Fenty Beauty Cheek Out Freestyle Cream Blush

 Put your best cheek forward with Fenty Beauty’s Cheeks Out Freestyle Cream Blush.

This little pot of pure joy features the most beautiful formula, allowing you to create a natural looking fresh-faced flush in seconds.

 

Available in 10 stunning shades to suit all skin tones, the luxurious, lightweight texture literally melts onto your skin, creating a second skin look and feel.

I tested out the blush in shade in Bikini Martini, a soft yet vibrant bubblegum pink.

Housed within a cute, compact octagonal compact complete with mini mirror for on-the-go touch ups, the blush looks a little frighteningly bright in the pan.

Fear not though because it offers an exquisitely soft, sheer finish far lighter in hue than the compact would have you believe.

Love the boldness and brightness then that’s fine too because the silky formula is totally buildable too.

The weightless, sweat and water resistant formula glides over your skin without any hint of stickiness or greasiness, blending like a dream without disturbing or interfering with your foundation.

The result is a natural looking flush of colour that will leave you forgetting that you’re even wearing makeup.

Fenty Beauty's Cheek Out Freestyle Cream Blush are available now in 10 shades from Boots and cost £21 each.

KVD Beauty Everlasting Blush

 I think I may have just found my new all-time favourite blush.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate how breathtakingly stunning this KVD Beauty Everlasting Blush is.

Blush is blush, but ‘cmon, just look at this absolute beauty!

Boasting an award winning formula, this one-of-a-kind blush compact has been inspired by the high pigment, soft matte finish and long lasting durability of their Everlasting Liquid Lipstick.

 

It directly reflects the lipstick’s rose designed cap also, with the exquisite compact featuring beautiful black petals of a rose in bloom, with the blush sitting elegantly at the centre of the flower.

Available in six stunning, flattering shades, I got my mitts on Rosebud, a romantic dusty mauve-pink.

 

The blush itself is luxurious and silky in texture thanks to its micromilled formula, allowing it to blend seamlessly into your skin and features plant derived skin conditioners to leave your complexion feeling wonderfully soft to touch and never cakey.

Lightweight and velvety like the touch of a rose petal, this blush delivers some seriously long lasting wear and is transfer resistant, so once on your face, that’s where it’ll stay all day long.

Offering a natural, soft-matte finish, it breathes life back onto your complexion without hiding your natural beauty.

Thanks to its highly pigmented nature, a little goes a long way with this blush and its buildability allows you to opt for a subtle sweep of colour or a more intense pop of colour depending on your mood or desired look.

 

In a consumer study on 32 volunteers over 24 hours, 100% of users agreed it applied smoothly & seamlessly,  100% of users agreed it had a soft, velvety texture and 100% of users felt it was easy to apply.

Strong results indeed which I completely concur with!

 

You can experience the KVD Beauty Everlasting Blush for yourselves now from Boots where each blush costs £22.

Pixi On-the-Glow Blush

 Its never been easier to brighten your complexion thanks to those genius’ at Pixi Beauty.

Their gorgeous new collection of On-the-Glow Blushers create a soft, natural looking flush for your cheeks and can also be used on your lips as a subtle, matching lip tint.

 

 

Housed inside a sleek, chic tube, this blush is not like many others you may have seen or own.

This is a solid lip and cheek tint which can be applied directly onto your skin without the need for a brush.

The compact, rectangular shape of the blush allows for simple and precise application onto your skin, while its silky, soft, creamy texture glides effortlessly across your cheeks and lips.

You get a lot of product for your buck here and I love the cute, handbag friendly size for on-the-go touch ups throughout the day.

 

Available in three stunning shades, you’ve got ‘Juicy’, a warm, peachy-coral shade, ‘Fleur’, a soft powdery, petal pink and ‘Ruby’, a rich yet soft, warm pinky red.

Perfect for all complexions, the blushers don’t just look beautiful on your skin.

Bridging the gap between makeup and skincare, Pixi have infused the blush with vitamins for their antioxidant benefits, Ginseng to revitalise and balance, Aloe Vera to soothe and calm and Fruit Extracts to nourish and renew.

Comforting and hydrating yet exceptionally lightweight, this creamy blusher blends seamlessly onto your skin, creating a flawlessly diffused finish.

Because of its cream texture there’s no cracking, creasing or mattifying effect on the skin.

Skin is left looking radiant and bright and feeling soft, comforted and nourished all day long.

 

Offering a one sweep colour pay off, to apply the blush simply twist the base of the stick to wind up or wind down.

Gently sweep the blush across your skin before blending with your fingertips et voila, you’re now sporting a delicate, elegant flush that breathes life into your complexion.

 

As an oily skinned girl, I tend to stay away from cream products as I find that they can melt, transfer and clog my pores, adding to an even oilier, greasy looking complexion.

Not so here.

The formula is so light and demi-sheer that it doesn’t even feel like you’re wearing makeup and I’ve really found that (especially during these warmer, summer days) that  I’m enjoying the luminosity this type of blush brings in contrast from the flatness of some powder blushers.

Best still is the ability to match my lips to my cheeks!

If like me you can be a bit lazy when it comes to putting a look together, the ability to perfectly match your lips to your cheeks is a godsend!

