Hi Darlings, today’s post is going to be the review and swatch of the elf Monochromatic Multi-Stick in the shade Dazzling Peony.
With the warmer weather approaching, I’m going back to cream blushes and since elf has recently launched in Italy I’ve decided to give this one a go.
The stick formula seems very practical.
You can buy it here for 4$.
COLOUR
This shade is a warm pink.
PACKAGING
The packaging is really small and travel-friendly, good to take around for touch-ups, although I wouldn’t suggest to stripe it on because it’s not very sanitary.
The shade is written on the bottom and it twists completely up and down which is awesome because you don’t risk ruining it.
PIGMENTATION & FORMULA
The formula has a sheer pigmentation which I like because it helps to avoid the clown effect.
It looks very glowy which again it’s nice but it also breaks the foundation underneath so whatever you put underneath it rubs off, especially if you use the stick directly.
You can’t use it over powders so you have to remember to put it on.
APPLICATION
I put it on the back of my hand and apply it with my fingers. It gives me more control and it helps avoid the foundation from breaking.
SWATCH
LASTING POWER
On me, it lasts around 5 hours without fading.
RATINGS:

- Packaging: 7/10
GRADE: B-
This blush is nice, I like the shade but the formula is a bit complicated to work with, you have to use your fingers and it’s not as practical as it looks but it’s very affordable, so if you like the shade I’d go for it. You definitely won’t hate it.

It’s very pretty and it looks nice on you! I don’t wear blush too often unless it’s closer to my skin tone but I love that it’s affordable. Great review!
Thank you 💕
What a pretty color! I love multi-functional products like this.
It’s so nice!
I do like the shade but not that comfortable with the roll on creme format. Thanks for the review
Thank you for reading 💕
I’ve heard amazing things about these stick blushes from ELF, but haven’t tried this formula yet. I’ve had stick blushes before from other brands and I barely ever just apply it from the tube, because it can shift things around underneath. So as long as this one blends out nicely with a finger, and doesn’t stick down to the cheek in patches, I’d be good with it!
If you use the the stick directly this will do that but it blends nicely
