MUA Mosaic Blusher in English Rose - Review




I've had this product since Autumn 2012 and I'm only just getting round to reviewing it as I honestly don't really use it. I must admit I was drawn to this product for it's beauty and it's price tag. This is the first and only mosaic product that I own but I love the idea of them. I would love to try a high end mosaic product. MUA also make a mosaic bronzer which I have almost picked up in Superdrug several times but I just cannot tell which shade would be best for my skin tone.

The blusher contains pink, peach and lilac shades, which is meant to be mixed together. I use my Real Techniques Blush Brush to apply the blusher. On my skin tone it leaves a subtle light pink glow which is suitable for everyday but I like more of a pop on my cheeks in the evening. Also this blush is very shimmery, which I don't really like on the apples of my cheeks. Therefore, I use it on the top of my cheekbones as a highlighter rather than a blush. For this job it's perfect and maybe should be advertised as a highlighter rather than a blusher. Although my skin tone is pretty fair, I wouldn't describe it as English Rose. If you have a darker skin tone I'm not sure the blush would show up at all. The packaging is the usual offerings from MUA - black and transparent. It's sturdy and I think would be suitable in your make up bag or clutch bag to top up your blush/highlighter on a night out.

Have you used mosaic blushers or bronzers? Have you tried MUA's versions?

Week 6


Jayne Eyre, Chicken soup, New jumper and necklaces, Nail Polish, Benefit Hoola bronzer, Painted nails, Burning candle, Creme De La Mer, Sunday afternoon reading, Hot chocolate, Hay Day addiction, CSI.

Hello!

I hope you've had another amazing week. Another week that has flown by. I've been ill this week. It started as a cold and then I got this horrendous cough. I went to the doctors and I was given antibiotics for a chest infection. I'm feeling a lot better now but this cough is driving me insane and keeping me awake in the night, which is not good for my beauty sleep!

I'm off work for a week now as it's half term. Yay! However, I have lots of house work to do and I want to start decorating but I'm not sure painting is the best thing for a cough. Plus it's too cold to have the windows open! I cannot wait until we have warmer weather! I live for summer!

What have you been up to this week?

Mini Haul #3

I haven't done a haul post since October, yet I feel I've spent so much money on make up and beauty products! These are the products I have bought over the past month or so. I think I'm going to keep track of the beauty products that I buy and jot them down in a notebook. I'm trying to not spend as much on things I don't need as lately (thanks to blogging) I have spent a fortune on things I want! I still have a massive list of things I want! Reading blog posts and watching YouTube videos on new products, monthly favourites and tutorials are really not helping. But I can't help it! It's what I love and really is my hobby! Blogging is an expensive hobby!