I didn’t think I’d say this, but I think that Pixi have converted me to cream blushers, well, these ones at least!

Pixi’s On-the-Go Blush are available now and cost £18 each.

Iconic London Sheer Blush

 Perk up a tired, dull complexion and create a radiant, healthy glow with a pop of colour thanks to Iconic London’s Sheer Blush collection.

This liquid blush creates a beautiful soft-focus colour for both your cheeks and lips, creating an instant, natural looking glow.

 

 

100% Vegan and Cruelty Free, they are available in a selection of six wearable shades to compliment and enhance your complexion.

Formulated with a plant extract known for its anti-pollution benefits, the water-rich Sheer Blush melts into your skin, giving cheeks and lips a veil of soft-focus colour.

Contained within a chic, sleek rose gold coloured tube, the gel to watercolour formula allows you to effortlessly blend and build the colour resulting in your own customised hue depending on your desired look.

 

 

The collection of shades ranges from soft, sultry and natural to vibrant and bold and can be combined to create you very own bespoke shade.

First up there’s Rose Riot, a pretty, pale pastel pink followed by Cheeky Coral, a soft, creamy coral pink.

Power Pink offers a punch of vivid mid pink colour while Fresh Faced creates a warm, fawn pink.

 

 

Finally, Fearless Flush is a beautiful, autumnal warm berry pink and Berry Boom offers a deep, cocoa berry hue.

I tested out three of the shades, Power Pink, Cheeky Coral and Fresh Faced and was really impressed by the results.

 

 

 The blush itself is wonderfully lightweight yet contains true pigment power.

It is silky soft in texture and melts into your skin, imparting a delicate hint of colour.

You can then apply a little more to build your look until you’ve reached your desired shade and it also works a treat on lips.

 

 

Its nourishing qualities ensure that your cheeks and lips are left feeling comfortable and hydrated, resulting in a natural, soft look.

You’ll find no cakeiness or creasing and just the right amount of matte to ensure you look as natural as possible.

I’m a big fan of multi-use products and enjoy matching my cheeks to my lips as I feel it helps to bring a look together and this blush certainly allows this.

 

 

Priced at £18 each you’ll want to collect them all!

Iconic London’s Sheer Blush collection is available now.

Clarins Cheeky Cheeky Bam Bam Autumn Make-Up Collection

While the summer holidays may be upon us its also that time of year where brand’s get ready to release their autumn collections and I’ve fallen completely in love with the beautiful Clarins Cheeky Cheeky Bam Bam Autumn Make-Up 2019 collection.

Comprising of 8 new blushers and 4 gorgeous lip perfectors, the collection is all about playing with colour.

Having said that, I’m delighted to see a departure from vivid, super bright and somewhat intimidatingly scary shades and a reprise of classic, timeless hues designed to delight and create romantic, dreamy looks.

The eight new shades of Joli Blush (£27 each) are the first Clarins blusher to be enriched with plant oils and feature ultra-pigmented, long wearing formulas that highlight your cheeks in one simple sweep.

Its featherlight, powder soft texture allows your skin to breathe, letting your inner radiance shine through while Hazelnut oil nourishes and comforts your skin.

Meanwhile, the iconic Clarins Anti-Pollution Complex helps to protect your skin from the harmful effects of the environment, looking after your skins wellbeing while imparting its beautiful shade.

Housed within a pretty pink and silver, feminine, pocked sized compact complete with a mirror and synthetic hair brush it is perfect for on-the-go applications and top ups throughout the day.

I love the super soft brush which effortlessly applies the silky soft powder to your cheeks, leaving behind a soft, subtle pop of colour which you can build to meet your desired colour.

The powder itself also features a decadent, soft and beautifully delicate scent which just screams luxury!

I adore the blush in shade 02 Cheeky Pink as it is the perfect shade for creating a natural blush and allows you to gi bolder with your lip colour or alternatively match it with one of the new Natural Lip Perfectors.

Priced at £18.50 each, Clarins’ iconic Natural Lip Perfectors have been updated in four new creamy, intense shades packaged in a gorgeous limited edition golden, geometric pattern.

Available in 4 shades from a soft, light pink to intense garnet these lovelies are enriched with shea and mango butter to moisturise and protect your lips while imparting a bold sweep of comfortable, wearable colour.

Simply squeeze the tube gently to release the lipgloss/balm/oil hybrid onto the silky soft cushion applicator. Designed to hug your lips contours the applicator tip allows for precise, quick application, gliding the formula across your lips with ease.

Lighter than a gloss and non- sticky it features all the nourishing properties of a balm with the shine of a gloss and colour of a lipstick.

It smells and tastes absolutely incredible on your lips too- think sweet, creamy vanilla. Mnnnn, a delight for your senses as well as creating a soft, kissable pout.

I adore my Lip Perfector which is in shade 16 Intense Rosebud.  I would describe its shade as being somewhere between a nude and soft pink and it offers a really delicate hint of shimmer, creating a 3D illusion of fuller lips.

The quality of both the blush and lip perfector is obvious and I cant wait to explore other shades within the collection.

Clarins’ new Autumn collection featuring their new Natural Lip Perfector and Joli Blush shades will be available from August 25^th.
