Bourjois Little Round Pot Blusher in Rose de Jasper

Im going to be completely honest and start this post out by saying i have not been a big fan of the Bourjois Little Pot Blushers in the past! I no you must be feeling a bit confused as to why i would have picked up a new one then so let me explain...

I no the Bourjois blushers are famous and much loved so when i tried my first one i really wanted to love it, unfortunately i did not. I found the beautiful colour that enticed me in the first place just didn't show up, all i was left with was very shimmery cheeks not the look i was going for. More recently i have tried a couple of the Bourjois cream blushers and been really impressed, they were lovely colours that blend well with an interesting cream to powder finish that i find lasts really well. 

Anyway, when i picked up the new Bourjois CC Cream and Concealer a few months back Superdrug had an offer that if you spent £15 or more you got a free Little Pot of Blusher or Eyeshadow. I was going to go for an eyeshadow when i thought perhaps the powder blushers deserved another chance, i spotted Rose de Jasper one of the newer shades and decided to give it a go. 

If you are unfamiliar with the Bourjois products, the blushers come in little round pots with a mirror in the lid and a little brush. I am a fan of the packaging its small and easy to slip into your makeup bag, the mirror is a handy extra too. I personally don't use the brush its too small and i prefer to use my Real Techniques brush but it is helpful to have. 

On to the colour, Rose de Jasper is a dusky rose shade, very english rose. Considering its quite a dark pink i actually find it looks very natural on the skin. Luckily i made a good choice and it is a lot more pigmented than the blusher i tried before, it gives a good flush of colour to the cheeks. 

It does have a shimmery finish, but its very subtle and just looks like a healthy natural sheen to the skin. 

I really do love this shade, and i am happy to report that I'm glad i gave the Bourjois Little Pot Blushers another shot. 

Have you tried a Bourjois Little Pot blusher? What did you think?
