Velvet Lashes

Hi Loveys!

 

I have done this review on a product that I first purchased years ago in London, when it came out in a collection, and to see it in the permanent line is fabulous!!

 

Dolly Mix is a bright coral pink that adds a beautiful flush of colour to the cheeks, you can add it to give a subtle look or really build it up for a striking flush of colour. The pigmentation is unreal! Its so pigmented that you don't need a lot so the blusher lasts a long time, it is a sheertone shimmer blusher, don't let the word shimmer put you off as it doesn't contain chunks of glitter in it, it has a subtle shimmer which just reflects beautifully on the skin.

 

I am seriously considering a blusher palette but not sure, what do you think? As I do like to take blushers out and with a palette that wouldn't happen would it!

 

Have you tried this blusher? What are your favourite branded blushers?

Hello Loveys,

 

Todays review is on the MAC blusher in Breath Of Plum, a gorgeous warm blush that adds a flush of berry to the cheeks, perfect teamed with a smokey eye.

This is my first MAC blusher in years, I first bought Dolly Mix when it came out in the Limited Edition collection many moons ago, it had fun white and Japanese inspired graffiti, if I am right as can't quite remember the exact description, I fell in love instantly but left getting a new one till I had gone to another MAC store which I hadn't and time flew past without me thinking twice about purchasing a blusher again, but its time!

This blusher has great pigmentation, it is a sheertone blush which means you can build up the colour rather then looking like you have applied a tone of blusher in one go. I wanted to pick a blusher that was warm and not a shade I had tried before, and boy is this a beauty, it is so pretty, and have not seen another like this on the beauty market. The only thing about this blusher is that it would only suit, in my opinion, an autumn winter look so isn't one to use all year round which I didn't think about at the time, just something to think about if you want to buy this blusher! The name Breath Of Plum is something that attracted me to this as its such an unusual inviting name, where you imagine sitting by the fire, your cosy clothes on after a warm bath with a nice cup of tea and a candle flicking nearby.I will definitely want to add to the collection and will be going straight for Dolly Mix as still remember its beauty, but would highly recommend this if you are looking for a warm berry shade that gives you that just got indoors from a frosty walk look.
