New Look's Almost Dupe for NARS Deep Throat

When I first started blogging I used to showcase high street dupes fairly frequently but as the months

have passed it has fell by the wayside but I think it is a feature that needs to be resurrected

and what better place to start than a budget dupe for a rather naughtily titled NARS blush?

A few months ago Kelly Brook and New Look teamed up to create a smallish make-up collection

which is still available in store, on the whole I found  the collection a little bland but of you look

closely there are some lovely products: the blush I am about to show you and there is also a wonderful

black holographic glitter nail polish, sadly New Look do not give their cosmetic items any shade

names so blogging about them is not the easiest task!

One thing I do want to commend Kelly Brook and New Look for is the cute, retro packaging,

it is well thought out and although the blush does come with a poor quality brush (very scratchy)

the compact does feature a great sized and quality mirror...you win some, you loose some.

The shade I have is a light, yellowed pink (how cute is the bow imprint in the center?) that has a shimmer finish and as the title of this post suggests is close is shade to NARS Deep Throat.

So what are the main differences between the two products prize aside?

Well despite appearing identical in the pan the Kelly Broke Blush has a stronger pink undertone,

is more matte in finish and is surprisingly the most pigmented out of the two.

In swatch form they do look a little different but once blended out on the face
I find them to give a similar effect but sadly they look closer in shade in pan form than they do applied.

Not bad for a blush that costs less than £3!

The Kelly Brook Blush* isn't available online at the moment but can be found in most New Look stores.
