Topshop Cream Blush in Head Over Heels

Afternoon lovelies, finally it's Friday, the weekend is upon us and here is something to put on your shopping list!


I'm still fairly new to cream blush, but after falling in love with Flush, and lusting over Neon Rose, I picked up Head Over Heels.




Head Over Heels is a peachy coral coloured blush which looks quite orange in the pan but leaves a fresh, peachy glow on the skin.


The packaging is the typical Topshop packaging with the scruffy white polka dots, with a mirror in the top. the pan is plenty large enough to use a brush or just apply with your fingers. I love I can throw this in my bag and apply it later if I need to, the case is quite sturdy, and the mirror is an adde bonus!


I love how the cream blushes feel so silky as the glide into the skin, but try to a matte, powdery finish when blended into the skin, plus they last really well on my skin, not highlighting the dryness in my cheeks, but surviving if my face gets slightly oily, as I have a bad habit of touching my face a lot!
Not blended!
I apply this with my Real Techniques stippling brush as it picks up just enough product and I can really blend it in where I want, as well as being able to add more if I need to.


I've been wearing this or the past week as its quite easy to throw on in the morning, applying well over my chosen foundation. For £6, these are really good value for money and I would recommend them for in your collections!


So what do you think, something you use and love, or something that you have wanted to try?


Thanks for reading xx

  1. I have this :) It's such a pretty colour but I'm new to cream blush too and haven't really got the hang of applying it yet. I will keep trying though, I find the mirror handy to have in my bag too! xx

    1. If you have the Real Techniques Stippling Brush, use them together and you only need a bit of product but then blend it in! find this the easiest method x

  3. I love this one, it lives in my handbag and looks great with a powder blush over the top, like an irridescent MSF from mac or similar!
