Even though I own more powder blushes, I like cream blushes more just because they last longer and to me, they have a better finished look. (if that makes any sense).

i love powder blushes, ive tried a couple low & high end cream blushes and hated them. cheek stains i never use either because they take too long to get off.. i stick with powder! but thats just for me

I am use to Power but after purchasing my Stila Travel palettes that contains the Cream Blush, I am in love, it gives me more of a natural flush and stays on all day

I am SUCH a fan of cream blushes! I have normal/combo skin, so they give my dry cheeks the moisture and glow that I get normally on my T-Zone :) If I'm having an especially oily day, I'll use the only powder blushes I own— Shu Uemura Glow Ons! These are seriously the holy grail of powder blush, incredibly silky and finish gorgeously on the skin

I like powder blushes best. I just find them easier to work with.

Both! I love both seperately. I love using them together! Just both. Can't choose.

I use both, i have a lot more powder blushes though. cream blushes tend to look more natural but i actually think the powder ones last longer, well on me at least. Rock and Republic makes some really great blushes, verry pigmented and long lasting!

Powder for sure. I don't like to put my fingers in makeup, I personally think it's unsanitary. The vision of Stila's old skool blusher pots... product getting under my fingernails.... gross.

I have both but always reach for the powder ones! I think they are just easier! 

As my skin ages I've been leaning more towards cream blushes. I typically don't use a blush to begin with but when I do use it it's cream.

I use powder blush on the apple of my cheeks and apply a little bit of liquid bronzer on my cheekbones.

Cream blush! It just looks so natural! :)

I prefer powder. And if I do use a cream blush I set it with a powder blush : )

i prefer powder blushes, i have really oily skin so when i use a cream blush it just rubs off in under an hour. However, if i do choose to use one of my cream blushes I set it with a powder blush close to that colour so it locks in the product.

Powder! I have extremely oily skin, prone to breakouts so cream blushes just look cakey on my skin after a while.

Cream blushes all the way. I have dry skin and they just look way more natural on me then powder blushes. Plus it lasts a lot longer.

I love powdered blushes but to be quite honest I have never tried cream blushes before! =( Hmm this thread has inspired me to give them a try!

I only have one cream blush but I love it. It just looks super natural and a little goes a long way. However, I also have several powder blushes and I love all of them.

I've never really tried the creams... I am obsessed with powder blushes though!!

Winter time I prefer Cream because my skin tends to be dry and cream formula is better for that. But powder for the rest of the year

During the cooler months I prefer a cream blush and then for summer I usually go for powder simply because of my oily skin.

A cheek tint! :) I LOVE my Mark Just Pinched Instant Blush Tint in Berry! <3 It looks so natural and it doubles up as a lip tint!

Powder. I'm not good at blending cream blush in. 

I luv both, but on dry skin I will go for cram.
I use powder over foundation(when I haven't set the foundation with loose powder yet) so it looks more natural.
In some cases I will use powder over cream if I see that the cream is not as what I was expecting the color to be.

one last thing I use lipstick as cream too, two birds one stone :)
