A cheeky blog post

Hehe, see what I did there? anyway o.O on to my post of today. I am going to be featuring two products I have been using constantly on my cheeks since I bought them! one is the MUA cream blusher in Scrummy and the other is the Bourjois Maxi Delight bronzer in 02.

now I haven't always been that obsessed with cheek products but my collection has grown considerably the more I have been blogging. MUA is a brand I have always adored. I own their blushers, lipsticks, palettes, eyeshadows etc, and to be honest there has only been one product I haven't liked by them. their range is fantastic quality for the price and you seriously wouldn't think it cost only £1 or at most £5. I feel like sometimes their packaging lets them down being plastic, but come on! its made of some pretty decent plastic haha. 

now onto the blusher, I bought this when I went to superdrug on payday and just thought to hell with it and grabbed it. I have never used a cream blush before and wanted to try a cheaper alternative before I bought the bourjois ones because they are pricier at 7.99. 

first impressions were good, it is very easy to put on and I use my real techniques stippling brush to blend it out, you can use your fingers but im not a fan of letting my fingers touch my face when applying base makeup. I find the application is easy as the product is really nice and creamy. in all honesty, it has probably subsided my hurry to try the bourjois one and instead I might just purchase all the MUA cream blushes. 

if I had to say there is a downside to this product then it would be the smell. It has a rather plastic smell that I am not keen on but you can just choose to ignore it it doesn't bother you too much :)

 

the next product is the bronzer! I picked this up on the same superdrug trip as the cream blusher as bourjois had it on an introductory offer of 5.99 so I literally though yoink! and brought it home with me. thinking about it this is actually my first ever bourjois product, that ive bought anyway. 

 

first impressions was definitely the smell. it smells heavenly, kind of like chocolate, and it lingers on your face all day. which I love, because I can sometimes faintly smell chocolate, unless im going mad. 

since buying this I haven't gone back to my sleek contour kit, which must be a good thing as that product is a god send. the pigmentation on this giant baby is great, so the amount of product you get it going to last you forever. 

if I had to say one thing it is that it is a little too shimmery, but if it bothers you matte it down with a face powder afterwards :)
