good cream/gel blush available from Boots?

I want to switch from powder to cream/gel blush as the aging process is turning my previously greasy skin a bit drier. Can anyone recommend where to start? I need to order some other stuff from Boots so would be keen to pick one up from them if possible.

People love Stila convertible cheek and lip! Lots of colours too x

Do they sell Collection make up there still? If yes I really like this and it's pretty cheap

I don't like Stila! Find it too sticky and thick.

Max factor have done a creamy blush for years. I really like it.

thank you! Doesn't look like Boots do that particular Collection product. Also the Stila colours available look really dark - not sure if they have lighter ones but out of stock? I am pinky-fair so need a lightish blush.

I use Collection’s Speedy Blush Stick, I’m pale and blonde so use the ‘Cheeky’ shade. Boots do stock it but it seems to be often out of stock so I’ve bought it from Ebay.

How much do you want to spend? I like the Fenty cream blush which you can click and collect from Boots, but I think it's about £18.
A lot of cream blushes look dark but go on more sheer, depends on the formula.

I've got my eye on a Fenty cream blush too.

TheTurnOfTheScrew · 14/07/2020 13:51

I am normally more at the L'Oreal/Max Factor price point but if the Fenty one is the business then £18 is doable. And if I get it on my Boots order then I've saved a few quid on either delivery or parking Smile.

I have been using the No7 cream blush. It's a nice colour on me, but it's a bit baffling that there is only one colour of blush! You can layer the colour to get the intensity you want, and it wears evenly over the course of the day. I wear the Calico foundation shade by No7.

Pixi do a lovely gel one and I’m pretty sure Boots stock them x

Benefit benetint is my favourite
