After being really impressed with Topshop's lipsticks i decided to try one of their cream blushers. I chose the newest in their collection, head over heels, which is a cute pink blush. It is the lightest pink from the Topshop range, and has a very subtle peach undertone when applied to the skin -
I was initially hesitant, as i wasn't sure how to apply cream blushers, but after playing around with a few different techniques, eventually i found one that works for me -
The box says "dot on cheeks and blend". Using one finger i dotted the blush on the apple of my cheeks & the top of my cheek bone. I then blended it using ELF's studio powder brush, moving it in circular motions up and down my cheek bone, so that the blush distributed evenly.
Cost - £6.00
Packaging - 4/5 (love the mirror, but the white packaging gets dirty looking after being in a makeup bag)
Colour - 4.5/5
Overall Rating - 4.5/5
I would defiantly recommend this product. It's perfect for summer as it can create a dewier finish than powder blushes. I will be trying out a couple other colours soon!

I'm always so reluctant to try cream blushes, but it sounds easier than I thought. I might have to give this a try!
Have a great day!

I've been impressed with topshop make up too - i think i'm going to check this product out next time i'm in the shops. I blogged about the lip polishes last week but it's not so much a review, just pretty pics! x
