Every princess needs a decent arsenal of vanity-worthy prettiness.
If you are that type of girl, you need some Jill Stuart in your life! I don't understand why American cosmetic companies don't put much thought into developing a product that *looks* nice...I guess it's all about makeup-on-the-go or the whole fast food mentality or whatnot.
Jill Stuart Mix Blush Review
*Milky Strawberry*
Milky Strawberry is the newest blush in the Mix Blush series launched in the Spring Collection for 2011, Innocent Sexy.
Official description
"sweet and fluffy milky pink, reminiscent of strawberry milk"
It being a brand new release, I went on pure chance, hoping the color would suit my skintone.
Like all Jill Stuart cosmetics, the compacts are princess-y and ornate albeit plastic. The little goat hair brush is attached on a metal-link chain but can be removed. The brush is retractable with a pink crystal tab!

The blush itself with and without flash
The upper left corner is a pearly light pink highlighter, the upper right corner, a dusty rose. The bottom two colors are my favorite and add a nice punch to the entire palette - the lower left is hot pink fuchsia and the lower right is a bright pinky peach

*Also sporting Jill Stuart Jelly Eye Color N in Jewel Flash, a gorgeous shimmery light purple*
Like the collection's namesake, it really gives you an innocent pink flush of color on the cheeks - I think the peachy pink made it wearable on my Texas-tanned complexion! The shimmer is sophisticated and subtle - a great everyday blush! I was surprised that it showed up so well and am dying to try out Little Bouquet for a more peachy Summer blush.
The product is scented - a very light, pretty floral that is not at all overbearing
Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥ (5/5)
If it weren't for the hefty price tag, I would own them all!!!

On a side note, I saw the color OPI's Italian Love Affair on a co-worker and now am on a mission to purchase and share. It is the perfect dolly pearl pink! Will share soon :)
Hope you all are having a good week - very excited to meet up with fellow bloggers this weekend!!!
