I fancy one because powder is such a hassle to carry around (with a big brush).

I've tried B Brown pot rouge a couple of times but a) it comes up shiny even though my skin is normal b) it doesn't last long on and c) there isn't a shade that really suits.

I'm looking at Chanel Les beiges but unsure which colour. I prefer a cross between peach and pink (am very pale) .

I've tried a Bourjois one which was cakey.
Clinique seems hard to blend on my hand (when tested.)

Any other ideas?

No7 do some good creme blusher sticks with zero glitter in them. They're nice and chunky. The finish on a creme blush will always be a bit dewy but these are sparkle free.

I had a thread on this a while ago. Some good suggestions. I ended up buying NARS matte Multiple in Exumas.
Still think the little Revlon pots are very good value if you don't mind the limited colour choice.

Sorry, Max Factor not Revlon.

Stilla convertible colour - good for lips and cheeks.

I have it in a few colours. Great for a make up bag as you can ditch the blusher brush and the lipstick.

Petunia is probably my favourite colour but I like poppy as well.

Charlotte Tilbury's colour of youth is also lovey (and the packaging is gorgeous).

It's more glowy than stilla though and a higher price point.

They sell Stilla at M&S now, so might be worth checking it out and playing with the testers if you are in the vicinity.

I quite like the benefit benetint lip and cheek stain - one of their first products when they were better.

I have a Laura Mercier stick blush and that is quite nice too, but I have to say I prefer powder! I apply it in the morning at about 6.30am and it doesn't budge all day with a decent base so no need to take it out with me.

I really like the No 7 Pop and Glow stuck. Blends very easily.

Liz Earle used to do a really perfect cream blush, pretty and long lasting too - such a shame it was discontinued.

Currently using an IT Cosmetics CC blush from QVC which is quite expensive but for quite a large pot, and it does give a very natural looking glow.

I like Daniel Sandler Watercolour blush . It comes in a tiny bottle and you can apply it with your fingertips. Comes in lovely colours too.

I quite like the e.l.f cream blush palettes and the individual cream blush in a little pot
