Advantages: Natural good quality

Disadvantages: new shadeso of blush have Carimne in them that is squashed bugs powder YUK

Lily Lolo has a great variety of Blush Pots to suit every complexion. They powders are very well pigmented so you will only need a small amount for you cheeks, this way one pot can last you very long. On a plus side one pot lasts 2 years from the time you upend it but because they use basic natural pigments you may safely use them for longer, there is nothing to go off in them. I do not recommend using the jar lid to pick up the powder though for hygienically reasons.

Because their powders are so well pigmented they will last a very long time. To apply them you will need a very fine brush who can distribute the products easily. I found that the brushes Lily Lolo sells are not of much use unless you want a heaver application but that depends a lot also on the colour you try to apply.

There is a selection of 13 colours at the moment, some being matte, shimmery or sparkly. At the moment they have discounted some of the colours and brought some new exciting ones in.
The powders fell lovely on the skin and they will not dry your skin.

If you don't know what shade will suit you can order small samples for £0.75 enough for a few applications. A big pot is £7

Bad points:
The new shades that wore brought in all weigh less by about 1g or 1.5g and the samples price have gone up from £0.49 to £0.75.Plus in my opinion they have discounted some great unique shades of blush.
Oh and be careful some contain now Carmine in them. For those who do not know Carmine is some ugly looking bug they kill for its colour, search on Google this information if you don't believe me. I am not a vegetarian but I put my foot down when it comes to dried up bugs juice. Why Lily Lolo WHY? You had such a good reputation.
You know at least is still natural right?

Summary: I can't get over the Carmine thingy ewww
