Amazing Laura Geller blush

Baked Cheek Dream Highlight and Blush
This baked blush came in the Vanilla Nudes collection I got from Laura Geller recently. I wanted to do a quick post on it because it’s beyond awesome and the colour is one of those universally pretty shades that manages to suit pretty much every skin tone. Oh and it's called Neapolitan - I'd have bought it just for the name :)
I hadn’t expected much from this because I’m generally not a fan of the blend-in-the-pan blushes that have a few different shades but I’ve actually enjoyed using each of the colours separately too… the highlighter is gorgeous on the brow bone, on the cupids bow, in the corner of the eye and, er, on the cheeks as a highlighter (but I guess that one goes without saying) and of course a quick swish in a circular motion in the pan is perfect for getting a pink/peach shades for an every day simple blush shade
One of the things I dislike about powder is how it can look cakey and heavy even if you only apply the smallest amount but this is so finely milled that it doesn’t sit in the pores or look thick on the skin. It’s incredibly natural and easy to use because it blends more easily than I’d have thought possible
The only negative? This came with a collection that I got from QVC and I haven’t been able to find it anywhere else so once I run out I’ll have to buy the whole set again! Though considering I’ve used this loads recently and have barely made a dent in it I reckon it’ll be a while before I have to shop for another one

This looks like a nice set hun, a bit annoying that you would need to buy the whole set again if there was just one product you wanted BUT you could always gift the other items for friends and family. x

I really want to try something from the Laura Gellar line. I wanted to get one of their baked sets but it only comes in medium and I need light. The blush, highlight, bronzer trio is so pretty. Its a shame you can't get the pieces separately.
