Cream Blushes

In my ridiculous makeup collection, this is an item I only have one of. Specifically, it is a NYX Cream Blush that I apparently am not so skilled at using correctly.

So two questions:
1. Do you have any cream blush recommendations for me? (Pale skin, warm undertone)
2. What is your favorite/preferred method of applying it?

1.) Mac and Nars cream blushes. I recommend soft pink or peach colors (sorry forgot the names) but check it out in person.

2.) Apply it with your fingers, use a kabuki brush (light strokes) to blend it out.

I am in lOVE with MAC cream blushes

I use my beauty blender and fake beauty blender sponge to apply, just dab it in the cream and pat it on like that

I love MUFE's HD cream blush. Most cream blushes have too much sparkle in them for me but their line of colors holds a beautiful true flush. I'm so glad I switched from power to cream =) potent hues, hydrating and lasting. It is extremely concentrated, though, so go easy on the pump.

I use lipsticks as cream blush.

Revlon photo ready cream blush in 'pinched', subtle coral pink. Very flattering colour especially for your skin tone 😊

I also like to apply it with the sigma round top synthetic kabuki!

I use my fingers to apply cream blushes or a stippling brush and I've only tried NYX but I love the color Boho Chic

Illamasqua cream blushes are my favourite blush products period. Dixie is a beautiful coral shade and sob is a very flattering baby pink. I generally apply cream blush with a duo fibre stippling blush but fingers are fine too. Just always make sure to apply BEFORE powdering :)

Josie Maran argan oil cheek stick!! It blends amazingly easy. No muss no fuss. Plus healthy for your skin :)

If you have access to a Mary Kay representative, sheer bliss is the perfect cream blush, especially since we have the same skintone. I know this is a bit taboo, but I love to apply blushes with a stippling brush. With a cream, though, I only do this if i want a more bold coverage. Generally, I just use my fingers 'cause I'm in a hurry.
