Daniel Sandler liquid blushers are good: www.feelunique.com/p/Daniel-Sandler-Watercolour-Blush-15ml

Sleek blushers are good too, but very pigmented so be careful when applying.

You could also use a normal lipstick (the classic type in the bullet, not one of the newer types such as liquid) as a blusher. I'd think that more matte/dry lipsticks might last longer than the more balm-like lipsticks.

I find that Mac powder blushers last well on me. I use them on top of foundation and (usually) powder and despite having oily skin, I find that they last 6-8 hours minimum. Cream blushers, no matter the brand, usually don't last very long on me.

If you're not using a primer already, maybe that will help your makeup last longer. There are also setting sprays that could help.

I think that gel and liquid blushers work much better on oily skin.

They actually put a very light "stain" on the skin, so it's harder to come off, rather than powders that just sit on top, ready to get wiped off at the drop of a hat.
