@Jellycats4life Doh I didn’t realised it was a cream blusher it looked like a powder when I looked at it.

Haha, I genuinely thought it was a powder at first too! It was only when I touched it that I realised it was a cream 😄

Orangeslemon · 09/12/2023 18:08

I’ve been using this blusher regularly since September and I love it! Funny how the colour looks lovely on my cheeks but awful on my lips though.

The compact is refillable (just push a safety pin through one of the holes underneath to get the blush out) and you can buy can buy other shades for £14 which I don’t think is too bad. Sadly the refills don’t seem to be stocked on Liberty online but they’re available in lots of other places.

AppleDumplingWithCustard · 09/12/2023 21:07

Pleased with this. I’ve just changed to cream blusher as powder wasn’t doing me any favours now I’m maturing like a fine wine. 😂

Yeknom · 09/12/2023 21:51

Glad I wasn't the only guy me who thought it was a powder, I went in gung-ho with my blusher brush 🙈

I already have today’s item from a beauty drop back in 2022. It was the BD with the CBD oil in which I loved, so I bought 5 boxes off eBay. So I now have my 7th one of these 😂

Bimblesalong · 10/12/2023 08:23

A handy travel item and smells better than I had imagined 🤣

Zoetrope1 · 10/12/2023 08:45

Smells gorgeous!

PomsRun · 10/12/2023 08:51

Keen to try this. Last 4 doors have been a bit so so for me but appreciate won’t be wowed every day.
loved serum, bracelet etc

listsandbudgets · 10/12/2023 09:14

I am a bit disappointed today but only because i've got a mountain of soap already. Still looking forward to trying it though but given the huge heap it may be 2025 before i get to it 😂

surprised they put such a small item in such a large.drawer

QueefofSheena · 10/12/2023 09:30

I've never mastered the knack of my soaps not turning to mush so I'm not delighted with today's item. It will get used by someone in the house though.

I wasn't sure the blusher from yesterday was my colour, but reading the comments I'm excited to try it. I've just started a new rose gold cream one from an AC last year, which won't be suitable after the festive season, so it's one to look forward to in January.

BIossomtoes · 10/12/2023 09:49

Get a soap dish @QueefofSheena. No more mushy soap.

Hadenough2022 · 10/12/2023 10:12

I was excited when I saw it was a bigger drawer not so excited when I saw the soap.

Jellycats4life · 10/12/2023 10:19

OK, this is a bit blah but you can’t win every day.

I use bar soap a lot (my hands don’t like liquid soap too much) but I don’t like this fragrance. I got a roll on in last year’s Cult Beauty AC and gave it straight to my husband because I found it so masculine. And it doesn’t smell like rum to me!

pattyparsnip · 09/12/2023 12:14

Really like this blusher, I usually use Bobbi brown powder pink and I'm down to the pan so this is a great replacement.

I've literally just bought my first ever cream blusher which is bobbi brown powder pink and love it so this should be good for me too - nice one to keep in handbag with the mirror. Not sure about it on my lips though has come out v pale

imp2007 · 10/12/2023 10:23

Pleased with today's not the most exciting but I like this brand and love a good bar soap so will def get used.

Gnomegnomegnome · 10/12/2023 10:31

I like bar soap so happy to have a new one (although I have 6 to use up first).

SarahC50 · 10/12/2023 10:34

First disappointing drawer today for me. Going in DD stocking. Loving yesterday's blusher a little goes a long way x

wizzywig · 10/12/2023 10:39

Meh to today's soap .

Growlybear83 · 10/12/2023 10:45

I'm a bit disappointed with this one drawer too.

wizzywig · 10/12/2023 10:49

Although the reviews on space nk are good. So will give it a ago

I need to invest in soap dishes. Still haven’t cracked open the one that came with the beauty drop.

I’m sure I’ve never had this in a beauty drop! I had the one with the CBD oil as well.

I do think they could’ve given us the full size for this one – it’s £14 for 140g and we got 50g.

Sadly I still manage to create a mush with a soap dish, I've no idea how I do it 🤯

LadyHester · 10/12/2023 11:36

Yup, into DS’s stocking with this one.

countdowntonap · 10/12/2023 11:55

@Orangeslemon I’ve just checked and I opened the wrong drawer this morning - did it in the dark as didn’t want to wake DH.
Now I actually have drawer 10 opened, have to say I love this! I use a few products from this brand and haven’t tried their soap yet.

@LittleBearPad is it the Granada Bossa soap that you haven’t opened yet? If so, it’s incredible! I purchased the perfume after my first use
of the soap as it smells so great!
