Topshop Blush

Dropped by Topshop at Ion Orchard earlier this week to check out the blushes, which have been restocked. There are 6 shades available, each retailing for S$13. Considering that these are manufactured in Italy, I would say they are quite a steal! Each contains 4g of product, compared to 6g for MAC's Blushcreme (US$18.50).

I picked up Neon Rose and Crushed Berry. The cream blushes apply without any greasiness and dry quickly to a smooth powder finish. They are super easy to blend with the fingertips for a natural hint of colour. Just dot three small dots on the apples of your cheeks and blend. The colour payoff is good and can be layered for greater intensity but personally, I prefer a more sheer finish as I don't like my blush to be too obvious and overdone.

Although I'm not a fan of the polka dots on the case, I find the lightweight slim case to be very convenient, especially for touch ups on the go as there is a mirror under the lip.

Here's the look that I did today with Crushed Berry blush, Paul & Joe Dual Powder Foundation UV 20 and Lip Crayon Duo #5 topped with Fresh Sugar Rose Tinted Lip Treatment, Guerlain Meteorites Butterfly Pearls, K-Palette Real Lasting Eyebrow 01 and Dior Cinq Couleurs #743 Coquette.

Here's the ingredients list for the Topshop blush.
