Topshop Cream Blush Head Over Heels


My first ever Topshop makeup purchase whaat?! I don't know what's taken me so long to get into this I've heard nothing but good things since the range launched years ago. Fashionably late I think.


I was ordering online so was very unsure what to go for and how the shades translated in real life. So naturally, I played it safe and went for orange. Head Over Heels does look scary but carefully applied and blended quickly it can fade to almost nothing. It's a cream formula that dries to a powder finish but manages to stay quite dewy and glowy. I apply it with my index finger and blend with the other clean fingers to achieve the desired coral-cheeked effect. It seems to wear better than normal cream blushers but I do find it needs touching up at lunchtime.

The mirror in the lid is a nice touch but I do semi-hate the packaging (not a fan of polka dots). It's very sturdy though so should last well rolling around the inside of my overstuffed handbag.

All in all I'm quite impressed and eager to try the other shades available. And for £6 you really can't fault the quality. I would happily/easily spend twice as much on a similar product from a higher end brand.

Available in some shops and online.

What's your favourite item of Toppers makeup? And product recommendations for me?
