New brand discovery: The Face Shop

The Face Shop is a new brand for me and I have been walking around it for some time. In terms of the shopping experience I can say that:
  • ·      the store itself quite small
  • ·      store assistants can be a little bit pushy
  • ·      The products are generally cheaper than in other skincare and cosmetics stores
  • ·      There's a significant emphasis and the variety of choices of the skin care items
Now let's talk about the purchases. This time I decided to focus on makeup items, instead of skincare. The product that I loved the most and what I noticed the first in The Face Shop is the blush – Pink Cushion Blusher

I completely fell in love with these blushes. What is there not to love: the packaging is super cute, small and convenient if you want to put it in your bag. The color I picked is a matte  pale pink, it adds healthy natural look to my skin in a subtle way.



However, there were brighter pink tones, an orange blush, blushes with shimmering effect. I'd give this blush 5 stars.


I also got Shimmering BB Cream. Now this product is a tricky one. It says that it contains Crystal Modeling Powder which offers radiant, luminous complexion. And it is true. The skin really shimmers and radiates glow. The shimmers also stay on the skin throughout all day. And this is also the reason why it can be a drawback for people with oily skin. The foundation that is supposed to cover skin imperfections disappears after some time, leaving only shimmers. That's why I use it as a highlighter and apply it only on my cheeks. Overall, I give this BB Cream only 3.5 stars.
