After not being able to find any decent creme blush, they’re suddenly everywhere! Good – I’m glad that brands are realising that some of us hate powder formulas (although I am totally won over by the Cargo Swimmables) and they can be rather unkind on older skin. The Make Up For Ever HD Cream Blush is actually more matte than dewy but not totally flat in appearance. You still get that lovely skin sheen although not as much as with Stila or Revlon (more recent finds).
I reviewed these back in 2014 when MUFE wasn’t easily available in the UK and failed to see what was ‘HD’ about them – I still do actually, but nonetheless, if you like a creme rather than a powder, the Make Up For Ever HD Cream Blush in 225 (peachy pink but more peach) is a good work day product that does the job. But. I’ve just checked the price (at Debenhams). £29. I think that’s a lot – too much really – so I’d have to send you in the direction of Revlon Photoready for £7.99 HERE. Mr BBB picked a Revlon cream blush up for me in the US and I didn’t know they were available here. We have a far more limited selection than in the US.
This is the Revlon Photoready Blush in Pinched which is the one that I’ve found available HERE.
It’s not dissimilar the MUFE cream blush that I’ve swatched but has more of a ‘gel like’ consistency with a little more slip than MUFE.

I am loving a cream bush these days! However £29 is a bit steep, saying that they do last for a long time. I think drugstore alternatives are just as good x
I have been using the MUFE HD cream blush since last year and I love it. It’s small and portable, and it gives you a natural blush, as if you’ve just come out of the gym. It does not accentuate fine line and wrinkles. I think it’s the best cream blush on the market.
I love anything MUFE! I am not good with cream blushes but this shade looks soooo pretty. I want!

Try the Max Factor cream blushes and Bourjois do a really nice one too. These are my 2 favourite ones anyway.
Yes, I recently bought a Max Factor Cream blush and lost it! argh.
This looks gorgeous! And perfect for Spring!
