These were two of my Christmas presents. I had asked for them both from my step dads mum & dad so I sort of knew what I was getting, however I was still very happy when I opened it! I hadn't seen the blush in real life, I found it online when I was frantically searching for a Christmas list (as I hadn't made one because I didn't have a clue what I wanted, shocking I know!)
Apart from the S&G tingly lipgloss that I think every blogger and their dog owns, this is my first S&G makeup product which is very exciting. I have heard amazing things though, so I was very happy to open this!
Although online describes it as 'pink, pop & pearl' I've been telling people its almost like a blush, highlighter and bronze in one - because it is. The pink is very rosy cheeked, the lighter 'pearl' is SUCH a gorgeous highlight and you could easily use the third one as a bronze if you didn't have any to hand.
As a fairly 'new' blusher user, I don't tend to change my blushers up much. I generally (as I do with all my make up) use the same product for months and then have a change up. I know I have accumulated enough make up for 20 girls in the past year but theres just something about changing my makeup I hate. I know where I am with my basic makeup and I know nothing can go wrong. What I'm trying to get at is that this gorgeous little thing has fast replaced my every day blush.
Although I asked for a blusher and a blusher brush, I didn't actually ask for them to come together so it was even more of a surprise when they did. I have wanted the RT blusher brush since.. well since I saw it I guess. Here's a strange fact: I have never bought myself any of the RT brushes I own. I couldn't tell you why, I just haven't.
I would say that this brush is probably the best one I own out of at the RT brushes so far. I just love it. It's such a perfect shape and density to apply powder onto the cheek. I haven't tried cream blushes (because we all know me and cream blushes DO NOT GET ON) but I can imagine that it would also do the trick for those too. This is just 10/10, I luuuurve it.
Together these two are like a cheek dream-team duo. Don't believe me? Find out for yourself.
What is your cheek dream-team duo??? I'd love to find out!
These are lovely products, and I love the shades in the blush! I love using the rt contour brush for blush and I tend to mix the blush colour up a bit :)

I love this blush, I'll be getting this next time I am in town, and I know what you mean about changing your make up look i am the same xxx
ReplyDeleteI'm exactly the same, I prefer using the same product until it runs out, even if I collect other makeup in the mean time! The Love At First Blush is stunning, I have a few similar products and they do make a perfect blusher/ highlighter!

I made my Christmas list super late as well this year! Something like 4 days before Christmas... haha! That blusher brush looks like something I could definitely add to my collection. I bought the core collection earlier this year and for christmas I received the eye set. Used to love S&G makeup, you've rekindled some of my feelings for them!! x

I'm yet to try any Soap and Glory face makeup (I've only used the mascara and lipgloss before) but this looks lovely! Real Techniques brushes are great aren't they?

Ooh this is so pretty, I want one!! I have the RT Blush Brush but I don't use it that often, I find it quite prickly on my face. I will deep condition it next time I was it and hope it softens up!

The Soap & Glory blush is so beautiful! I absolutely love the Real Techniques blush brush, although I haven't actually tried using it with cream blush. I agree that it's perfect for applying powder :) xx

This Soap & Glory blush looks gorgeous, need to have a look at it next time I'm in Boots. RT brushes are such great value and amazing quality, this particular blush brush is also a favourite of mine x

I always stop and look at that blush, but for some reason, I always walk away. I think it may be time I finally picked it up! Thanks for sending your link over in the twitter chat!

Adore this! I always watch it when I pop into Boots, it is on the list!! x

I've been eyeing this blush up for a while it's stunning! I have to agree with the blush brush I find that it is perfect due to its tapered shape :)

This is legit love at first sight!! Oooh it looks perfect - I've wanted blusher come highlighter for ages and don't get along with brozers too well but this looks like the perfect compromise! Lucy, www.aspectatorsport.com xx
ReplyDeleteNot a big fan of blush but might just have to try this Soap & Glory one. I'm a big fan of their bath products, but I've actually never tried any of their make-up range. (Apart from the lip plumping lip gloss. Obviously!) x
