Worth Hunting Down: Maybelline Dream Touch Blush

What? - Maybelline Dream Touch Blush
Shades? - 02 Peach, 06 Berry, 07 Plum, 08 Apricot
Price? - £6.49 for 63 grams
Where? - Boots or Superdrug

I couldn't do a series on products worth getting your hands on without including my ultimate surprise holy grail product. I first purchased one of these on a whim because I struggle with powder blushes staying put, then was impressed with the formula so went back for a second shade. Ironically now, the first shade I bought (Berry) is pretty unloved, but the second shade (Peach) is now the product I consciously reach for the most.

I love this product and I think it's fantastic value for money. The tiniest amount goes such a long way and they are highly pigmented. If we combine this with their availability, it's a win-win.

Have you tried these blushes? What's your holy grail blush? Let me know in the comments below!

It's All Peachy

A few weeks ago I mentioned the Maybelline Dream Touch Blush in Berry. Well today I'm sharing a second shade from the series with you, Peach. I initially assumed this was way too light for my complexion, but in actual fact I feel it suits me quite well and for a drugstore product, I really can't rave about it enough.

It's a super pigmented cross between a mousse and a cream blush. I had initial reservations because we all know Maybelline's Dream Matte Mousse is never going to win an award for being a wonderful foundation, and I feared this would head the same way. Thankfully, not only is it super pigmented, but it's also super easy to apply and incredibly long lasting on the skin. I really struggle to find powder blushes that will stay put, but this really does last from morning to night and it has become such a staple item for me during my hectic university days.
