Mini Topshop Beauty Haul

Topshop Glow Highlighter in 'Polish' - £9 Topshop Cream Blush in 'Head Over Heels' - £6

 On the same day I went to the vintage fair, see this post for full details. When I was in town I popped into Topshop to pick up the cream blush that my friend Hollie recommended and that I have been eyeing up for ages. I love everything I have ever bought from the topshop make up line so has this latest purchase lived up to my high expectations?

I got it in the shade Head Over Heels which is a gorgeous coral shade. It is a cream to powder blush, I applied a little bit just now over powdered make up and it worked fine although I do think it would look even better over non powdered skin. I think it would last better with a little translucent powder dusted over the top as well, due to my super oily skin!
The colour looks a little scary in the pan but built up in light layers it looks really pretty! I used a real techniques stippling brush to apply it which worked really well. I only popped it on for this post but I really like it. If I really like it no doubt it'll turn up in a favourites post soon. 

The highlighter I first spotted a couple of weeks ago and really liked but I thought it was a bit expensive so decided to leave it and decide if I still wanted it and I did! It's sold as a highlighter but when I swatched it in the shop I thought it wouldn't be much cop as a face highlighter but would be a really pretty inner corner highlight for my eyes. However, when I got it home I thought I would try it on my cheekbones and good grief it looked amazing!! Not too shimmery, not too shiny not too gold - it's perfect! When I put it on my cheeks I used the tiniest amount, warmed it between my fingers and applied it lightly and blended it with my fingers. I don't think this would work with a brush - it may apply a little heavy. It's really soft and creamy and I really like it. 

It will be intersting to see how these fare in the hotter months - they might just slide right off but I hope not! I'll keep you posted.

Sorry for the horrid photo! I was super tired after a day of shopping but really wanted to show what it looked like on the cheeks!
