-Pale pink pressed powder in 10g box.
-Not strickly a blusher as it's nowhere near pigmented enough. Although I do use it quite often to add just the smallest hint of colour. This is actually a brightening face powder so you use it all over your face, not just your cheeks. I use this all the time as it adds something to my makeup looks. You can build this as a blusher though if you are wuite pale, it's quite pretty. It does wear off a bit by the end of the day though, that's most noticable if you use it as a blusher.
-Throw away the brush that comes with it, it's useless.
I have medium, neutral- yellow toned complexion. This blush is subtle and does not give a lot of color on my skin tone. However for days I want to wear little makeup or look tired, it does give me a subtle pick me up glow. The only downside to this product is the cardboard type packaging. I don't like the brush that comes with it and prefer to use my own blush brush.
Pros: Cons:Price- higher compared to other blushes I have bought.
Is it weird that the first thing I noticed about this blush was the heavenly smell? lol. Anyway, it's the perfect product for those days when you're looking tired and you want to wake your face up without looking like you're wearing blush. It just makes your skin GLOW. And it lasts a long time. The only complaint I have is the packaging; really not digging the removable box top.
It was like 26 bucks too.... it came in a paper cardboard box along with a cheap little brush to apply it with... come on benefit if your loyal hardworking customers dish out almost 30 bucks on a damn blush please atleast find a cheap plastic compact to put it in ????!!!
to start with im an N5 ( or NW25)..... this really didnt show up that much.. i understand its a highlighter and not so much a blush but it did nothing for me.. not one even noticed it..
so i tried putting some more on, thinking i hadnt put on enough but then it gave me a very fake PINK color...
i think the only thing i like is the scent lol but other than that i'll probably give it away to my friend
Pros:nice scent the blush has ... smooth to apply.... Cons:doesnt do anything for me over rated... way too EXPENSIVE !! cheap box it comes in and cheap brush they add
This product can be used as blush or as all over face color. It's a
pink powder that I can be applied with a dusting fan brush or a blush
brush. This powder makes my face seem more awake. I use it mostly on
those days when I don't want to use too much make up and but do want my
face to look nice I also don't like the brush that it came with since
it too leaves marks on your face.
Benefit's Dandelion is the perfect pick me up for tired skin. A couple swipes of this on my cheek bones, forehead and chin, and my skin looks instantly brightened!!! For my cheek bones, I find that a swipe of Dandelion, with a touch of darker pink (Stila) on the apples of my cheeks adds the perfect punch of color. This is my second time purchasing, and I plan to repurchase again, and again.
Pros:Instantly brightens and highlights, container holds a larger amount of blush than other department store brands Cons:Packaging is cute, but is bulky and made of cardboard (may not be convenient for traveling,etc). Also, Dandelion may not show up on dark skin :(
omg, I LOVE dandelion. Although it is ment to be used as a "face brightener", I just use it as blush. Even if your skin looks kind of "blah" in the morning, a few swipes of dandelion, and you look radient. however, I have light skin and I've heard that people with darker skin have trouble with getting enough colour, so you should probably try the product first (as with all products). The box itself is kinda big and won't fit in teeny purses, but otherwise cute. although a bit on the expensive side (ok, on the REALLY expensive side), its totally worth it. also smells quite good.
Pros:the colour, the compliments from people who tell you your skin looks fabulous, smell Cons:expensive and the box is a bit big (but hey, that means more product, right?)
Review on: Benefit - Dandelion
Diane Sawyer wears this lovely pink highlighting powder to give herself an angelic appearance on TV. I use it to soak up my oily face and dab on as a really pretty pink blush! This is Benefit's #1 selling Fake-It product, been awarded many beauty awards for being the best blush. I agree! I really love the lightweight box it comes in, there's over a year's worth of blush in there and also a bamboo blush brush to boot! It has tiny reflecting particles, sort of gold colored, and it softens the appearance of the skin. I don't recommend this for people with red blotches or any sort of red on their face. Pink just adds more to the red!
Pros:Great free brush, lightweight, non-breakable compact. Cons:It sells out fast
Review on: Benefit - Dandelion
Dandelion is definately not for anyone without porcelain white skin. It is a light pink that doesn't show up at all! It literally did nothing for me no matter hiow much I used. Pretty color with cute packaging, but not for me!
Review on: Benefit - Dandelion
Some people use them as blush, others, a highlighter. The boxes read: "an all over face brightener."
My Dandelion story:
When my best friend came down from Dallas to help us move, she had fun with this product, showing me how to use it as a highlighter (I was kind of clueless as you where exactly to use a highlighter, but it sounded like a nice idea). I was afraid, at this point, that I had been very wrong to dust it lightly, all over my face, when she showed me the particular areas of my face to highlight.
The next day, my best friend and I wandered into Foley's, where we happened upon a BeneFit counter. The MA proceeded to use a powder brush to gently dust it over my friend's entire face. That's exactly how I had been applying it, so I was relieved to know that it could be used as an all-over face brightener powder, on days when I need a bit more "wake me up" than my translucent powder.
Some people are complaining that they aren't pigmented enough to use as a blush - but for people like me, who want a subtle brightness and not a full-blown blush, it's the miracle product that has made me a believer in BeneFit!
For reference: I am a coll-toned PPP, sometimes on the border of LLL. MAC NC15, with light brown hair and blue/grey eyes.
Pros:Beautiful pink flush - perfect for pale gals lik me who can't apply blush without looking like a clown! Cons:The price is a bit high, but considering it's the one big-high-end product I use regularly, I'd buy it on a regular basis.
