Recommend me a cream blush

I have dry skin so powder blush looks shite. And I am not quick enough for liquid (look like I am doing an Adam Ant impersonation) so cream blusher it is. Currently nearly at the bottom of a pot of Lancome. Any other recommendations? If it helps, I am extremely pale and look like I've been recently unearthed without blusher - I wear it every day

i have the clinique blushwear cream stick and its lasted well over a year. Will buy again. It blends really nicely, says its cream to powder.

I find the Maybeline Mousse to be good.

TerryWogansTrousers · 24/04/2010 16:37

Have you already got some benetint, as it sounds that way from your post? If so, try mixing it with moisuriser- it goes on a bit better if you're not the best at applying it.

I loathe maybelline mousse - it goes in little piles all over my face.

I am also very pale, and alwasy use cream blush as powder is so ageing. I found that the best texture blushers are either Tesco Make up or Boots natural Collection. They are both cheap so well worth a go.

Highly recommend.

LowLevelWhinging · 24/04/2010 20:05

LadyBiscuit · 24/04/2010 20:59

I haven't got any benetint because I've tried it and I'm crap at it.

ROFL at Ladygarden - I think that's got to be the one for me

Just bought a new Clarins one - I absolutely love it.

aprildays · 24/04/2010 21:23

I love Orgins - Pinch your check - a little goes a long way

lairymum99 · 25/04/2010 12:48

Re Benetint - they also do a Benetint lip balm (in a sweet little glass pot) which I use on my cheeks as well. Bit like vaseline with a lovely rosy colour. Try it in the shop and see if it works for you.

VigourMortis · 25/04/2010 14:03

Ruby and Millie do a push up gel stick that is good in the tan colour (the others are a bit vivid).

Also, Pixi do an amazing cheek gel, impossible to get wrong (I love origins pinch your cheek too but once did a terrible with it...)

PlumSykes · 25/04/2010 15:56

I use the MAC Ladygarden too . Is a great flushed-rosy-cheeks shade.

Barbabelle · 25/04/2010 16:21

This one blends really well and smells of chocolate. I've got it in Charisma which is a good rosy colour.

Sparkletastic · 25/04/2010 16:24

Bobbi Brown Coral blush / lip cream is fabulous.

Another vote for mac ladyblush - I'm so pale I need to use blusher every day or people think I'm ill!!

The pot has lasted me over a year.
