Wilko Premium Blusher Brush


I recently posted a blog post of wilkinsons premium stippler brush, boasting how amazing the affordable new collection was, showcased via the stippler brush. Therefore, leading me to purchase the blusher brush from the same collection. 

Wilko Premimum Blusher Brush RRP £3.00


If you have seen my previous post regarding the stippler brush then you will recognise the design to be identical to the stippler brush, highly expected being from the same collection!

Wilkinsons have really out done themeselves recently with their make up department, the stores now have a bigger selection of big brands such as Rimmel London and Maybelline but perhaps more exciting is there own brand accessories, i.e. Their Premimum brushes. 


This particular brush is made of 100% synthetic hair, the handle is plastic; mostly matte black but it has a beautiful rose gold plated top holding the soft luxurious brush bristles itself. A lovely classy design, although I do have my reservations on how long the handle will hold up. The brush itself comes in a very useful travel case, which I personally use to keep my brush in whilst not in use. 


The application is just as pleasing, I have used it for both blush and bronzer, preferring its application for bronzer far more. Not only does it feel soft and velvety on the skin but it applies and blends evenly, leaving the skin looking naturally sun kissed. 

Now let's talk about the most exciting element of this brush, the price! At only £3.00 this brush is almost essential for any make up collector. It is great quality, gives great results and only entices you to purchase more from the collection. 

Once again, well done Wilkinsons. The new Premimum range is not only taking me by surprise but making me want to sell it myself. I certainly hope they will be looking to extend the range further in the near future.

Wilko Premium Stipler Found Brush

Have I got a discovery for you ........

Anyone that has been in Wilkinsons recently would have noticed the fresh look they have adopted, therefore, subsequently the new products they now have to offer; specifically in relation to the health and beauty department.

I was in the shop for a total of 40 seconds before I almost ran to the new premium brushes;

Wilko Premium Stipler Found Brush, RRP £4.00


The first thing that I was immediately drawn to was the new brushes that the store now offers, this includes a Stipler Brush - a little confusion as to the spelling as I have always known the brush spelling as Stippler, however it appears wilko on everything other than the outer packaging of the brush Spells it as Stipler. A spelling mistake I am sure, but forget that and look at the brush:



The brush handle is of course a little cheap, it does feel like that after a moderate use the handle will fade, snap or simple fall apart. However, at a mere £4 I don't expect anyone to think it will last forever; although I am going to remain positive and hope it surprises me! The actual handle is plastic, with black and gold detail. So I am not a fan of the packaging, although the little pouch the brush comes in may be a blessing when it comes to travelling....

The most important part of this brush is of course the bristles, made from 100% synthetic hair, it is soft, full and actually appears to be very durable indeed. I have also read many reviews on this brush claiming it to be in the very same state as purchase after several washes, simply incredible.

Apart from the cheap design and poor spelling errors, this brush really is a beauty to have in your collection. It is not only very very affordable but it works just as well as the top brands equivalent. I will be sure to be purchasing the whole range of Wilko's premium brushes asap. Well done Wilko, bringing affordability and quality into one.

Now, go get your brushes ladies!

Bronze Glow Mosaic



Collection Bronze Glow Mosaic Radiant 2, 15g - £2.99

I love a good bronzer and at £2.99 this one is irresistible to merely try let alone fall in love with - and let me assure you, if your looking for a pretty summer contour (not heavy) then this super affordable bronzer does not disappoint.

As you can see from the bottom left picture the bronzer is a shimmery powder formula discreet but noticeable on reflection. The collection website defines the bronzer as;

"Multi-tonal bronzing powder with     natural sheen for a year-round glow."

I could not agree more, since receiving this product I have used it every day, a new essential for my make up bag! I use it to contour my cheeks and jaw line - I have received so many compliments since my first application on the healthy summer time glow I have every day and honestly it is all thanks to this bronzer. 

Highly recommend, girls if you don't own this then run to the stores now. This is without a doubt a fantastic affordable daily bronzer - subtle but effective, just what us ladies need for the summer.
