I love makeup, but when the weather is nice I want to spend less time applying it and more time outside with my friends. I've been looking for ways to amend my beauty routine and to make it quick and easy, and cream blushes seem like a good place to start. By dabbing the product onto my cheeks and blending out with my fingers, I can be out the door in five minutes or less.

As I searched for the best formulas, I surveyed customer reviews on the Sephora Beauty Insider Community to find out which blushes I should add to my collection. After trying a bunch of recommendations as well as a few of my own picks, I've determined which nine blushes really do the job.

Each one is creamy, pigmented, and most importantly, an extreme timesaver. Read on to shop one for yourself.

The Wander Beauty On-the-Glow Blush and Illuminator ($42) is a two-in-one product that will allow you to breeze through your morning routine. The moisturizing formula will melt into your cheeks and contains subtle shimmer to your face.

If you're looking for a sheer, low-maintenance hue, try Nars The Multiple ($39). The sticks are formulated with vitamin E and acai oil for a hydrating wash of color across your cheeks. I've heard great things about these sticks for years, but until reading rave reviews of them in the Beauty Insider Community, I never decided to take the plunge. I'm so glad I tried it, because it's now an essential item in my makeup bag.

Beauty lovers that prefer to stick to a clean-makeup routine will become obsessed with the Ilia Multi-Stick ($34). It's formulated with 72 percent organic ingredients and 100 percent natural dye.
