Best blusher for a pale person...

Looking at Mumsnet S&B as you all seem to recommend great products to me.

I need a new blusher, I'm fairly new to the world of using blush and up to now I've only used Lily Lolo in Rosy Apple, which is apparently a pink-brown. However it's quite clumpy in the pot and I'm finding it difficult to get a light but even coverage. So does anyone have any recommendations for for me? I've only really got drug store brands available to me, at the moment, but could venture to Debenhams at the weekend. I've heard bourjois are quite good?

I am really pale and use benefit's posie tint. It stays on all day and is great if you are pale

I'm pale and I use NARS Deep Throat.

I also have dandelion from benefit but although I'm pale this doesn't give me enough colour as a blush. I still need some colour to look human healthy.

Deep Throat is my most treasured make up, I need a good blusher every day and this is it.

I've also had benetint and found it a faff trying to rub it in before it dried and applying over and over to get the right colour and then looking like a china doll, so gave up with that.

I've also recently bought a brilliant blusher brush from Barbara Daly at Tesco. It's contoured, for, er countouring I guess... And is really good quality, I've been very impressed.

Another fan of NARS Deep throat here. No matter how many other blushers I buy, I always go back to it. I had high hopes for Benefit's Sugarbomb, but it is quite disappointing. NARS Orgasm is pretty good as well.
