Benefit Coralista Review

Hey all :)

Well first off if you were looking for swatches, my camera is broken for now but I just wanted to get a blog up so I had something on my blog. 



Ok so everyone knows Benefit is an expensive brand. I got my Coralista in the "Her Name Was Glowla" Christmas 2010 Special Edition set (reviews coming soon). And I personally am glad I didn't pay that for the blush on its own.

The quality of the blush is superb, it feels glossy even though its a powder (as opposed to chalky/dusty). It has a lovely fruity smell. On application, it doesn't settle into lines or pores, and goes on evenly. It leaves your skin feeling glossy and lasts a decent amount of time. The brush, although it gets alot of stick, I find is decent quality and it would be useful for on the go if you wanted, so you're not bringing a brush roll out and about with you.

So why would I not purchase again? It is not the right shade for me. I have light skin, with rosy undertones, so I would suit shades like Dandelion, when I wear this blush even when I try to apply it very very lightly, it makes me look embarased at best, sunburnt at worst.

This blush would look lovely on someone with medium toned skin, however if you are pale, I would consider Dandelion or maybe Thrrrob.

So overall for quality Iwould give 8.5/10 however for me personally I would give it a 3.5/10

Peace out
