Clinique Chubby Stick Cheek Colour Balm - Amp' Up Apple

Simply swivel up a small amount of product and apply directly to the apples of your cheeks. Blend outwards with your fingertips, a brush, or a sponge for a seamless finish.

While it works best over cream or liquid foundations, you can apply it over powder. For a more noticeable effect, pat it on gently rather than swiping, or consider using a cream blush formula.

Yes, Clinique products are typically formulated for sensitive skin and are often dermatologist-tested. This balm is lightweight and non-greasy.

Apply a sheer layer first, blend it in, then add additional layers as needed. Allow each layer to melt into the skin before applying the next for a natural build.

It provides a natural, sheer to medium buildable wash of color with a dewy, just-flushed finish.

Only twist up a small amount of product (about 1/4 inch or less). This prevents the stick from breaking or becoming damaged.

While designed for cheeks, some users find the balm can be used as a sheer lip tint. However, its formula is optimized for facial skin.

Ensure you are twisting the base in the correct direction. If the product is stuck, try gently tapping the base on a hard surface. Do not force it.

Apply additional layers of the balm, allowing each layer to blend into the skin before adding the next. You can also try a slightly deeper shade.

Ensure you are using the correct amount. If applying over a dewy foundation, allow the foundation to set slightly first. Blend thoroughly.

For longer wear, apply over a primer or set lightly with a translucent powder after application. Ensure the skin is clean and dry before application.
