyaluronic Acid, is a potent humectant that naturally occurs in skin and connective tissue, retaining up to 1000 times its weight in water, and 370% more moisture even than collagen. Ageing reduces Hyaluronic Acid production, causing dryness, thinning, and wrinkles. Applying it topically re-plumps cells, improving skin appearance and smoothing out fine lines.

Glycerin

Glycerol, or glycerin, is a colorless, odourless liquid used in pharmaceuticals and food. It reduces wound inflammation and is approved for wound care and skin grafts. In skincare, its humectant properties draw moisture to the skin, mimicking the natural moisturizing factor, enhancing hydration, resiliency, and youthfulness without triggering allergies.

Micro-Milled Pigments

Encompassing the incredible cornucopia of vegan colourants used in varying quantities to create the vibrant shades which define lip and eye makeup. They in turn are derived from clever combinations of mineral petroleum and metal salts. We like to micro-mill our pigments to reduce particle size and obtain optimal colour development.
