Attention all blush addicts! If cheek products are your weakness, then you’ll definitely want to get your hands on this adorable limited edition palette from Benefit. As a blush hoarder myself, I could not resist the urge to give this set a try. It’s been quite a few years since I purchased a Benefit blush, but this palette reminded me that they definitely live up to their hype!
Retailing for $58 at Sephora, Macy’s, and ULTA, this gorgeous palette comes packed with five of Benefit’s best selling cheek products. Included is, Dandelion, Hoola, Rockateur, Dallas, and Coralista. Each shade is full size, making this a $145 value. If you’ve been lusting after Benefit boxed blushes, you must get your hands on this!
The sleek palette includes a large mirror, and a full size blush brush. The blushes can also be removed, making the box perfect for storing jewelry, crafts, makeup, or hair ties.
DANDELION
Dandelion is described as a soft baby pink. It’s perfect for days when you want a natural flushed look, or for layering on top of another (more intense) blush. The texture is smooth, the pigmentation is light (but buildable), and it blends nicely on the cheeks. It’s not chalky or dusty, and it’s a great choice for you porcelain skinned beauties.
HOOLA
This is cult-classic matte bronzer is well known in the beauty community, and for good reason. It’s one of the most intense, pigmented, natural tan looking bronzers on the market. If you’re fair, you’ll want to use a light hand, if you’re medium to dark, you can get away with wearing a bit more. It’s great for all over bronzing, or contouring the cheek bones. It has red undertones, not orange, so it gives the skin a just left the beach kind of look. I was a loyal user of this bronzer for years, and I’m happy to have another in my collection!
ROCKATEUR
Rockateur is one of my favorite blushes! This stunning rose gold not only looks gorgeous in the pan and on the cheeks, but it smells beautiful too. It leaves behind a luminous sheen on the cheeks, and it wears wonderfully on its own or paired with a bronzer. The texture is creamy, the pigmentation is spot on, and it’s a breeze to blend. I love it!
DALLAS
Despite the massive popularity of Dallas, I had never owned it prior to purchasing this palette. It’s described as a dusty rose, and depending on your skin tone, it can be worn as either a blush or bronzer. Like the others, it has great color payoff and the formula is easy to work with. If you’re a fan of NARS Douceur, you’ll love Dallas. It gives the appearance of a natural looking glow, and it’s easier to wear than Hoola, since it’s not as dark and intense.
CORALISTA
The last shade in this set is another cult-favorite. Like its name suggests, this blush is a gorgeous coral that looks flattering on so many skin tones. It has a slight sheen, so it also doubles as a highlight. The texture is creamy, the pigmentation is bold, and it pairs beautifully with Hoola for a summer time glow.

OVERALL THOUGHTS
This is a must have for blush lovers! I actually had none of these in my collection when I splurged on this, so it was a great way to build my Benefit stash, without spending a crazy amount of money. The box is adorable, the blushes are full size, and their quality was not compromised despite it’s price tag. I highly suggest getting your hands on this, before it’s gone for good!
Have you tried this box set? I’d love to hear your thoughts!

So glad you like it! 🙂
Such lovely, wearable shades. I’d love this palette!
Very wearable!
This is a great way to get the most popular Benefit blushes. I know I don’t look good in Hoola but I could make the others work.
Hoola is great for summer, but winter…it’s tough for me to get away with lol
I actually like ALL THE shades! And the packaging is so adorable as always!
Benefit always has the cutest packaging, right?!
I love Benefit’s box powders. Rockateur is my all time fave, of the collection.
Not a blush fanatic but these look beautiful!
I am a blush and highlight addict so I love that benefit came out with this. It’s a great deal. I have anothe rpalette from 2 years ago that Benefit released that has blushes, a bronzer and a cream highlight and I love it. I had been waiting for benefit to do something like this. I didn’t splurge on it, though I think it’s worth it – because I already have the other one. But, if I run out – I hope Benefit makes this a permanent thing.
