My Ultimate Autumn/Winter 2010/Spring 2011 Product.

W7 SILKY SMOOTH BLUSH COMPACT - buy here! 


I am sooooo pleased I found this product, I kept seeing it online and in my MakeUp Mecca (All Wellangood) and I didn't think I could justify YET another blusher to my growing collection, after having several that are lovely and subtle, I have chubby cheeks but I still wanted more definition on the cheekbones I wish I had :))


This compact is around £2.75 inc postage online, I would advise buying online as the W7 products are few and far between available on the high street/department store. All Wellangood being a good example sell this at £3.50 , but the advantage of spending a little more is that you see the product and test the 4 different shades before purchase.


The First Impressions of the box is that its a sturdy well designed case with a clever mirror style back so it means one less item (the mirror) in your bag, I personally don't believe the casing is big, however some friends disagree - it might have something to do with me giving it pride of place everywhere! 


The Application
The product as the name suggests is VERY smooth, the downside is there is no applicator, however.....this product is ideal as using your pinkies is a better way to apply it - also you do not need alot of the product to make a good impression on those plum and cheekbone areas. Also the handy mirror on the back ensures that Public Transportista's such as myself find it EVEN more easy to apply 'on the go' 


It gives a soft glow (depending on shade) and looks very natural and healthy with a touch of glamour, its just lovely and doesn't feel heavy or look too fake.


My Personal Likes
The whole package works for me, I love the shade,colour,price, length of use.....the entire sha-bang!! 


My Personal Dislikes
I just wish it was more easy to buy in the high street, I mean my local All Wellangood is only in town (20 mins away) but just the general range really! 




Rating: .....wait for it....... 5/5 (Sparkles&Mirrors first full marks!)
