Jill Stuart Blush Blossom 01 and 03




Hi everyone! I tried my very best to resist the new Jill Stuart Blush Blossoms, but completely caved in and bought two. They just look so pretty and sweet, I couldn't resist!





I bought this blush in the shades 01 Romantic Sweet Pea and 03 Lady Amaryllis from cosmede.com

They were packaged in the usual sweet pale peachy pink Jill Stuart boxes, with instructions on the back on how to use the product.




The blush comes in a beautiful case with a little white goat hair brush that is great for travelling.



According to Jill Stuart:
'Loose cheek powder to layer two colors for customised shimmer and hue. For cheeks that look like they are naturally blushing. Its light and breezy texture blends effortlessly into your skin for a flawless look. Provides long lasting, beautiful finish with clear colors accompanied by a feeling of rich moisture. Contains pure crystal powder and crystal floral bouquet fragrance.'

I've got to say that Jill Stuart is great for very sweet, romantic looking colours.



The case opens to reveal a good sized mirror, and a plastic cover to protect the powder from splling.


The other side of the plastic cover is padded to aid in tapping off excess powder from the blush. The blush itself is housed under elastic netting. Each compact contains two colours; a full colour blush and a lighter shade for highlighting. The powder has a gorgeous scent - a soft floral fragrance.

Here is a sneak peek of an FOTD using the Blossom Blush in 03 Lady Amaryllis.


The blush was a little difficult to apply at first (I made a bit of a mess), as the brush picked up lots of powder and extremely light application was required.

  4. I'm both happy and sad seeing those crazily cute blushers, happy that there isn't any Jill Stuart counters in Penang and sad that there isn't any Jill Stuart counter in Penang. I fear I would have been a little too 'happy' parting with my hard earned pay check for those babies..

  5. I'm drooling over the color pigmentation of these blushes and the packaging is so adorable as well. I wish I could try this out too, but the place where you got it is all sold out.

  11. thanks for the swatches <3! totally agree with you there, the loose powder form is such a mess when applying :S and easy to over-apply as well!

    (i'm actually taking orders for the JS christmas set lol, and all of a sudden there were like 3 people asking for a set within 3 days) O_o

    if you need anything from JS in future, you can let me know :)
