Hi loves!
I don't know about you guys, but I am a sucker for cute, girly things that pertain to just about any holiday imaginable. I have no idea why, and I think it started way back when I little, but I always feel the need to have these "limited edition" holiday items! Apply that need to my already raging obsession with beauty products and it can be quite intense! :) Lol! Holidays like Christmas, and Valentines Day are the easier ones for me to get sucked into, and this year is no exception!
I recently came across this adorable little set by Laura Geller called the Baked with Love Collection! I've had a few items from the line on my wish list, so I thought this was a great time to try a few out! The price was definitely right for this set! Only $25 for three full size products!! The blush on it's own sells for $27, the baked highlight sells for $24, and the lip crayon sells for $16! I know... CRAZY good deal! That's WAY more than half off! I almost can't believe it!
The Blush-n-Brighten Baked Cheek Color is in the shade Pink Grapefruit! It was basically love at first swatch for me! Totally obsessed and was the deciding factor in me purchasing this set! I love the soft pink shade and the swirls of highlight throughout it. It goes on so beautifully and gives the most natural looking pinky/bronzey look to your cheeks while also making you appear to be glowing from within! It's just stunning!
The French Vanilla Baked Highlighter was actually the product that I was after all along! I've been dying to try this since hearing so many people rave about it! And let me tell you, it does not disappoint one bit! The shade is literally vanilla... that is the best description! It gives a beautiful, glowy highlight! I like to use this on my brow bones, cupids bow, center of my nose and cheek bones! It's soft and smooth, not chalky at all, and it just makes you look wide awake! I absolutely love it!
The Love Me Dew Lip Crayon is in the shade Watermelon Cooler. This shade screams Valentines Day to me! It's a bright pink that makes your lips look like you just ate a popsicle! For me, the shade is a little too pink (just not my favorite lip color) and seems a bit summery, but some of you might absolutely love it! I really do love the formula of the Lip Crayon though! It applies super smoothly and feels very hydrating! The moisture lasted quite a while, but since the pigment really sheers out, I felt that the color wore off pretty quickly (especially when eating and drinking). It's not a terrible product, but it definitely wasn't a star of this set for me!
Overall I think this is a not only a great value, but the products are really amazing quality as well! The blush and highlighter were the stand outs for me, while the lip crayon, wasn't exactly my favorite! Two out of three isn't too shabby in my opinion! Trying this set has really peaked my interest in the Laura Geller brand as a whole and I definitely plan to check out more! I also love the Valentine's Day feel of this set! It is so cute and girly, but definitely in a more grown up way! So, Men, (if there are any of you out there reading my girly blog), this set makes a great gift for the special woman in your life (along with some flowers or chocolates of course)! And girls, don't feel shy about dropping this one as a hint to your guys (leave it up on the computer screen, post it to Instagram, talk about it non stop... you get the idea) ! :) LOL!
Hope you enjoyed this review! As always thanks for reading!

Ps. My mom also picked up this set after seeing mine and loving it! So, I should also mention that this would make a great gift idea for Mom as well! Don't forget to show her how much you appreciate and love her too! ♥
