The Ultimate Guide to Cream Blush: Find the Perfect Formula for Your Skin Type

Cream blush is one of those products that can completely transform your face. It adds warmth and freshness in a way powder blushes don’t always do. Not all cream blush formulas are created the same…some can just sit on top of makeup, some fade and some just look dry. The right one for your skin type can make your makeup look seamless and glowing, and the wrong one can disappear by lunchtime or cling to dry patches. I’m breaking down the best cream blush formulas for every skin type, and how to make each one work perfectly for you.

For Normal Skin: Patrick Ta Major Headlines Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush
If you have normal skin….good for you! You get the best of both worlds when it comes to blush formulas. This one from Patrick Ta is a cult favorite for a reason and quickly became my own favorite! It comes with both a cream and a powder that Patrick Ta suggests layering together for long lasting color, however I prefer using them separately. The cream formula gives that natural, skin like flush that melts into the skin perfectly, while the powder locks it in place without dulling the glow.
