Hello! ♥
I've always been a bronzer girl and have steered very far away from blush.. I've always thought blushes weren't really flattering on me, but something has changed recently and I've become obsessed!
The latest addition to my growing blush collection is the new Kiko Shade Fusion Trio Blush in the shade '05 Marsala'. Kiko have released this blush in 6 beautiful shades, along with powders and bronzers in the same range. They're all packaged in the prettiest silver compacts (which remind me of the Hourglass powders quite a lot actually!).
This super smooth blush blends out effortlessly and seamlessly during application. It gives a lovely glowy flush of colour to my cheeks with it's satiny-velvet finish.
It's a fairly pigmented blush, but not to the point where I'm worried I'll end up overdoing it and looking like a clown! I love that the pigmentation is buildable.
Although the blush does seem to look as if it's started to fade by the end of the day, I do still love the way it looks!
An unexpected benefit of this blush is that it contains argon oil and Vitamin E - woo!
I tend to just swirl my Real Techniques Multi Task Brush or a fluffy angled blush brush into all three shades and apply the gorgeous soft pink shade. You could definitely use a smaller brush and use one of the three shades individually if you prefer, but you've got to be careful as the blush is quite small.

To be completely honest, it's the packaging that actually drew me to the blush in the first place. The gunmetal finish with the 'KK' logo engraved on the top, as well as being embossed on the actual blush, just looks amazing. The magnetic closure is just so satisfying and the mirror inside is actually good enough to apply my makeup with!
I only picked up one shade after it was released as there weren't many photos of it all on the internet and they hadn't released in my local store yet, but I know I'm going to visit the store soon and pick up some more shades after swatching! This blush is fast becoming one of my favourite products of all time and I just need more!
