Cheek of the week?

We've all seen FOTDs and EOTDs but do we think COTW could catch on??!  It does rhyme after all...

I would happily make the statement that cheek products are my favourite to buy.  Lipsticks are nice but I never really get that excited about; eyeshadows I love but have enough to last me lifetime..

Cheek products however possess an appeal second to none...  The allure of a new bronzer, blush or highlighter is sometimes just too much.  The multitude of formulas and vast selection of shades means I never get bored of madly swatching products in the aisles of Boots or at the Selfridges' counters.  And as such, I can always justify a new purchase.

Most recently it has been Sleek's Rose Gold that I finally got my mitts on two weeks ago and it hasn't been off my cheeks since.  Combined with Chanel Bronze Universel and MAC Hush Cream Colour Base, it creates the perfectly defined, highlighted and rosy cheeks that I am always aiming for.



These three products were made for each other.

What cheek products have you fallen in love with recently?  Do we think COTW could catch on?!  Did Rosie cheat with Hugo? (Not connected but an all important question all the same...)

Let me know! xxx

An old favourite...

My love affair with MAC's Hush Cream Colour Base is no secret... since I purchased it last year it has barely been off my cheekbones.  So when I realised to my dismay last week that I literally had only a scrap left (..I think I'd been in denial for weeks at how fast I was running out) and no time to repurchase, I had a rummage in my stash and came across a previous love...

Prestige Skin Loving Minerals Glam Tan Bronzer


Although showcased in a previous FOTD in the form of a bronzer, this time I lightly swept it just along the tops of my cheekbones to provide the 'lit-from-within' dewiness I love.  I am not sure this would work with my normal skin tone - as the product is quite dark - but with my Spanish tan still lingering, it took on the role of a highlighter perfectly.

Cue embarrassing photo from a recent night out...

If someone has a hat on, you just have to try it on...right?!

As well as the gorgeous sheen and fantastic pigmentation, this product applies beautifully; you can build it up as you wish and takes on the role of an eyeshadow perfectly.  The mineral based product means it's gentle on your skin and at just £9.49, it is gentle on your purse too.

Prestige is one of those brands that I always overlook but out of the few products I do own, they are seriously impressive and I go back to time and time again.  The Pure Shimmer version of this product is definitely on my radar for when I'm less tanned... 

Do you have any Prestige recommendations?
