Default For those who have trouble with blush staying on

Hello brides!
I just wanted to get a consensus on those who can't seem to keep blush on. I have in the past raved about Tarte's cheekstains, however I just used them on a photo shoot yesterday and they didn't budge even with sweating and reapplying makeup for different looks. The model even remarked that she has a hard time with blush staying on. So it led me to think about how many of you have a hard time keeping blush on.
Do you find powder blush, or cream/stains fade on you?
Does it completely dissapear or does it separeate and get blotchy?
Would you say you have dry or oily skin?
I would love to hear all about it, this way I can suggest options for brides with simialr situatios. Thank you!

I can't wear blush at all. Everything seems to make my skin look dry even if it's not, so I guess it makes me look blotchy. It also seems to highlight any tiny lines I have around my eyes. I haven't tried any stains so maybe I'll give that a shot.

I have combination skin. My cheeks are pretty dry though.
I use the blush by Lancome that comes in little travel sheets (looks like the oil blotting sheets but has the blush on it)

I've noticed that the blush wears off after a couple of hours. The only way I can make it last a little longer is if I pack on the blush a little more than usual. Thats the only way, which I end up looking like i have too much blush, but hey, it looks normal by the end of the day.

I have never tried the stains

Hmmm so it's the combination-dry ladies who get the blotchys...very interesting. Thank you so much for your input
