Try the Miessence Blushers, they are 100% certified organic to food standards, so they are good for you as opposed to all ther other makeup ranges which are highly toxic.
Miessence blusher react with the oil in your skin and you can just keep on dusting a small amount until you are happy with the colour.If you want the website details, drop me a line and i will forward it on to you

I have olive skin too and pink blusher looks great! I don't find that mine fades away, maybe it's the brand you're using as opposed to the colour of the blush being an issue?
Another tip is to sweep some powder over your face after you have applied it because it 'sets' it or something (I don't know, it just looks good anyway!)

Your blusher is probably very greasy and does not hold to your skin. Get one from MAC or Physician Formula. These are the best in lasting on the face for a long time.

I have olive skin too.
I don't use make-up now, but back in the day ;) I used to put on my foundation (skipped that in summer) and then a cream blusher and then top that off with a powdered one.
That seemed to do the trick.
Good luck.

I don't know why people think that blush is suppose to be this bright red color. I am African American and I actually have naturally blushed cheeks but when I want to enhance my look, after applying a sheer layer of Studio Fix by Mac, I like to kick it up with a nice orange colored blush also made by Mac. Mac is affordable and it's good quality. It will last for hours it not the entire day. You might want to check into using some type of oil-removal cleanser. I think the problem is your natural oils in your skin may also be the cause of your make-up only lasting temporarily..... Look into it.

A liquid cheek tint will do the trick. It stays on longer (even 24 hours) and its doesn't fade even if you sweat. Plus, it looks more natural even if you don't powder.
Try The Body Shop Lip & Cheek Stain. I've been using it for 2 years now..... and it's doin wonders!

try a stronger one.
Maybelline New york does a dream mousse blusher. I love it! Try that.

Try using a darker shade with hints of red in it. Apply it like normal, and see what happens. You are probably using a blush that is too similar to your skin color.

Use plum-coloured blusher

yeah i don't really bother with blush for that reason. I use a light foundation liquid and then a powder foundation. if you don't spread it on thick your natural glow shows through and looks alot better then rouge anyway. Or you can use a shimmer gold to highlight your cheekbones. that's always fun. hope i helped!
