Mac BlushCreme?

[Indian Barbie]

Anybody use these? I always see them highly rated in magazines, any suggestions for NC45 skin? xx

I love Blushcreme's!
For days when I want a nice dewey look with out a powder/shimmer these come in so handy.

I think Brit Wit would look awesome with your skintone

 

[trollydolly]

posey is gorgeous as well

 

[glam8babe]

would it slide off my face or make my face look 'wet' ? or should i just stick to powder blush

I own :
posey : rosy pinky color
uncommon : biege pinkish color (use as light contour )
lady blush: cool pink
lilicent : warm peachy/pink color

high light: pearl cream color base

I started out with MAC Blossoming (coral colour) as my first cream blush, but didn't like it that much. It had annoying sparkles in it and it looked and felt so gunky and thick.

Then I recently bought the Bobbi Brown cream blush, the Pot Rouge in Raspberry Pink and I liked it a lot more. So if you can afford to spend a bit more than MAC, I'd get the BB ones.

I prefer the colours without any shimmer, for example Pleasureful and Ladyblush.

I only have one of these and I love it I have to get more, I have Sweet William and it is such a gorgeous color.

My skin is quite oily too and the blush cream stays on for ages

I highly recommened these

i agree i hav MAC Lilicent and BB pot rouge in Pink Raspberry.IMO BB has a better texture and finish.I would suggest BB over MAC

Bobbi Brown's pot rouges are far superior to MAC in color, texture and don't break out those with oilier skin OR make them look greasy.

I have Milk Chocolate (great for bronzing and contouring), Stonewashed Pink and Blushed Rose, they look GREAT and incredibly natural. Apply them with your fingers or the 188 Skunk Brush for that "natural" glow from within. Without powder, Pot Rouges leave a satin like glow to your skin and you can use them on your lips as well (just make sure you use some balm because it can be quite drying)

Can someone tell me more about these? They look so tempting. Are the Bobbi Brown ones better? Which colors would you recommend? I am NC30. Thanks in advance!!!!!

^never tried BB, but I have stila convertible colors which I prefer to MAC blushcremes.

 

[Mabelle]

I have 2 of MAC's and hardly ever use them. The colours are nice but i hate the feeling (thick and kinda sticky).
Stila's are AMAZING! I have poppy and another colour (forget which) They don't feel thick, gunky or sticky. They are super easy to apply, layer and blen without looking like an assclown.

I have Posey, it's FANTASTIC! Use a tiny amount, IMO the 188 brush is great for applying and blending the color out (I'm NC 40). And I seal it with Refined Golden bronzer, the color is gorgeous and looks like a natural flush...too cute!!

 

[jazmatazz]

I have Pleasureful. I initially purchased it because my powder blush wasn't lasting all day. I got this to wear the blushcreme first and then layer powder blush over it, it works. I really only use it for special occasions since I'm not into cream products so much. Pleasureful is a nice color, but I think it's been discontinued.

Using a brush to apply (stipple, then lightly blen) works great!

I heard that they go on really smooth and nice, and are great bases for powdered blushes. The only thing that's holding me personally back from trying them is the fact that I've got oily skin. So...if you have oily skin, this might not be a great idea.
