As old and well-known as these are (they been on the market since 1863), I've long had an aversion to these because one of my first blushes was a Bourjois' Little Round Pot. Reviews at the time praised it and there weren't that many drugstore blushes sold here, so I picked a shade that didn't even remotely suit me called Ambre d'Or (an apricot shade) and my experience with it was simply terrible. Now I know why that was, it's because I didn't have any brushes yet and the mini one that's added to the blush
These swatch simply gorgeous with a finger, especially this shade and Rose Frisson because they have that shimmery glow I adore. However, once I tried it with a brush at home, I was again disappointed by its pigmentation - initially. It definitely needs a lot of building up and a dense brush, but once you layer it enough, the result is beautiful. This shade creates as pink flush for that "English rose look". It's the pinkest blush that was on the stand, though we don't have all the shades here, but I think
This is one of most long lasting formulas on the cheeks - probably not surprisingly considering it has to be heavily layered.
