Bourjois Cream Blushes

I bought some cream blushes from Bourjois awhile back and the ven't had the chance to show you guys till now. I got them from ASOS.com and they were GBP $7.99 each. Sometimes they do have promo on ASOS so do keep a look out.

Since there are already so many reviews about them, I'm not gonna be long winded but just to say they are nicely pigmented cream blushes. Cream to powder feel and I personally thought it's quite subtle no matter how much I applied on. Overall I like it! However same as other cream blushes, if you wish for the blush to stay put, I would suggest applying powder blush after that. For me, on it's own, it only lasted... perhaps about 3 hrs? and certainly lasted much longer when I added powder blush on top of it.

Here are the description (from Asos) and swatches:-

Most of them are matte/satin except Rose Tender which has some fine shimmers. 

Ok, it's getting late over here so I gotta say goodnight and hope you all have a lovely weekend ahead! xoxo

Bourjois cosmetics haul n swatch...

Hello, it's been awhile and hope everybody is keeping well. To start off with my blog after a long time is the latest Bourjois cosmetics which I recently bought from ASOS.com :-

• Bourjois Blush Exclusif : AUD $15.11 (current promo: $10.40) 
• BourJois Java Rice Powder : out of stock (bought it at $11.78) 

Both are the latest items from them and here are the descriptions:

• Bourjois Blush Exclusif - Bourjois launches a unique made-to-measure blush! Thanks to its pH-reactive pigments, it self-adjusts into a bespoke pink for a fresh complexion and made-to-measure healthy glow. Blush Exclusif uses Bourjois unique cream-to-powder technology, offering unrivalled blending quality and a buildable result.

• Bourjois Java Rice Powder - 

Bourjois celebrates its 150th anniversary with a reinvented vintage edition of its first historical best-seller*: Java Rice Powder. Luminous complexion- A delicately scented feather-light powder that lights up and smoothes complexion in one step. Its radiant and velvety finish immediately creates a youthful glow. One translucent shade is universal and lights up all skin tones.

Have tried both and must say they are lovely products with pretty packaging. The Java Rice powder has a pink tone to it and it smells good! Very smooth texture with specks of shimmers in it. Once you blended it out, it just gives a subtle glow without looking like disco ball. It doesn't give any coverage, just a tint of glow. I also like the sift that comes with it. Dun have to worry about powder smearing everywhere. :)

And as for the blush, it is a cream to powder form exactly like the other Bourjois cream blushes. Very smooth and quite pigmented. When I put it on my face, it looked like a milky pink shade. Subtle and pretty. Because of it's shade, I would say this is more suitable for fair skin.

Anyway, here's the swatches taken - 

Totally blended out...

Alrighty, I hope you enjoy that and till the next one, have a good night. xxx
