My New Powder Blush!



Hey beautiful dolls. Hope you're all well. Okay so I've tried this blusher a few times its the Illamasqua powder  blusher -Hussy £16.50



Okay so what some of you might not know is that when it comes to blusher i am fussy. Especially when it is everyday blusher because it HAS to be matt and free from all kinds of shimmer. It must look like a healthy warm glow instead of looking like my 6 year old brother has drawn on me with his crayons. "Remember makeup is not a mask and a woman's natural beauty should always shine through." - François Nars
So a natural build up of the blush is essential instead of getting loads of blush onto your face at once. Dip your blusher brush into the blush(I use The Body Shop blusher brush £12) then tap the brush against your wrist to get rid of excess powder and smile. Apply the blush over the apples of your cheeks. I use blusher to give myself a healthy glow and a naturally beautiful flush of colour. It is also ace to blend in any cheek bone contouring which i use it for. 

The blusher is highly pigmented and i found it amazing how you can wear less of it for a casual every day look and build it up gradually for an event. It has a blend of pinks and peachy colours and it would suit any skin tone. This is my fave blusher. I actually spotted this about a year ago when i had my makeup done by Illamasqua for my Birthday and the woman at the counter told me the blusher was called "Hussy" i remember thinking i won't ever forget that name. 

Here are some images of my blusher without the flash so you have an idea what it looks like.





As you can see its a gorgeous matt colour to give you a very natural looking healthy flush of colour and a beautiful glow. My absolute fave blusher right now from Illamasqua.
