Advantages: Suitable for sensitive skin, range of colours, budget
Disadvantages: packaging, not long lasting
Blusher is one of the things that a girl cannot do without, for me though I need to be really careful because I either end up putting on too much or choosing the wrong shade, both of which make me look like a clown.
I'm always on the look out for a bargain, and so when browsing in Boots last week I noticed that they had a special offer on all Natural Collection make-up products 3 for £5.00 (individual price £1.95). I picked up the shade "Pink Cloud" (which is one of 4 shades) because it was the closest match to the blusher I had currently been using. It glides on beautifully; I use a big blusher brush, swish it over the blush, and then blow the brush slightly to remove any excess powder before applying. I couple of sweeps with the brush on each cheek and I'm good to go. I have personally found that this blush doesn't tend to last throughout the whole day, which it is reasonable enough for day wear.
The Natural products are fragrance free and demagogically tested, which is brilliant for me because I have exceptionally sensitive skin, I've found with other blushers after a while I either get blemishes or dry patches with continued use, I haven't experienced that with the product to date.
I have found that due the packaging some powder can remain in the lid if I don't blow before screwing the lid back on, this has led to one or two incidents blusher incidents (getting blusher on my clothes when getting ready) which can be quite annoying.
All in all a great value product, it works well on my sensitive skin and I was able to find a shade to suit me. Not perhaps something I would wear for an evening out, but certainly suitable for day wear.
Summary: Good value budget blusher
