Zoeva Rose Golden Blush Palette

I'm sure you've all seen, and fallen in love with the 'rose gold' trend that's been circulating the scene for quite a while, and doesn't seem to be shooting off anytime soon, (luckily!). Brands are pulling at our heart-strings, (and purse strings), by launching products coated in rose gold left right and centre. Zoeva is a brand that does the trend particularly well, previously launching brush lines with rose gold finishes and matching metallic pouches. Now they're back with 'Rose Golden Volume 3', which consists of a luxurious rose gold brush set, (with the killer price tag of £75!!), and a more purse-friendly blush palette! 

The palette contains a rose-gold blusher, or blush topper, a stunning white highlighter with gold reflects, and a classic cool-toned taupe contour shade. 

From the swatch, and from the initial look at the pan, the blusher didn't look like something I would use on my cheeks, as glittery cheek products tend to emphasise flaws I'd rather not draw attention to! However, after thinking 'why the hell not!', I tried it out and was absolutely stunned! For something that is incredibly glittery to swatch, it comes off on the cheeks as a gorgeous sheen, and no glitter chunks at all! The shade on my skin tone is a very warm, deep peach shade.

The highlighter is so so pigmented. Literally, I just dab my brush into the pan and sweep it along the top of my cheekbones and I'm good to go! Although it looks a flat white in the pan, it has a stunning iridescence to it, and has warm gold reflects, complimenting the coolness of the white beautifully.

As for the contour shade, in the pan, it looks like my dream shade, and it really is on the skin too! However, it's slightly tougher to grab the product onto your brush. I'm not sure why, but it's very gritty to begin with, and I feel like I have to scrub at the pan to really get it going. Once applied, it does look beautiful, and creates the most natural shadow. Surprisingly, this hasn't put me off and I still adore this palette, contour shade included. 

You can purchase this palette from www.beautybay.com for £13! I personally think that's an amazing price, especially for such a quality product.. (Plus the packaging is pretty fabulous too!).
