Festivities are over and it’s now the time that we see all of the Spring/Summer trends coming into the shops and it’s really exciting! Although it’s still cold, we’ve got the hope of it only getting warmer now, right? I hope so and this little parcel of Clarins goodies are definitely making me feel like it’s nearly Springtime. Enter, their new Garden Escape Collection. The collection has six pieces, an eyeshadow palette, a gorgeous green eye-liner pencil, the blush below and three lip products. I’m trialling the Blush Prodige in Sweet Rose and two of the Insight Light Lip Balm Perfector.
Sleek MakeUP Blush in Sahara
I picked this beautiful blusher up from Superdrug this week and had to share it with you because it’s so pretty, perfect so summer. It’s a stronger summer blush and easily lends itself to the perfect tanned, bronzed look. It may be more suited to brunettes as I can’t see this colour working very well with blonder hair just due to the intensity of it, if you’re blonde and it works for you, let me know, I might be wrong. This is Sleek blush in ‘Sahara’ and at only £4.49 it’s a bargain. I actually picked mine up for £3.04 because of student discount and a tiny bit of Superdrug Beauty Card Points!
MAC Warm Soul Mineralize Blush
This is another (& the last) of my duty free buys from Tokyo. I’ve had my eye on this for a while after I’d had a recommendation on Twitter for what to pick up in duty free. I don’t own any bronzey-peach blushes like this, the majority of mine are quite strong or deep pinks so this is a nice change for me. It looks really good with a tan and makes you look more tanned when you wear it, I like it just above a matte bronzer contour for a bit of shimmer on the cheeks. It’s described on the MAC website as a mid tone beige with gold pearl. It is such a pretty shade and I’m really glad I bought it.
