Believe it or not I don't own many cream blushers (masses of powder blushers mind but not many creams!). This is my MUA Blush Perfection Cream Blusher in Scrummy - it's one I've been enjoying for a good few months now...
I went for Scrummy because it looked like a really wearable shade - not too light, not too dark etc. For me it works best over a BB or light foundation and I don't try to mattify as it gives a natural, dewy flush which is what I'm after with a cream blush so I don't see the point! I just pat a little over the old apples with my fingers (I like using fingers with cream blush) but you could blend with a brush if that's your thang. It's quick and easy to use so ideal if you just want to add a bit of colour and not faff around too much or look too made-up but you can build it up for a more intense flush. I don't find it drying, nor is it greasy or slippery and it lasts really well - for a good few hours, if not longer, just over a BB. You don't need to use much as it's quite well pigmented so it's easy to build up a little pop - I envisage Scrummy will be a great Summertime staple and ideal for holiday!

I've only gone for a 'little pop' on the kite here - (every time I tried to type 'pop' it came out 'poop' - what is wrong with me!) ...
MUA Cream Blushers are a mere £2.00 so if you get on with them you can't go wrong. I'm definitely after another shade - it's just that every time I visit Superdrug they're pretty much sold out!
Have you tried any of the MUA Blushes? What's your favourite cream blush?
