One of my absolute favourite drugstore brands has got to be Bourjois just because it is so typically French. I love how pretty the packaging is and the variety of products on sale. I have started a small collection which I hope will continue to grow and blossom into something amazing. So far, I have something for the eyes, cheeks and lips and next on my wish list are the Rouge Velvet lipsticks, the chocolate bronzer and one of their liquid blushes as well as a mascara or eyeshadow. So let's begin with the blushers...

| Left-Right ~ Little Round Pot Blush in 34 ROE D'OR, Cream Blush in 02 HEALTHY GLOW |
My very first blush was one of the Little Round Pot blushers in the colour Rode d'or (Golden Rose) which I chose for its perfect pink shade with a hint of golden shimmer marbled through out and I have to say I am very happy with it. Although I have found it to be slightly hard to pick up, depending on the brush I use,it is fabulously pigmented and really buildable so you can get the perfect flush.
The Cream Blush is the absolute perfect colour and delivers a lovely healthy glow to your cheeks, just as it says on the tin. With this one, I tend to just swirl my finger through it and then sweep that across my cheeks, making sure it is well blended so I'm left with no harsh lines. If I want to make doubly sure, I will then brush over that with a blush brush once it has converted to powder form. Which, by the way, I have found really useful because as a cream blush, it is very easy to apply and blend but when it turns into a powder, it also mattifys as well as adding colour, so it doesn't slide off you face. I highly rate both of these blushes and I will definitely be buying more :)
Now, moving on to lips, the bourjios Color Boost Glossy Finish Lipsticks claim a lot. They say they will:
- Give comfort and hydration for 10 hours
- They are waerproof
- Have SPF 15
- Give a bare lip sensation
But, I have to agree, they do exactly as they claim! They have a good colour pay off and are really creamy and hydrating so I don't feel like I need to wear a lip balm underneath. There isn't really much more I can say about them other that I love them and will definitely purchase more.i decided to buy these when Zoella mentioned them in one of her make up haul videos and I honestly don't regret it.

| ColorBand Eyeshadow and Liner Crayon in 04 ROSE FAUVISTE |
Finally, the last product, eyes. This is the Bourjois ColorBand Eyeshadow and Liner Crayon. This is a holy grail product if you are a fan of swiping over the eyelid, blending and go eye look like I am. It is good if you are in a hurry and still want a colour on your lids, or can be used in the inner corner or to accentuate on the lid. It had a long lasting (24 hour) colour, it's waterproof and it is also smudge proof. My only query with it is how am I supposed to sharpen it?? I haven't got a pencil sharpener that big and it certainly isn't a twist up like the lipsticks.
As always, pleace comment suggestion on how I can improve my revies and also on which products/books I should review next xXx
Next book post on Thursday. Don't miss it xXx
