Makeup artist Shannon Irene says her favorite cream blush is Charlotte Tilbury's Pretty Youth Glow Filter, which comes in a pink duo and a coral duo.
"The creme texture is smooth and leaves a beautiful finish on the skin. It works really well on various skin tones and is a go to in my kit. The palette also can double as a lip color and even eyeshadow on the go," she says. "The coral is amazing for summer because it gives the cheek a bright pop of color!"
He may be partial, but another one of Santino's preferred cream blushes is the Gabriel multi-pot, which comes in five different shades. He says, "The blendable and buildable formula glides on effortlessly over your skin for a sun-kissed look, and I love that the blushes are non-toxic, gluten-free, and vegan."
They can also be used on your eyes and lips for some easy multi-tasking.
The Kjaer Weis Cream Blush is another one of those products that gets a lot of makeup artist love across the board.
"It's definitely a splurge, but it blends beautifully, and I love their sleek packaging," says Santino. "The buildable formula allows you to control the color intensity from sheer to bold, and it blends into your skin beautifully."
Tevlin adds, "It's the perfect cream blush for those with drier skin or anyone looking for a blush that applies like butter. Not only is this the perfect shade of pink, but the ingredients offer excellent skin health benefits from the castor seed oil to the jojoba and fruit extracts."
"This sandy rose cream blush is out of this world. It has just enough grey to add depth and dimension as a contour yet gives fair to medium skin a healthy tawny tone," says Bartlett. "It melts into skin and can be worn on the eyes, lips and cheeks."
She says it's the perfect complement to a red lip and, as a nice bonus, it's cruelty free.
