This blush is a cult classic and is arguably the best-selling blush around. Formulated with super fine micronised powder pigments, it is highly blendable and buildable, giving you as much or as little natural-looking colour as you want. 

Available in three finishes - matte, satin and shimmer - and 27 shades, there’s a shade to suit almost every skin tone! You have everything from bold and beautiful colours to a soft and natural glow. 

Designed to give you a youthful “love glow”, this blush contains not just one, but two shades in each compact. Each shade offers high colour payout and a creamy texture that will give your skin a radiant finish, thanks to the crushed pearls used in this formulation. 

This blush is super easy to apply and can be applied in your bathroom mirror or on the go in the back of a taxi. The Cheek to Chic Blusher suits most skin types and is sure to perk up your complexion with just a quick swish of your brush!

As you might expect from this trusted makeup brand, the MAC powder blush offers a quality product that gives fantastic colour payout. Apply with a brush or fingers to easily achieve a natural healthy glow that keeps on keeping on, all day long. 

This blusher comes in a sheer matte finish that suits most skin types and it comes in 20 different shades, which is something for every skin tone and any occassion from a natural day-time glow to a bright pop of colour for a night on the town. 

This gorgeous, sheer, lightweight blusher is super buildable, allowing you to add as much or as little as you like to develop a completely customised look without weighing down your skin. It is long-lasting, thanks to the silicone, oil-free formula, but doesn’t clog pores. 

It comes in a range of colours to suit multiple skin tones and it is also suitable for any skin type. If you're looking for a natural makeup, no makeup look and a youthful and radiant glow, this could be the one for you. 

This clever little stick is both blusher and lip tint in one, offering high-impact, buildable colour. Containing mango butter, peach nectar and avocado oil, the Lip & Cheek Stick is super hydrating and gives you gorgeous, sheer colour for a dewy, soft-focus finish. 

Perfect for anyone with dry or mature skin, this blusher protects and hydrates. It's also easy to apply either with a brush or just your fingers, perfect for those who have to apply their makeup on the go. 

These palettes each feature eight highly-pigmented blushers. Each shade can be used both by itself or it can be mixed with the other colours to create your own unique effects and shades, giving this product a lot of versatility. 

With shades to suit a wide range of skin tones, there are six palette combinations available, making this palette incredibly affordable! Some shades can also be used for contouring as well as a blush. However, the big palette will be a little bulky for taking on the go.

Offering a natural flushed look through the power of mineral pearl complex, which gives a soft-focus effect while brightening the skin, this blusher is suitable for all but the driest of skins. 

Offering buildable coverage and 12 gorgeous shades, it contains no parabens or phthalates and is cruelty-free. However, it is very sheer and can be difficult to build up colour if you prefer a very vibrant look.

A brand created by Millie Bobby Brown (hey Stranger Things fans), that offers a gorgeous healthy glow across a range of skin tones with its sheer, buildable finish. Designed to be easy to apply this blusher applies like a cream but dries down as a powder finish.

Although you can use this blush to build up the colour coverage that you want from sheer to lovely rosy cheeks, if you accidentally apply too much, you might end up spending a lot of time blending it out. While it contains Candelilla wax that locks in moisture, we would recommend this product for the oilier folk as it contains Kaolin clay and dries to a powder.

This shimmery, ballerina-pink blusher offers instant radiance and buildable colour in one handy package. Best suited to pale to medium skin tones, this product comes with a soft brush included. 

This is probably not the best blush for those with dry or mature skin as powder blushers can further dry out these skin types. The lack of shades available also bumps it down to the lower end of our ranking.

This highly-pigmented blush has a silky, lightweight formulation that gives a high-definition radiance to your skin. It is easy to blend and delivers a healthy colour to your cheeks, helping you give a nice pop of colour to your complexion.

Although it is easy to apply and to wear, it doesn’t last as long as some of the other blushers. However, it does come in 12 shades, so it's quite possible to find something for everyone, whether it be a subtle hint or a bright pop of colour.
