Perhaps it was Hailey Bieber 's 'Strawberry Girl' effect, a renewed fascination in no make-up make-up, or a move away from overly mattified textures – but cream blush is having an extended moment in the spotlight.
While old school powders might have once monopolised blushers back in the day, they have since been traded in for a modern palette which centres upon a soft-lit finish, nourishing ingredients and next-gen formulas. And they're far from just a mainstay in the peak summer months too – year-round, a cream blush can offer a hydrating finish and instant glow factor.
Whichever blush trend you want to emulate – be it viral boyfriend blush, natural pinched cheeks, Instagram's snatched cheek-bone placement, or the 'cold girl' flush – there's a cream or liquid blush out there for you.
Not all are created equal, though. And, as a minimalist make-up wearer through and through, I take finding the right cream blush very seriously. I've tested countless too oily, too liquid, not dewy enough blushers, and can be particularly hard to please when it comes to the right texture, finish, staying power, not to mention a compelling skincare ingredients list, too.
Only a few - thirteen to be precise - have truly impressed me. From the most innovative finishes to the office staple I can't live without, the best blush can be hard to come by. Below, see my top 13 cream blush and liquid blushes to try this summer.
Fans of Charlotte Tilbury's viral foundation stick will be delighted to hear of a shiny-new blush equivalent. This unique formula has the glow-enhancing benefits of its counterpart (not to mention an impressive ingredients list) but the real USP is a light-mapping technology which delivers a buildable, bespoke and sheer glow.
At a time when skin health reigns supreme, make-up is now brimming with skin-boosting benefits. This new blush butter balm is a prime example; it's packed with squalane and hyaluronic acid to help support the skin barrier and boost hydration, all while providing an instant flush of colour.
