Help me find the perfect pink creme blush.

I love the crème blush in the Too Faced "The Secret to No Makeup Makeup" palette. However, they don't sell that blush individually and I don't want to have to buy the whole palette for just the blush if other options are available. Please help me find a replacement creme blush!

Best way I can describe the color is that it looks like a dusty pink in the tray, but finish appears very rosy on top of Make Up For Ever HD Foundation in 120. It's a matte finish, not luminous or translucent; cool and bluish undertones rather than peachy undertones and not as bright of a pink as the Nars Orgasm powder blush.

I use the Revlon Photoready cream blush in the colour that looks hot pink in the container. I was worried it would be way to bright, but it actually looks great on. Might be worth checking out some swatches online to see whether you like the look of it.

This Makeup Revolution palette seems to have a good match in the bottom row, centre right.

Yves Saint Laurent makes a cream blush that doubles as a matte lip color, the finish as a blush is beautiful. Rose Libre looks like it might be a nice match.

The Nars shade "gaiety" works well for me, and I too love that cream blush. The Nars has a better finish, too, in my opinion.

Bobbi Brown pot rouge? Maybe in Powder Pink?

Best answer: I think you may find a color you like in Tarte's cheek stains. Check them out here.

NARS has a ton of colors of The Multiple that aren't as screaming pink as Orgasm. NARS G-Spot is a deeper dusty rose with no peachy undertones that works for me.

I love Stila's convertible color, maybe one of those will work for you?

Response by poster: Thanks everyone! I went with the Tarte cheek stain in "Blushing Bride."
