'I found the perfect 'blonzing' product for summer that rivals rhode'
Popular beauty brand REFY is one of our favourites over here at the Mirror. From the popular Lip Sculpt to the Lash Sculpt mascara (loved by Molly-Mae by the way) and my personal favourite, the Brow Tint, Refy products never miss.
And the brand has just extended its Cream Blush range with two new shades that are perfect for summer. The shades included are Rust, a deep, warm-toned burnt orange and Plum, a cool-toned deep berry.
Thanks to Hailey Bieber sparking the berry-toned make-up trend, and her popular Toasted Teddy Pocket Blush from rhode, we're not surprised to see that orange and burgundy blush shades are on the rise.
I'm a huge fan of orange and brown toned blushers that give that popular 'blonzed' or sunburnt look so I was so excited to see that REFY had launched these new shades.
Refy Rust Cream Blush Review
What I love most about REFY blushes is the smooth, buildable texture that melts into the skin and creates that natural sun-kissed flush, and this new Rust shade is no exception. I hate cream blushes that require you to work really hard with the formula, and luckily this blush is quite literally fool-proof. It glides efffortlessly onto the skin, especially when using the Refy Duo Brush to apply it.
And priced at £16, it's a really wallet-friendly blush that only requries a little bit each time you use it.
Creating that beautiful 'sunburnt' blush look that I aim for everytime I do my make-up, and this blush is really the shade of the summer. Although I've not personally tested out rhode's Toasted Teddy, it has that similar burnt terracotta tone that's so popular at the moment.
I'm not the only fan of these cream blushes with Molly Mae raving about the shade Malaya. This is a cool dusty pink with neutral undertones, perfect if you like using a pink blush that's not overly bubblegum or coral pink and has more of a mauve-y depth to the shade.
A few of my other favourite blushes that have that similar bronze-y feel includes the Morphe Cheek Thrills Multi Finish Face Trio Palette, a fairly new product but already a staple in my make-up bag and priced at £19. Plus the Nudestix Nudies All Over Face Matte Bronze, priced at £31.50, which I used as a blush rather than a bronzer.

Scottish Love Is Blind UK star faces backlash from co-stars after U-turn
Netflix's hit dating show is back for a second season, and one Scottish cast member has already been questioned by their co-stars. *This article contains spoilers for the first four episodes of Love Is Blind UK season 2.* The much-loved dating programme, Love Is Blind UK, has returned for its second series, introducing a fresh batch of single hopefuls to the pods in their quest for enduring love. The Netflix reality show features contestants prepared to meet their potential life partners and get engaged, all without laying eyes on each other beforehand. In this series, Netflix viewers can anticipate a whirlwind of unexpected twists, tears and complicated love triangles, with one contestant in particular drawing criticism from their peers for 'changing their mind in just 24 hours'. 31 year old Nanny and makeup artist Katisha, originally from Dumfries in Scotland, found herself in a tricky situation when she captured the hearts of 30 year old financial analyst Demola and 28 year old health coach Javen. Katisha, who has been single for six years and started feeling unfortunate in love, is ready to connect with "the right type of men" in her search for a future husband. In the pods, she formed strong bonds with both Javen and Demola, leaving her uncertain about who to choose, reports the Mirror. Ultimately, her decision left one participant 'blindsided' in episode 4, fittingly titled 'She Changed Her Mind Overnight'. Initially, Katisha pledged her commitment to Demola when he expressed his desire to progress their relationship, but her attention was swayed by Javen during their next pod encounter. This sparked some drama, as she subsequently turned down Demola's proposal, leaving numerous cast members stunned after he revealed that she wanted an exclusive relationship with him. When Katisha chose to accept Javen's proposal instead, Demola's mate Kal was particularly miffed. Watch Love is Blind UK on Netflix for free with Sky from £15 Sky Get the deal here Product Description He revealed to the cameras: "To see Katisha and Javen together has not really sunk in yet. I do feel bad for Demola and it was a big shock to me when he came back and said that she'd gone for Jav. "I just want to know her side of things, because the jury is still out on whether Katisha's made the right choice or not." When he challenged Katisha about her choice, he queried: "It's weird that Demola thought it was him and Javen thought it wasn't him. "Yeah I didn't take it lightly," she replied. "That wasn't what it was like at all and it was really tough. "It wasn't anything against him," she continued, as tensions escalated between them and Kal butted in: "Yeah, he never did anything wrong... At all. What made you go the other way?" Katisha then responded: "For me it was more that my connection with Javen was stronger so that's just what it came down to. "I definitely made the right choice. Happy with that, are you?" she concluded with an annoyed chuckle before the episode faded to black. Has Katisha made the correct decision? Keep watching to find out. Love Is Blind UK season 2, episodes 1-4 are now available to stream on Netflix.

