What is the difference between cream blush and powder blush?
Creme blush is particularly suitable for dry to normal skin and gives a natural, bright finish. It is easy to blend and is ideal for subtle, fresh looks. Powder blush, on the other hand, offers a longer durability, has a matt effect and is particularly suitable for oily skin. It enables a more precise order and is well suited for more intensive make-up looks. The choice between cream and powder depends on the desired finish, the skin type and the individual preferences.
