I've been meaning to put together a Nudestix* review for the past few months now and after trying enough products from the brand, I finally feel like I can share a proper roundup of my favourites! Founded in Canada by chemical engineer Jenny Frankel and her daughters Taylor and Ally Frankel, Nudestix is known for their easy-to-use stick formulas and effortless approach to makeup. Let’s take a look at the products in my collection and what I'd recommend picking up!
As you can see, the products I have most of are blush and there are three formulas here - cream, liquid and cream to powder). Starting with the full sizes, I have the Nudies Matte All Over Face Blush Colour* in Sunkissed Pink (a cool pink). This is the original formula and delivers a bold, matte, longwear colour with a natural finish. I also have the Nudies Matte Lux All Over Face Blush Colour* in Nude Buff (a neutral warm rose tan) and Juicy Melons (a coral) which are cream-to-powder, blurring and buildable. I love both formulas and the main difference I find is the Lux version has a little more slip and is less pigmented so easier to build! They all come with a built-in removable brush which is perfect if you are on the go and come in a cute tin with a handy mirror too! If you're new to Nudestix, I'd especially recommend starting with the Nudies Matte All Over Face Blush Colour range as they're easy to apply, blend beautifully and come in a wide variety of flattering shades.

I also have the Mini Pink Nude Blush Kit* (which also comes in a tin with mirror in the lid) and three of their bestselling Nudies Matte All Over Face Blush Colour in the shades Bare Back (a neutral nude pink), Naughty N’ Spice (a neutral deep rose) and Cherie (a neutral nude coral-rose). The formula is so easy to work with - you can apply directly to the skin or use a brush and they blend easily, last well and are suitable for face, lips and eyes! The shades are super flattering and the mini size is perfect for travelling!

Next up is the Nudescreen SPF 30 Blush Tint* and I have the shades Sunny Sweet Cheeks (a warm, soft coral pink), Strawberry Sunburst (a warm, rich coral red) and Peaches N’ Sol (a warm, fresh peach). These are tinted liquid blushes safe for cheeks, lips and eyes. The formula is lightweight and hydrating and the pigment is easily buildable and doesn’t wear off on my skin throughout the day - I like to squeeze onto the back of my hand then pick it up with a brush and apply so I can build it up! Strawberry Sunburst in particular really mimics the look of a natural hint of colour from the sun (but in a much safer way!). They protect against UVA/UVB rays, blue light, and environmental stressors and are also reef-safe! I obviously use SPF all over as normal but it’s nice to have a little extra on part of my face that picks up the sun!

Finally for blush, I have the Stax Blush Balm* in Barely Nude (a neutral warm rose tan) which gives a beautiful, subtle flush to my cheeks! I love the magnetic packaging and this is also stackable with other shades in the formula! All three formulas are so easy to work with, buildable and last all day on my combo skin - though worth noting I powder my skin before applying!
For base, I have the Nudescreen Daily Mineral Veil SPF 30 in Nude*. This is a light, hydrating, and oil-free SPF lotion that helps protect against free radicals as well as blue light. It is reef-safe and a mineral formulation that comes in an airless pump-tube to protect the formula's stability and makes it easy to dispense. The shade nude was a little darker than I was expecting so I do wonder if I should have got the shade Cool which is untinted! Despite being darker than expected it does sheer out once you start rubbing it in and I like to use this under foundation and it gives a really lovely base and helps protect my skin!
Lastly, I have the Hydrating Peptide Lip Butter* which has become a handbag staple for me and I just finished one a few weeks ago so I was glad to have a back up! It’s a glossy lip balm that contains avocado and shea butters to keep lips hydrated as well as lip plumping peptides to increase lip fullness. It has a lovely fresh vanilla mint flavour and I would love to try a tinted shade next!
Overall, I've been really impressed with the Nudestix makeup products I've tried so far. While this collection only scratches the surface of the brand's extensive makeup and skincare range, every product has been easy to use, blendable and suitable for everyday wear. My standout product is definitely the Nudies Matte All Over Face Blush Colour thanks to its long-lasting formula, flattering shades and versatility across the cheeks, lips and eyes. If you're looking for effortless, natural-looking makeup, Nudestix is absolutely a brand worth exploring. They are also cruelty free and Leaping Bunny certified!
As well as directly on their own website, Nudestix are available at Sephora and they regularly have deals on their products! Have you tried much from Nudestix? What are your favourites?
