Blusher recommendations!

[tastingthestars]

I'm really struggling to find a blusher that actually stays on my face after I walk out the door! I just want a nice colour/flush.

Cream blushes just seem to disappear into my skin, and I haven't found a powder one that works.

Admittedly I haven't looked far and wide - but I thought seeking recommendations is always a good start!

I don't wear a full face of makeup everyday, i.e. just concealer to cover blemishes but not foundation/powder unless I'm going out. But my cheeks aren't oily, which I did wonder if that would be a cause of blusher evaporation. Perhaps I am doomed to no nice colour unless I wear a fuller face of makeup? (BB cream maybe?)

Recently I have tried a Max Factor cream blush which disappears.

Sleek blushers - don't seem noticeable after a while.

Benefit I have paler shades or bronzier ones (Dandelion and Dallas). I also have Benefit Posietint which has no effect.

Any recommendations wise ones?! Preferably high street, but I am willing to go up to normal department store make up counter level (Clinique, Bobbi Brown etc)

Higher end cream blush? I have Chanel in the shade Intonation -- it's an orange-toned pink that is almost neon in the pan but looks like a lovely, fresh flush on the cheeks. If I want extra staying power I sweep a similar-shade of powder blush on top to 'set' it. Stila do nice ones.

I have always found the Benefit tints to be quite potent, but Posietint is definitely the most subtle. Try Cha Cha Tint for a more coral-coloured shade that is definitely quite strong, or the newly-released Lollitint if you prefer pinks -- it looks terrifyingly purple-pink before you rub it in but provides a lovely, long lasting flush of colour. You do need to work quickly with blending it though.

(I am super pale and cool toned, your results may vary. )

My Laura Mercier cream blush is brilliant.

MUA powder blush in shade Dolly. The perfect blush. Here it is on me 12 hours after I put it on (I'm on the left)

Lily Lolo do some very highly-pigmented blushes. Need a VERY light hand to apply. They used to do sample pots but I'm not sure if that is still the case...I've a feeling it isn't

I like Dandelion and Posietint, but agree that Benetint is stronger, have you tried that?

Cream blush lasts longer if you either use a matching powder blusher on top, or set it with powder and reapply another layer or cream blush on top.

I love clinique powder blush - I use innocent peach & it stays on (similar colour to the one BigPawsBrown is wearing except slightly pinker). But I always have foundation on underneath.

Nars powder blush

I use the Chanel cream blusher in shade 67. It's a scary pink that blends really well to a rosy tint. It stays all day.

[SorrelForbes]

Sorry, it's shade 65!

I've got a Laura Geller in Roseberry (had it for years ) and it is the perfect shade for me.
It's a baked cream so it's in a powder form but not drying.

[AntoinetteCosway]

You definitely need a cream with a powder over the top.

Topshop Head Over Heels cream blush is a lovely 'flush' colour and seems to last pretty well - I set it with powder too.

I use a lip stick as a blusher, it's easy to apply and easy to match as their are lots of shades. It's a no- brainer for me!

I use MAC, which is buildable and really stays on all day. It lasts forever as well, I use it pretty much daily and have had it about 18 months so far, with probably another few months left ignores rules about throwing away old makeup

Bobbi brown Creme blush and nars powder blush. Fab.

[MrsMeow]

just looked and it's shade 'mocha' which despite how it sounds is a lovely rosy matte pink.

this one

I vote MAC particularly the shade 'springsheen' you can apply lightly for a flush of colour or build it up. I you buff it slightly it gives a slightly golden effect too. I love it.
