Charlotte Tilbury Cheek To Chic, Swish and Pop Blusher in Love Glow

In the spirit of Valentines weekend, 'Cheek to Chic, Swish and Pop' blushers in 'Love Glow'is featuring on my blog today.

The blush is a very lightweight and slim circular compact with a large mirror.  Each blush in the range has 2 complimentary shades-the outer 'swish' colour to apply all over the cheekbone and the inner 'pop' colour to highlight the centre of the cheek.  Application of this method is a little tricky given the layout of the blush, it's difficult to avoid picking up the centre colour when you're trying to 'swish' so in the end I just end up swirling my brush around the whole pan to pick up both colours. 

Love Glow is far more shimmery than I expected it to be and the two colours together remind me of a pinker toned version of Nars 'Super Orgasm' blush.  It's incredibly pigmented and you only need the lightest touch.  The powder is very finely milled and silky, almost creamy.  I applied it using a Mac 168 large contour blush.

I think this blusher is too shimmery for me personally to use in the daytime but could be pretty in the evening.

Have you tried any of the Charlotte Tilbury products?  I have also reviewed her Uptown Girl palette, Dolce Vita palette and 5 of her K.I.S.S.I.N.G lipsticks so far.
