Name of product: Origins – Pinch Your Cheeks

Price: £12

The blurb: “Were you caught munching cookies at midnight? Is that a new beau you’ve got? Or do you know something we don’t? That’s the way you’ll look with this gentle cheek colour. It gives a radiant, rosy glow that never looks red-in-the-face. Looks like nature made you blush when all along Origins did”

First impressions: The presentation is lovely and the packaging has a simple organic look

Ease of Use: The packaging is simple and sleek and the small box contains a 3ml tube that is enough to make you blush! The instructions are easy to follow and the product is very easy to apply

Pros: This tiny tube of really is enough to make you blush, it adds an instant blush to the cheeks when applied using a fingertip and manages to add that English rose look to tired cheeks. The product is incredibly easy to blend using a finger and gives a subtle yet noticeable glow. I found that the product did not fade during the day and certainly did not come off during any outfit changes. It was wonderful to have that healthy, fresh faced look all day long (smirk)

Cons: The only con associated with this product is that it does state that you need to wash your hands immediately after use, and it is necessary, as when I neglected this instruction I did end up with a slightly rosy finger. Keeping this in mind it may not be the product for those who are trained in applying their makeup on the go

Value for money: You need a tiny amount of the product to have the desired effect and I am sure that is product will last for a long time, a great addition to any makeup bag!

Dulwichmum verdict:
