I have a complexion that really relies on blusher to make me look healthy but I've never really found one I love. I'm going shopping today and my Bare Minerals (not really a fan) has just run out so I'm hoping to try something new. Can anyone tell me what they use and why they love it?

I quite like the Max Factor Cream puff ones, btw they are not a cream. They contain tiny sparkles but they are lovely. Mac blushers are also nice and the ones I have have no sparkle.
SmadhBox do chubby pen cream blushers with are great too.

BusterGonad · 30/08/2017 10:02

And you can't go wrong with Max Factor cream blushers, they are tiny like a single eyeshadow but go on well and look lovely and dewy!

Cakescakescakes · 30/08/2017 10:03

I would also recommend the max factor ones. Lovely texture when applied and very long lasting.

claireybeee · 30/08/2017 10:08

Brilliant! Thank you. I'll have a look for the Max Factor one today. Long lasting is what I really need so fingers crossed it works for me too.

If you want to go all out then Chanel Pink Explosion is beautiful!

claireybeee · 30/08/2017 10:11

Can I just check if it's the Cream Puff or the Miracle Touch that you guys use?

Benefit Dandelion - really subtle: like 'your face but better'. It takes me from corpse to almost alive in two quick sweeps.

BusterGonad · 30/08/2017 10:33

Cream puff blush is the powder.
Miracle touch is, I believe, the cream.
Here is the powder in lovely pink.

Clinique blushing powder blushes are the best Ive used.

stoplickingthetelly · 30/08/2017 11:00

I like the bobbi brown powder ones. Lots of colours to choose from, no glittery bits and really do last all day. They are expensive, but last forever.

Fozzleyplum · 30/08/2017 11:17

Have a look at the Milani baked blushes; they are often recommended as Mac dupes.

CremeDeSudo · 30/08/2017 11:18

I came on to recommend Max Factor creme blush too. It's the only blusher I've ever used up and had to replace!

Cakescakescakes · 30/08/2017 14:55

Buster that's the exact one I have. I love it so much!! I've bought a more plum tones one too which is also beautiful. They are light years ahead of my Laura Mercier one whichever I was using before.

DIORSKIN ROSY GLOW
HEALTHY GLOW BOOSTER BLUSH

Sorry for all capitals-copied name from website Smile This product is amazing and lasts a very long time making it good value for money. It gives me a really healthy looking rosy glow.

" The fresh and luminous color upon application develops into a rosy blush to suit each individual complexion for an incredibly natural, custom healthy glow that lasts all day."
m.dior.com/en_gb/fragrance-beauty/makeup/face/blush/pr-blush-y0715100-healthy-glow-booster-blush.html

Maybe try it at one of the counters if you're unsure how the colour will develop on your cheeks.

Cakes I have the berry one too! Great minds think a like!

TheSleeperandTheSpindle · 30/08/2017 16:19

Came on to recommend the dior one that Jaimx86 has linked. It is expensive initially but lasts ages and it develops based on your skin so gives you a colour which suits you.

TallulahBetty · 30/08/2017 16:23

The £1 MUA ones from Superdrug. I kid you not. They last all day

MissJC · 30/08/2017 16:23

Nars Orgasmic. Leaves a rose gold tint, lasts all day and looks beautiful!

MissJC · 30/08/2017 16:24

Nars Orgasm not orgasmic Confused

BluebellGal · 30/08/2017 17:22

Nars orgasm suits everyone (so my wedding make up artist told me)

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 30/08/2017 17:30

Not a fan of Orgasm - too sparkly.

bigredboat · 30/08/2017 17:43

Tarte Amazonian clay blushes, I think you can only get them in the uk via QVC but they are fab.

BusterGonad · 31/08/2017 09:35

Which one did you buy Op?

mintmagnummm · 31/08/2017 09:43

I love max factor cream puff too I have nude mauve and alluring rose

claireybeee · 01/09/2017 09:35

Thanks for all your recommendations! I went for the max factor cream one and so far I'm really loving it, a little goes a long way so hopefully it'll last me. Very tempted to go back and pick up the cream puff too..
