This stain smells wonderful like a sweet berry cereal but it's not overly sticky sweet - i.e. it won't make you nuts or make you feel like a living strawberry. The cheek stain comes in a cute little recyclable roll-on container. You roll it onto your cheek directly or fingers then blend onto your cheek. The stain stays liquid-like for about 20 seconds so you have time to smudge. 20 seconds to blend before it dries.
The end result is a natural looking blush with just a hint of color - as if you were really lightly blushing. It doesn't look like you're wearing make-up.
There are also some sweet subtle pretty sparkles in the stain so your cheeks glow lightly. I usually don't like blush at all, but this stain was totally different and mistake proof. I'd buy it again and I'm normally a lip gloss only sort of girl.
