I started my series on Budget Glamour items probably about a month ago and am JUST NOW getting to my 2nd item for review! Pathetic I know and for anyone who was excited about finding budget cosmetics that actually work, I APOLOGIZE for being such a slacker! My goal is to post my Budget Glamour reviews once a week from now on!
So getting right into it, I'm going to continue the series with the 2nd item I tried in the LA Girl cosmetic line which was their Platinum Collection Blush in Dimple/Blushing.
I bought the dual blush set which came with 2 colors and a handy little mirror as well. The mirror honestly wasn't so exciting but that really had nothing to do with why I purchased the blush anyhow! There are 12 different color combo sets to chooose from. I used the darker of the two colors in the pictures above. I decided that was probably the "Blushing" color... especially since it definitely made ME look like I was blushing. I didn't notice at first but after I opened up case in the light I could see that the blush had little sparkly flecks in it. I'm not a huge fan of glittery makeup so naturally that made me apprehensive at first but the sparkles turned out to be suprisingly subtle.
Pros:
A little goes a long way so it will last longer
Very pigmented
Lasted throughout the day (big plus for cheapy stuff)
Cons:
Powder was slightly messy
Didn't blend as easily as I would have liked
Overall Impressions: I'm not sure that the colors were necessarily perfect for my skin tone. For the "Blushing" color in the future I'll likely tone it down with a sweep of foundation powder over the color. But will definitely stay it was worth the $2.99 and I will use it again.
I give it a 4 out of 5 on the Budget Glamour scale.
You can buy this line at lagirlusa.com or cherryculture.com. On lagirlusa.com the Dual Blush was $6 but I bought it for $2.99 on cherryculture.com! Whut whuuut!!!
