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?

Topshop Cream Blush in Flush

 

Afternoon lovelies, hope your well, the weekend is so close!!

Before I started watching YouTube videos and reading blogs, I never even knew that blushers could come in cream form, and I've always been too scared to try them, fearing I'd look more Pikachu then Posen.

So I've quietly stood back and admired from a far, as I didn't want to spend my money on something I would use once and then never use again. But I finally bit the bullet in January and bought this blush from Topshop for the princely sum of £6! Bargain!

Armed with my trusty Real Techniquea stippling brush, I have used this every day for 2 weeks and I am now a convert.

Flush is a gorgeous bright pink shade which looks quite scary in the pot but a lot less bright when blended into the skin. 

It blends really well into the skin, leaving a gorgeous dewy finish that lasts really well over the course of a hectic day at school. It can be blended in with a brush or your fingers, along the cheeck bones or on the apples of the cheeks for a 'just been out in the snow' glow!

 

As if the product wasnt gorgeous enough, the packaging is really cute and sturdy, with a great sized mirror. Even the box is gorgeous with the white sketch of the packaging on the black box! 




 I feel I need more cream blush in my life now, and once my spending ban is up then I will be stocking up on the other two colours that Topshop do!

Have you tried any of the cream blushes? How about any other products from Topshop! I feel the need for some more virtual hauling!