Expert makes bombshell Diana claim about Prince Harry and William's ongoing feud
Princess Diana would have been "a peacemaker" and ended the "cold war" between her two sons Prince William and Prince Harry, a royal biographer has claimed A royal biographer has suggested that Princess Diana would have played the role of a "peacemaker" amidst the ongoing feud between Prince William and Prince Harry. Andrew Morton, renowned for his documentation of the late Princess of Wales' life, claims that the continuing tension between Diana's sons is a "great loss for the monarchy", as he states that she would have 'put an end to the cold war' between the princes. Despite their lack of communication following years of public criticism from the Sussexes, both William and Harry continue to honour their late mother's legacy through various charitable endeavours, as they gear up to commemorate the 28th anniversary of Diana's death. This follows Prince Harry's recent admission that he still considers himself part of the Royal Family. When Princess Diana tragically passed away on August 31, 1997, William and Harry, then aged 15 and 12 respectively, were united in their sorrow. Fast forward to the present day, and the brothers couldn't be more distant, but Royal biographer Andrew Morton believes that Diana would have been instrumental in building bridges, reports the Mirror. Speaking to People, he said: "Diana always used to say she had two boys for a reason - the younger would be there to support the older in the lonely task as future King. There is no doubt Diana would have tried to act as a peacemaker between them. If she had been around, they would have worked things out in a different way." He added: "We all remember the days when Harry and William were joshing with one another, and it all seemed set for their relationship and the future - that Harry, as Diana always used to say, would be William's wingman. It's a great loss for the monarchy." Relations between William and Harry deteriorated in 2020 when Harry and wife Meghan Markle stepped back from royal duties and moved to California. The divide only widened following the Sussexes' 2021 sit-down with Oprah Winfrey and Harry's 2023 tell-all book Spare, both of which took aim at senior members of 'the Firm'. According to Andrew Morton: "Things were said that sparked the initial rift, and it's never healed." Harry himself reflected this view during a BBC interview in May, stating: "Some members of my family will never forgive me." Harry has been vocal about his desire for reconciliation with his relatives. Speculation about a potential peace deal emerged last month when senior advisers to both Harry and King Charles were seen at a London meeting, though William's team were reportedly excluded from the gathering. Insiders have suggested that Harry's phone calls and texts to William have been ignored, with Robert Lacey, author of Battle of Brothers, explaining: "They both deeply believe that they're fighting for profound points of principle." Whilst a royal reunion remains elusive, countless supporters continue to wish for the brothers to make amends, with many believing it would honour Diana's memory. A source close to the Royal household expressed: "This is the sadness of it - they aren't supporting each other like they should be. That's what any mother would want - that they are there for each other." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Scottish Love is Blind UK star sends urgent message to fans as season 2 drops on Netflix
Katisha has shared an important message to Love Is Blind UK fans A Love is Blind UK contestant has made an urgent appeal to viewers as the highly anticipated second season returns to screens. The fresh season of Love Is Blind UK launches on Netflix today, Wednesday, August 13 following last year's triumph. A completely new batch of singletons are entering the experiment hoping to discover their ideal partner. However, there's a catch - isolated in individual pods, participants must forge emotional bonds without any face-to-face contact. Only after getting engaged and committing to progress their romance will they finally meet before moving in together and planning their wedding, reports the Mirror. As the programme broadcasts, one participant has made an urgent appeal asking viewers to be "mindful". Scottish contestant Katisha is the oldest of seven siblings and has remained single for over six years. Describing herself as "eternally unlucky in love", the 31 year old is determined to find romance with someone prepared to commit. Katisha has plenty of affection to offer and seeks a husband rather than just a boyfriend. Posting on her Instagram profile this week, Katisha revealed her time on the show has been "surreal". She posted: "2 DAYS TO GO UNTIL WE GO LIVE!!! Woke up this morning feeling SO excited but also a little nervous. "When I applied for @loveisblindnetflix never in a million years did I think I would be chosen to take part in the experiment! I'm a huge fan of the show and it's nuts that I've been lucky enough to visit the pods and be one of 30 singles given the opportunity to find love in an unorthodox way!!" Making an urgent appeal to viewers, she continued: "It's so surreal seeing it out there now when I've been sat on it for months. A quick PSA: "As you watch the show please be mindful as, as much as this is entertaining and it is a TV show this is still very much our lives!! It takes big balls to do something like this and I take my hats off to myself and all my cast mates for even just showing up. "I tried to keep true to myself and keep my mind and heart open throughout - as you've seen there's definitely been some vulnerability from me too. Kinda nervous for you to see this side of me actually. "Eeek! Can't wait to unpack it with you all! ! Are you ready to find out if love truly is blind???"
