Best blush for acne-prone skin?

I recently broke out a lot on my cheeks and forehead. Although I don't wear makeup too often, I sometimes wear some blushes. I've heard that cream blush is better than powder blush but I'm a bit skeptical since my skin does get oily throughout the day. I'm looking for a blush that is safe for sensitive and acne-prone skin. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks 🙂

I gave super super sensitive acne prone skin (oily too) and the tarte Amazonian clay blushes haven’t broken me out☺️I am going to branch out and try the gen nude blush soon just because I wanted to try a peachy color. Tarte’s blushing bride blush (pink) is my every day holy grail!

Beautycounter is AMAZING. Wish Sephora carried it. Check out their Color Pinch Cream Blusher in Hibiscus - so flattering on all skintones!

RE: Best blush for acne-prone skin?

I’m the exact same way! I have oily skin and large pores especially on my cheeks and t-zone. One thing that helped me was having to be religious about cleaning my blush brush. Let’s just say I never did it... I’m sure you are though! I haven’t had much issues with NARS or Mac and just stick with those two brands. I tried the cream and liquid blushes and it made me really break out with deep acne. So maybe don’t put yourself through that!

I don't think I've had too many blushes that have broken me out. My favorites are Nars and Urban Decay (the UD blushes are on sale half price this week at Ulta too).
