The L'Occitane Pivoine Flora Color Creams: Lighter Lovelies Are in Luck When It Comes to These Blush and Highlighter Duos - Makeup and Beauty Blog

Fifty'Occitane's Pivoine Flora Color Foam in Abricot on cheeks

I couldn't demi plié my manner out of a newspaper bag, but one thing I can do is hoard cream blushes like these Pivoine Flora Colour Creams from L'Occitane ($16 each).

Fifty-fifty after six months of ballet lessons back when I was in my 20s, I never looked one-half every bit svelte every bit the dancers on this packaging. These frail dames look like they land leaps that make less audio than a sigh. I, on the other hand, usually state my leaps off balance, and frequently with a loud thud.

I turn to cream blushes a lot when I'm in a hurry to become out the door. They're just then blasted piece of cake to use, fifty-fifty with fingers (apply to cheeks, blend and get).

Each of the express edition 50'Occitane Pivoine Flora Colour Cream duos comes with a blendable matte chroma AND a shimmery highlighter, then you get your cheek colour and glow going from a single, pretty bundle.

I've been playing with two of the three duos, Abricot (a sheer coral-ish peach blush with a pale peach sheen highlighter) and Rose (a cerise pink blush with a glittery pinkish highlighter). Both of the blushes feel smooth and dry with a texture that reminds me of Smashbox's Photofinish Primer. I'k not crazy about information technology, but it's easy to blend and seems to layer well without looking too heavy on my peel.

Rose

Both blushes are passably pigmented and stand out more to me for their oddly pleasing gummy comport scent (the berry ones, yum!). As far equally clothing time, they last about three hours on me — passable, but non particularly ballsy compared to something like an Illamasqua Foam Blush, which manages to hang on all solar day long, fifty-fifty in loftier estrus.

The highlighters, unfortunately, are all but lost on my NC forty tan. They should really come into their own on lovelies with lighter skin.

While I honey how these look in their pretty outfits, not being able to put the highlighters to proficient use kind of sets them back. Pale princesses, these might be perfect for you. Plus, they're just $xvi. 🙂

All-time seat in the firm

El Hub and I made a pact to prepare up our deck this yr, and we finally made some progress this week, adding an umbrella and a wicker Swingasan chair beside my favorite old cafe tabular array.

I beloved to read in the chair, but when I'thou sitting in information technology, my brusque legs barely touch the ground! 🙂

Your friendly neighborhood beauty aficionado,
