Occasion Makeup & Review of ELF Studio Blush in Gotta Glow

Hi everyone! So earlier on in the week I posted a picture on the ELF cosmetics facebook page of me wearing The ELF studio blush in gotta glow.

 I got a lot of likes on the picture which made me very eager to tell you all my thoughts on this product.First of all the picture was taken before I attended a christening, so it is sort of an occasion makeup look but not too heavy.

Here is a list of the products i used:

Face:

• Clarins Beauty Flash Balm
• Estee Lauder Double- Wear Light stay in place makeup in Intensity 1.0
• MAC Studio Finish SPF 35 Concealer in NC20
• Rimmel Sun Shimmer Bronzing Powder
• MAC Blush in Dollymix
• ELF Studio Blush in Gotta Glow

Eyes:

(Although you can't see them in the quick photo i have taken sorry! i will list them anyway)

• MAC Brow Pencil in Taupe
• Urban Decay Eyeshadows in Virgin, Sidecar and Halfbaked (From Urban Decay Naked Palette)
• Too-Faced Lash Injection Mascara

Lips:

• MAC Lipstick in Angel
• No7 HighShine Lipgloss in Smile

I curled my hair loosely by using my midnight GHD Straighteners and finished by spraying the curls with the L'Oreal Elnett Hairspray Cheryl limited edition.

Unfortunately you can't see my dress in the picture but i am absolutely in love with it!

It's by TFNC and is available from their own website as well as ASOS and House of Fraser.

I wore mine with a belt to cinch in my waist and add some shape as the dress is very floaty.

Anyway!! Onto the ELF Gotta Glow Blush..

I am aware that this blush has been compared to a NARS highlight which i have never tried so cannot compare the two.
I found the packaging to be very nice, sleek and black not cheap looking even though the product itself was only £3.50.

I cannot rave enough about the product, it is a gorgeous highlighter which reflects a nice gold shimmer, but not too obvious even on my fair skin.

It is a dream to apply and i can see this product lasting a long time as a little goes a very long way.

I like to apply this to my cheeks, browbone and even very lightly down my nose.  

I have recieved many compliments and questions about my glowing skin when wearing this product, i recommend it to anyone and i will definitely be repurchasing this again and again.

 Sorry for this post being super long i wanted to tell you as much as i could about the different ways you can wear this highlighter, make-up and fashion wise.

I hope you enjoyed reading!
