Benefit Dandelion Twinkle

Dandelion Twinkle is the beautiful new powder highlighter from Benefit.

Perfect for those of us who want to glow delicately, this gorgeous nude-pink, superfine powder offers just a hint of a twinkle.

The super soft, dandy daydream scented lovely creates a radiant complexion with just the sweep of a brush.

It is so light in texture that you can’t feel you’re wearing it and its shade is subtle enough to be used with your favourite blush or alternatively it can be used alone.

I’m not usually a huge fan of ‘twinkly’, ‘glittery’ products but Dandelion Twinkle is just soft and fine enough to slip through my net.

It is great for daytime looks when stronger, more iridescent highlighters might be a tad OTT, but don’t get me wrong, you can really notice a difference when wearing it.

I pop some on my brow bones and along my cheek bones and it makes my skin come alive, offers come definition to my face and improves the appearance of my complexion.

It’s ever such a pretty product!

Benefit Dandelion Twinkle is available now from asos and costs £24.50.

Benefit Rockateur Blush

When it comes to Benefit’s blusher boxes, they can generally do no wrong in my eyes.

Cute, versatile and in a range of shades that suit any skin tone, they are the staple in my make up cabinet.

This August 22^nd see the newest Benefit blush launch and that blush is the cutely named Rockateur.

This pretty, rose gold, shimmery blush is unquestionably, gorgeous to look at.

The embossing on the powder is extremely cute- It’s one of those where you almost don’t wasn’t to use it for fear of ruining its prettiness!

But it’s there to be used so that’s what I did!

When swatched the colour wasn’t quite as I expected, I found it to be more of a pale peachy shade than a true pink, but pretty none the less.

Rockateur Swatched

If I’m honest, I really didn’t love the shimmer of this blush, but then you all know my feelings on shimmery face products, mainly that they are a big no no for an oily skinned girl like me whose skin produces enough ‘shimmer’ by itself, so that was a bit of turn off for me.

Rockateur Swatched

Now, you may notice there appears to be somewhat less of this blush than in the other traditional boxes. That would be because there is.

Rockateur is only 5g as opposed to the regular 7 or 8, which I found a little disappointing as at £18.50 you are paying a lot of money for what is essentially a small amount of product.

That said, if you are the kind of girl who loves a bit of shimmer and enjoys the feeling of pure softness when applying her blusher, then Rockateur is for you.

Benefit’s Rockateur is available from August 22^nd. Check it out HERE.
