Topshop Cream Blusher in Head Over Heels


 I've always loved the feel of cream blushers on my skin ever since owning a Collection 2000 one when I was around 11 years old! I hate having to use brushes for makeup, as I then have to carry them round with me for top ups and they can get damaged when they're kept in a bag all day so if I can help it I prefer products I can apply with my fingers.
I bought this a few weeks ago and I'm in love. Head Over Heels is a blue toned pink that can be layered for a more intense effect. It brightens my skin and is just the right shade for me. 
I have found it can sometimes rub your foundation off if you're heavy handed when applying but if you 'press' the colour into the skin it works prefectly. Obviously as it's a cream blusher it dosen't have the same staying power as a powder but it's so quick to apply I don't really mind.
The mirror has also been a lifesaver for me as it's always something I manage to forget to put in my make up bag. I love the cute packaging and as it's quite a slim pallette it takes up minimal space. I can't wait to go back and get more shades!

What do you think of Topshop makeup?

Shop My Wardrobe

ebay username: trixiexo

Just a quickie to shamelessly plug my ebay. I really need to get back into the swing of making regular posts! I'm ebaying like mad lately to raise money for my laptop/iphone/car fund. I am just such a bad saver, as soon as I see that that tiny minus sign on my bank balance has dissapeared and I'm no longer overdrawn I seem to spend like a socialite for a week and then wonder why I'm skint.
So I've fallen back in love with my faithful ebay friend. I've got so much to add in the next few weeks, at the moment I have just about sorted through clothes, then its onto accessories/unused beauty products and then books dvds etc.
Hope everybody is well! I've got a few reviews coming up and I will probably do a haul video as I've not posted any outfits in months, stay tuned! xoxo
