I am thinking about getting a cream blush (stick) or should I just stick with powder blush?

What's your skin type? If you're oily a cream blush isn't your best option but if you're dry a cream blush would be a great option (:

My skin type is normal sorry I didn't mention it.

Since you're normal you can really go with either one. I personally think a cream blush gives more of a natural/radiant finish than a powder blush does so I think it depends on what kind of look you're going for (:

I wear both. I use RMS Lip2Cheek creams and they're so small, it's easy to throw one in my purse - no brush! Just apply with my fingers. I use a lot of dewy foundation products (CC creams) and cream blends effortlessly. When I want a more sophisticated look and use a finishing powder, I'll often use a powder blush. If your skin is on the dry side, creams will work well. You can also alternate.

It also depend on your beauty routine, if you use liquid foundation or some cream contour you maybe rather use powder to set your makeup.

I like to use cream blush under foundation- it gives a "lit from within" natural flush. I like Nars Matte Multiples or an oldie but goodie- Stila Convertible Color.

Personally I would go with powder, because I'm not a fan of the dewy finish of cream blushes. But thats just my personal opinion; I guess it would depend on your skin type!
