Silky flawless blushers?

Can anyone recommend their favourite blushers? How does everyone get theirs to looks so silky and flawless? Mine always look patchy or wear off quickly. I use powder and cream, sometimes together sometimes alone. What are your favourites that have that silky look?

Not sure what you mean by silly but something with lustre stops it looking powdery... I like Nars Orgasm liquid blush and Rare Beauty blushes (liquid). Dot on and blend with a blush. Use a fixing spray to help it stay.

Oh sorry, I keep seeing people with this lovely flawless blusher, like very airbrushed and even looking. Whereas mine never looks even so just wondering if certain brands etc gave that look. Maybe it's just the application I mean?

I just mentioned this on a previous thread, but the Milk Jelly blush sticks will not budge once on, all my makeup melts away except this blush. It's amazing.

I'd love to know how people get all their makeup to look flawless and airbrushed, no matter what I used or how carefully I apply mine, I never seem to look quite "right"

Mine is a Dior one, shade Hologlam. Daniel Sandler watercolour blush when it dries is silky.

I love the channel cream blush pots - goes on perfectly, really silky, buildable and long lasting.

Surratt, blend beautifully. Just keep in mind online images are always edited and digital phone cameras correct things automatically to a certain extent. A good clean brush is also not to be discounted, natural hair brushes, especially Japanese ones do a great job with little effort.

I think the Pixi blush sticks are brilliant.

I recently bought an Hourglass palette which has a few blushers in (you can buy individual ones), they melt into my skin and last all day.

I used NARS and MAC powder blushes before, which are nice but don’t have the same effect

Thanks all, these all look lovely, and a few on sale.
