My Make-Up Collection: Blushers

/ 6 Comments

Hey Sweeties,

A few weeks ago I started a new mini blog series with the intention of taking you through my make-up collection, starting with my foundations (here). Today I thought I would share with you my collection of blushers which, let it be known, are my weakness of all make-up products. I can’t put a definite reason for this but I always feel there is room for a new one, whereas things like eye make-up, you do reach a point where you get every look covered. With blush, I love the application; it’s effortless and girlie and can really compliment complexion.

Autograph Pure Luxe Multi-Blusher Review

Autograph Blusher

Hey Sweeties,

I have been quite excited to get this Autograph blusher reviewed for you guys as for me it was a bit of a random discovery if you’ll remember from my recent beauty haul (here). Unfortuntely though, it hasn’t quite lived up to expectation. But let’s start with the positives…

I hate the use of the word ‘cute’ unless it’s used to refer to babies and small animals, but this product as a whole is quite cute; it’s small and pretty. To look at it also appears quite luxurious and to the touch it feels light and swatches well. I love the flower embossing but to be fair, that’s probably the only thing really going for it which is a real shame.

Although on my finger the product appears well pigmented and has this lovely shimmer to it, as a blush, it does not work. The product just does not show up like I would want a blush to do so and I don’t think I can argue that it’s my skin tone, I think you would have to be darker toned for this product to show. However, I would put forward the suggestion that it would make an ok-ish highlight, still not perfect but it might be the only way to salvage this?

As you can see on my cheek it’s just not there but (I hope) you can see where I have used it to highlight? In the photo (above) I am wearing a BB cream…

…and here I am wearing my normal, medium coverage foundation (L’Oreal True Match). Still not amazing but you know, making the best of a situation eh?!

I think the issue here is that it costs £12.50 which for a product that doesn’t do what it says it does is far too much… and I wouldn’t spend this much on a highlighter if I am honest. If the product cost a couple of quid then this would be a totally different story.

Shame.

 

Until next time x
