Look at Superdrug

On a recent perusal of the Superdrug website I noticed that the majority of the Look make up collection was reduced by up to 50%, seeing that I love both the products I've already tried I took advantage of the offer and got all of the above, plus a mascara and nail polish for a bargain

The offer's still on but I don't think it's 50% any more, still a good discount to be had though

I'm tempted to pick up a few other bits now paydays here!

I like the simple packaging of the larger products but not so much the big text on the front, I like things clean looking and simple

The cream blusher is in quite a cheap plasticy housing but I do like the fact you can see the colour inside

All of the bronzers and blushers in the Look range are in the same packaging so it's hard to tell what your picking up without opening it.

As you can see from the swatches they are all really well pigmented and lovely colours too

Rosy is a subtle pink, something I don't actually have in my collection as it's not coral! 

It's a really pretty colour and is perfect for an everyday, rosy cheeked look

Flush is, surprise surprise, a coral..it's similar to the Nars Orgasm in colour but doesn't have the chunky glitter in it which I think is a bonus

Hollywood is a really nice warm bronzer, I prefer warm colours on my skin tone

This requires quite a light hand to avoid looking like mud but I think it would make a stunning eyeshadow colour

I'm really enjoying cream blushers at the moment and Melon is a gorgeous colour, similar to Topshop flush but different enough to not be a dupe

It's a lovely pink colour, again nice and warm and looks great lightly buffed into the cheeks

Very impressed with my little Look haul and I'm now off to eye up some more purchases!

Love

Topshop 'Flush' Blusher

Topshop Cream Blush in 'Flush'

I've seen plenty about the Topshop make up range around the blogosphere but hadn't dabbled myself until recently. I took the plunge on a trip to Brighton and picked up this cream blusher, the lipstick in Brighton Rock (felt it was fitting) and a nail varnish in Moonshine. 

I'd never used a cream blusher before but having heard such good things about Topshops attempt I thought I'd give it a go and at only £6 I figured I had nothing to lose.

The colour I chose was Flush, I was debating between this and Neon Rose which may well be my next purchase now...

The consistency is almost like a thick paste to me which dries to a powder consistency, I use my fingers to apply to the apples of my cheeks and blend with my Crown duo fibre blusher brush. I do find it quite easy to over do this blusher though, probably doesn't help how poor the lighting is where I put my make up on leading to put on more than I need. Luckily it is easily blended out to an appropriate tone. 

Topshop describe this colour as a Rose colour, I'd agree to an extent.

It has a corally undertone which first attracted me but there is a deeper, almost mature, overall colour which is where I see the rose colour. 

Neon Rose is now firmly on my wish list as are a few other Topshop products.

I personally quite like the packaging, it's cute and different to anything else in my collection. I know a lot of people don't like the packaging and gripe at how dirty it gets, mine hasn't actually gotten that dirty in the time it's been bashed about in my make up bag.

Any other cream blusher recommendations?

Love
