Illamasqua Beg - review and swatches

A while ago I won a give away over at Charlotte's lovely blog, the prize was an Illamasqua blush of my choice! I had never owned any Illamasqua product before so was ecstatic and spent a decent amount of time umm-ing and ahh-ing over which colour. I eventually settled on Beg as it seemed like quite a safe but still lovely colour to go for. 

This blusher is so so soft and pigmented that I really only need to lightly dab my brush in it to pick up enough product. It blends flawlessly and I think it works so well as a slightly contour-y blush. My only gripe is that the packaging is a magnet for sticky fingerprint marks!  I cannot thank Charlotte enough for introducing me to Illamasqua blushes and I cannot wait for my collection to grow.
