3 Bourjois Buys
12:00
Bourjois ColourBoost Lip Crayon - Peach On The Beach, Bourjois ColorBand 2-In-1 Eyeshadow & Liner - Brun Dadaiste, Bourjois 12 Hour Aqua Blush - Inge-Nude
On a recent browse through Superdrug, mainly to kill some time while waiting for the train, I found myself drawn to the Bourjois stand because they were holding a 3 for 2 offer and I just couldn't resist. I decided to pick up the lip crayon and the eye crayon because I've been meaning to get them for ages, but I just picked up the blush on a whim because it was new in.
This is probably the most popular shade from the collection and rightly so. The gorgeous peachy pink lip crayon looks gorgeous on the lips as it adds an instant, fresh hit of colour but without being too overpowering on in your face. The finish isn't matte nor glossy, it's more of a lacquer like finish which is perfect for Summer. I can even see me wearing this whenever the colder weather starts to creep in again, I just love it that much.
I can't get enough of these 2-In-1 pencils as they are perfect for both eyeshadow and eyeliner. They glide on to the eye with ease and no tugging or irritating the eye is necessary due to the creamy formulation. As an eyeshadow, they are perfect as a one sweep wonder, I just glide a little bit on to my eyelid and blend it out with a fluffy brush. I also have the shade 'Beige Minimal', but I have my eye on 'Rose Fauviste' next as it's just a pretty pink/rose gold shade.
Unfortunately whenever I got this, my pump didn't work, it just didn't bring out any product at all no matter how many times I tried to unblock it. However I was able to unscrew the lid and dab some product out of the tube. Packaging flaw aside, the actual product is lovely. The gel like consistency makes the peachy nude blush appear fresh and dewy on the skin which means it's perfect for this time of year. They certainly are a big hit this year, it was just my bad luck that I got a dodgy one.

It was just my luck, haha! Thank you! :)
DeleteI really need to get more shades in the Colour Boost - such a nice formula! I didn't get on so well with the eyeshadow sticks as I found them too dry to blend in very easily :( I'm really intrigued by the gel blush concept though xx
ReplyDeleteJasmine Talks Beauty
Likewise, I love them! :) I found that I had to blend them straight away or else they dried in really quickly, but then they don't budge all day!
DeleteI love the lip crayon in peach on the beach, wore it basically everyday on my holiday! And I really want to try the eyeshadow sticks, they look beautiful :) xx

DeleteI really love the look of the lip crayon, it's a really pretty shade. I also love lip products that a easy to wear and are low maintenance, and it totally looks like it would be that as well. Tempted to pick one up!
ReplyDeleteThe Velvet Black // UK Style & Beauty Blog
A peachy pink lip is always my go-to shade! Definitely give it a go Alice! :)
DeleteI also have purchased three things from bourjois as Boots had a 3 for 2 and you also could pick up a free pair of sunglasses. I also purchased really similar products to you! I bought the colour band eye crayon in the same shade as you as I love a bronze, gold eye and I also purchased the same blush as it was new and got the shade 03. My finale purchase from their was one of their lip-glosses in a pinky colour!:)
