Bourjois Little Round Pot Cream Blushes


Bourjois have produced blush in their pretty little round pots for at least 150 years and although its wise to leave a good thing untouched, Bourjois have reinvented their blush with a new innovative cream to powder technology. The little round cream blush pot has recently been to their collection. Being the blush lover that I am, since the release of this product, I've been dying to get my hands on them. There are only four shades at the moment and there is most definitely something to suit every skin tone. I'm a pink lady so rose tender is my favourite. I love the choice of matte and pearl finish too. Its a nice touch that the colour pot resembles the product inside too. 




The colours are as follows:
1 Nude Velvet - light delicate peach with matte finish
02 Healthy Glow - vibrant apricot with pearl finish
03 Rose Tender - soft pink with pearl finish
04 Sweet Cherry- deep brown-pink with matte finish


 
 
 


What really drawn me to these blushes was the claims that they provide a radiant, seamless, 'second skin' effect in a cream-to-powder formulation, some blushes can feel heavy and really sit on the skin which isn't to every ones liking. The texture of the product is amazing, They apply really easily, melting into the skin. There's no risk of sharp clown like edges with these blushes as they are so easy to blend. 




All of these blushes feel really light on the skin without being sticky. They might be silky soft but they don't slip off! This formula has cast iron staying power. 
The blushes come with a really handy little mirror in the pot. ideal for application on the move. I applied my blush with  Real Tecniques stippling brush and the finish looked perfect but they look just as well applied with fingers. 
If anyone was wanting to buy just one or two of these blushes id say go for one pink and one peach, but choose the depth of the colour dependant on your skin tone, so the lighter colours for pale. 




 


I bought my Blushes from Tesco whilst they had an offer on for 3 for 2 across cosmetics, and as  I had coupons and money off, I paid a tiny £14.00 for all four, so it pays to shop around. If you were to pop to boots you'd expect to pay around £7.99 per pot. 

I HATE product doesn't smell nice, (who would want to put something stinky on their skin?), and thankfully these blushes have a mildly floral scent. Happy days! 
Any other Blush lovers out there? Anyone thinking about splashing out on any of these lovelies?? 
Hope you enjoyed your Bank Holiday weekend, and thanks for reading
