If you are getting older in age, like me, sometimes a powder blush does not cut it. I find that many powders only accentuate the lines on my face, especially under and around my eyes. For this reason, I like to turn to creams. The problem with many creams are that I have an awful time finiding one that looks natural when blended out. I have tried so many of them and have just a handful of faves. I am adding this one to the tops of my list: M·A·C Cremeblend Blush.

For every contour control freak, for every persistent perfectionist comes this wondrous way to play with blush that gives you the most magnificent flexibility you’ve ever had…Starts creamy, stays creamy and proves once and for all that powder is NOT your only prerogative. You can get back to a new build for that retro “rouge” look – Old Hollywood Glamour made modern – or stop at subtle and natural; it’s all in your hands. In three aspects, two shades of each: One matched to skin, one for a brighter glow and one darker for cream contouring, it’s perfect for all skin colours, minus the silicone, particularly adept at preventing ashiness on darker complexions. Make powdery a thing of the past.
