I think this may be the answer to me looking better quickly (after a long journey for example) but not carrying too much stuff around with me.

Any recommendations ? I have no7 but the colour is actually not great on me and they didnt have many options.

The Clinique Blushwear is brilliant, I have the 05 shy blush in my kit, its a subtle rose shade that suits a lot of skintones. I have used it on teenagers to mother of the bride, such a versatile colour. Lovely creamy to apply, not at all heavy and lasts for ages. Nars Multiple is fab as well, and Estee Lauder Minute Blush stick is lovely to use, but I would say the Clinique is my favourite at present.

And its bonus time at Clinique at Boots too Wink Would you say it stays on for longer than powder?

It all depends plentyofsoap, I put cream blush on over a good foundation then set by pressing in loose powder with a sponge and I find that lasts all day. I prefer cream for daytime wear as it gives a far more natural look and a lovely glow on the cheeks if you only powder the t-zone of the face. I always use cream blush on older skin, powder can sit in the lines around the eyes and look very ageing. The only downside to cream blush though is that it can't go on top of powder - cream goes on cream and powder sets cream, if you apply cream on top of powder it can curdle but you can always top up with a powder blush if you need to carry your makeup through the evening. If I'm honest I would say the Nars multiple last a bit longer than the Clinique, but I just love the versatility of the Shy Blush colour.
