A You Tuber I follow (Stephanie Marie) was raving about this recent Essence blush launch.   It's Essence Baby Got Blush liquid blush.

Lightweight, buildable, with a sponge applicator.  She raved that it goes well over liquid, cream, or powder foundation.  Easy to blend and long lasting.  She had nothing bad to say about it.

 

She likes to dab it on the back of her hand and apply with a brush.  Amazon had 4 colors available.  Maybe worth checking out if you're looking for a nice inexpensive blush.

By the way, Stephanie is 49 yrs old and was not paid by Essence or Amazon for her review.

My experience with liquid/cream blush is it shows every pore you have unless you have perfect baby complextion.

I have not heard of Stephanie Marie, but I just did a quick search for her on YT.  Does she cater to 40+ women?  Also, does she use both higher & lower end products?  I subscribed to her so I can check her out.

I find myself watching YT over QVC these days for beauty an am enjoying it a lot.

@SurferWife  - I've been watching Stephanie Marie for a few years now.  She does show both high end and drugstore.  I think she's honest in her presentations and think you will enjoy watching her.

[San Antonio Gal]

I think you'll enjoy Stephanie @SurferWife .  She does indeed cater to the over 40 group - and reviews high end and drug store makeup/skincare.

You may also enjoy Risa Does Makeup.  She's 50 plus and does the same type.

Thank you both @San Antonio Gal & @JudyL!  I'll subscribe to Risa Does Make-up.

Essence can be purchased at Ulta, Target, Walmart, CVS, Amazon, etc.

One of their stand out products is their Lash Princess mascara, which has been mentioned many times on this forum.
