Should you be a likeminded victim of dry skin, the cream blush will be a staple in your makeup bag. Powder blushers are simply a no-go. However, it’s not only dry skin sufferers who can benefit from a gorgeous cream blush. Whatever your skin types, a dab of creamy luminosity will utterly transform your look. Within moments, complexions achieve the dreamiest glow (that lasts longer than your morning meeting). So, if you’ve had a great night, no sleep and need to look like you’re with it, grab your cream blush. It works a treat. Here is team L A Beauty’s pick of the best.

What can we say, other than YOU MUST TRY THIS! There’s greatness, and then there’s Glossier greatness. The cream-gel blush is everything you hope for, with a side order of fabulous. We are huge fans of Glossier and their Cloud Paint is simply dreamy. Combining blurring pigments for that much-appreciated soft-focus effect; basically, the Cloud Paint can do no wrong.

MAC Cosmetics never fail to impress, and the Glow Play Blush ensure expectations remain high. The bouncy and buildable formula comes in a super lightweight and velvety texture. It feels like true heaven on your cheeks. Eleven shades and one outrageously beautiful formula. The results are a dreamy glow that achieves ultra-radiance all day long. You will love this!

Available in 10 iconic shades, they provide the ultimate combination of rich pigment and sheer. These blushes ensure a flawlessly gorgeous glow throughout the day.
