Review: Charlotte Tilbury's Cheek to Chic Blush in Love Glow

Feast your eyes on this gorgeous packaging. This is my review of Charlotte Tilbury's 'Cheek to Chic' blush in Love Glow which I would describe as being a finely golden-shimmered, warm pink (outer part), with the inner part being a cooler, lighter pink.

Review: Nars Blush in Orgasm


The most famous Nars blush shade seems an apt choice to start my trilogy of reviews.

This peachy-pink with gold shimmer is said to be a universally-flattering shade and I would agree to a point. Darker skins may use this as a rosy hued highlighter perhaps. On my pale skin it works really well because, let's face it, many more pigmented blushes are a disaster waiting to happen. There are many Nars blush shades that I look at in awe (Exhibit A, for example), but I know that I would look like Coco the Clown if I dared to venture into the brighter colours.


The sheen that Orgasm gives is beautiful and subtle. It acts as a blush and highlight in one if applied on the cheekbone. I would recommend this shade without question to those that want to err on the side of caution with their blush.
