No7 Vital Brights Cream Blush in Blossoming Pink - Review

I recently purchased this cream blush with a No7 £5 voucher (you know that one's that you collect in the bottom of your bag/purse and feel you have to use?) The collection is designed by Lisa Eldrigde and is for the new spring/summer season. The range includes another cream blush, two lipsticks to match the cream blushes, a highlighter and a eyeshadow palette.

Blossoming Pink is a deep peachy-pink colour with no shimmer. It seems to dry to a matte finish (cream-to-powder) but if you layer it up to a deeper colour is has a very subtle sheen to it.

I've heard mixed reviews about the packaging but I personally think that it is pretty and very spring/summer and encases the product well so that if you drop it it does not smash.



Swatched heavily - Swatch blended out

The blush (on myself) is a very natural flush of colour, similar to my natural 'actual' blush. You can apply it with your fingers or I find it best to apply it with a Real Techniques stippling brush. I normally just get a bit of product from the pan and 'stipple' it into my skin. I have found this blish to have excellent pigmentation and stays put for around 6-8 hours (on my oily skin).
