Benefit Cosmetics Silky-Soft Powder Blush

Most Helpful Positive Review

An Indispensable Part of My Daily Routine

I was skeptical about paying this much for a blush, but the color and smell were so pretty, and I was trying to upgrade my cosmetic purchases from the cheap stuff that was wrecking my skin, so I took the plunge. I am beyond glad that I did! Dandelion is the most gorgeous color; it looks good on ever...y skin tone I've tested it on, from my own very pale complexion to my best friend's lovely deep chocolate brown skin. It's beautifully subtle with one swipe and gives you a sweet apple-cheeked glow with two or three. Also, the gorgeous thing about Benefit is that, while their products will cost more than what you'll find at the local big box, a little of anything Benefit makes goes a long way. I've had this box of Dandelion for well over a year, and I use it every single day. It still looks just as beautiful, it still smells gorgeous and fresh, and I can't even begin to imagine when it will start to run out. Also, a note about the brush it comes with: I always tossed the brushes that came with my cheap blushes. They made the color look streaky and were just awful. And I very nearly tossed the brush that came with Dandelion, but I decided to test it first. Boy, am I glad I did! It's exactly the right width for swiping over cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead. Also, the bristles are super-soft. So give it a go! Dandelion was my first Benefit purchase, but it wasn't my last. This was the product that got me to ditch my old makeup for good in favor of Benefit's absolutely wonderful line. A must-have for any makeup bag!
