Best blusher for tired, 47 year old skin!

[Yoyoyo1]

Hi,
I can't seem to find the perfect blusher. Everything I try just doesn't seem to work anymore! TIA.

I use Glossier Cloud Paint. It’s really lightweight and builds nicely if you want a bit more colour. Stila duo lip/cheek is great too, I used that for years.

Second Stila. I buy it from Marks and Spencer.

What is it that doesn't work? Colour? Formula? What is your colouring?

I have pale skin (but not in an interesting way)! The ones i try leave now colour or an artificial colour. I just want one to warm up my skin that lasts.

I use a powder blusher and a brush. I like Mac. The colour is not brash at all and looks natural.

I always use the guide from my own face for blusher. Go for a brisk walk or do some heavy gardening outside. Come in and look to see where your cheeks are pink and apply blusher to those places.

Bobbi Brown cream blush - I use "fresh melon". It's very subtle.

Another vote for Glossier Cloud Paint. It's very buildable and a tube lasts forever.

I use charlotte tilbury pillow talk powder blush

I am a similar age and recently changed where I apply blusher. I think I saw it on one of those MUA videos for over 40s or somesuch.
I used to apply roughly to apples of cheeks, but now it's sort of further back and a bit higher up. Right up to temple area.
I really like how that looks.

Glossier cloud paint here too! It breathes life into my exhausted face!

Trinny

Another vote for Cloud paint

Look at Hourglass, all their powder face products are brightening and make you look more awake

The Hourglass ones are lovely, and I like the Trinny for a quick swipe of colour. Cheapie Makeup Revolution pallets are nice.

Thank you - which colours would u recommend. I'm pale, blonde/brown hair.

I’m fair and I use puff.

Agree this is gorgeous for pale complexions. As is Powder Pink by BB.

Powder Pink on me is more of a natural flush, and I wear Fresh Melon in summer for a more vibrant but still natural colour. I’m pale, blue eyes, dark hair freckled!

I like cloud paint too. I wear Storm and Eve. Storm is favourite though. You only need a tiny bit and it works well on lips too.
Barry M do a great dupe.

Charlotte Tilbury - Ecstasy. A gorgeous peach. I wear it nearly every day.

Same. It is very pink but you only need the merest smidge.

Yes to glossier cloud paint! The cream blushes make the skin look a lot more hydrated!

Another Stila fan here. Pale skin and freckles. I use Peony. Try in M& S.

Thank you everyone - off to search!

Colour-wise, it is important to know if you have cool or warm undertones.
If you wear the right colour, it will really lift your face.

I suit "Summer" colours, i.e. cool colours, and look totally awful in peach or bronzer.

Having your "colours done" will help massively.

Pale vote for cloud paint. Dusk in summer and Storm in winter (or I mix them). I am pretty pale, cool/neutral toned with brown hair.
