I am a massive product junkie, a
salesman's dream if you like. When I walk into a make-up shop I lose
all self control to the point where I temporarily forget that I have
rent to pay every month and splurge a large amount of my pay cheque
on every beautiful new package I see. The worrying thing is I don't
even regret it...even though I know I should!
I have in fact recently started to buy
my staple products online so that the urge to grab, play and
subsequently purchase isn't there (I do miss it though!)
At my mum's house this weekend however,
I was doing my usual morning routine and for once stood back to
really appreciate her bathroom.
A room lifted from the set of one of
Harry Potter's wizardry classes laid before me, lotions and potions
of every colour and size imaginable. My obsession explained...like
mother like daughter!
Just a selection of my mum's bathroom products |
And it was actually my mum who bought and introduced me to one of my current favourites, Laura Geller Baked Flambe Blush in Pink Velvet Pop.
This is a blush which is long lasting
and due to the two colours swirled together, when applied it gives a
stunning subtle highlight as well as the pretty pink flush. It
smooths on the skin beautifully leaving it feeling super soft and I
have even had a few compliments when wearing this.
The great thing about a product which
has been baked is that it generally contains more pigment so the
colour as you see it is very true to life and blends well. It is also
less likely to break or crumble in the case....bonus!
Lovely post! That blush seems like a great colour, very pretty :-)
