Like flushed cheeks (4)
I believe the answer is:
rosy
'like flushed cheeks' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for rosy that I've seen before include "Hopeful; blushing" , "Pink; promising" , "lady" , "Healthy-looking" , "Blushing - optimistic" .)
