Please recommend a cream blusher!

[Iwasntgettingasandwich]

I've worn blusher pretty much everyday for well over 20 years, it is (along with eyebrow gel now) often the only make up I wear. I am pale and it makes me look so much better.

I used to use creamblush occasionally but have used powder for years. I really want to go back to a cream or liquid blush though but don't know where to start anymore. I don't want to waste money so would like some ideas, happy to go from cheap budget through to something more pricey though.

If it makes me look like I did at 28 rather than my current 38 that would be very much appreciated!

Daniel Sandler watercolour are lovely

I like Petal and Angel, there’s a colour suggestion quiz by skin tone.

Thank you, that is one I have considered before. Is it easy to use? I've never got one with tint ones (like Benetint). Love the look but am just not that refined!

Yes very easy, I use Petal in the black tube most days. I put it more cheeky bone towards temple, than apples now I’m older 🙂

I find Benetint a pain as it dries before blended. This is nothing like that, it’s very easy to blend and stays put.

Revolution Super Dewy blusher is a great budget option.

Glossier cloud paint is fantastic

Try using lipstick. Honestly you can't tell the difference and it matches brilliantly if you use it on your lips as well.

Stila convertible cream blushes are lovely.

I’ve got Daniel Sandler Petal and one of the Trinny lip to cheek ones - too drying to use on lip but nice as a blush.

No 7 lip and cheek tint - received one in a gift set and never looked back (as a blusher, don't like it as a lip tint)

My favourite ever was a MAC cream blusher but unfortunately they discontinued the colour and not seen one I like since. It went on beautifully and provided an extra layer of cover. Lasted ages and was well worth the money.

I use this one. It’s a real cheapie but I’m often complimented on my young complexion (not trying to brag, just saying that’s what you are looking for)

Bobbie Brown ones are good, easy to apply, good range of colours, etc.

These are all so helpful! I'm going to have a look at them all.

I have used lipstick when I was at work without blusher. I was surprised that it looked so good but smudged off very quickly. I mess with my face all day, I am just very fidgety so need something that is going to last.

I might get that Collection one just because at the price it seems silly not to!

Revolution fast base blush stick from Superdrug/Boots. It’s beautiful. I wear it every day in Peach.

Pearl beauty beautiful makeup look it up on Instagram

Glossier Cloud Paint. But if you're not sure, try Barry M Fresh Face cheek tint first. Much cheaper and just as good.

Glossier one is gorgeous. You’ll find bargains on eBay.

Anyone rate the Bobbi brown pot rouge ?

I am so glad I asked!

Glossier cloud paint are good. My absolute favourite is byterry blush/highlighter pen.

I love Fenty cream blush in petal poppin. Looks scarily pink in the pot but blends out lovely

Rare Beauty liquid blush. Such a nice finish and a little goes a long way, so it lasts ages.

My absolute favourite is Chantecaille gel blusher which I use in the colour Lively. It’s not cheap ((£40ish) but I’ve been using the same tube since before lockdown.

I got the dds a couple of the rare beauty liquid ones for Christmas, I’ve tried them both as samples and they were lovely, blendable and pigmented but easy to work with and build up. I prefer a really really light amount of everything if I’m wearing makeup and these were so nice.
