|Benefit| CORALista

Surreal Serene

I am really excited to share with you all my thoughts on the Benefit – CORALista Blusher!

I haven’t really bought many Benefit products, but I have purchased & loved their Dandelion Blusher in the past, a lovely light pink blusher. So I thought haaa, maybe CORAListaย will work just as well as Dandelion?!

The packaging wow’d me to be honest, if you know me pretty well, you’ll know I’m a sucker for anything leopard print & the print / graphics, the mirror & brush all add to the wow factor of this product! I mean it suits the theme of the face powder perfectly, aimed at setting a Tropical vibe, I definitely think the packaging sets of the tone for the product well!

With that being said, I also think the coral / pink colour for the face powder is subtle. I was worried that the coral would be intense, judging from the colour of the face powder in the pot, but the colour was lovely, and easy to build up if you wanted a more intense cheek colour!!! Even the smell of the powder smelt delicious, it draws you into the product, it has a lovely tropical smell to it, howwww tasty :D!!! I’d gladly inject a bit of Tropical delight onto my skin and through my nose buds :)!!!

Overall I love the texture, the subtle nature of the colour & the smell of this product, & think it’s worth the ยฃ23.50 price tag for the amount of product, the quality of the product and the features included; the mirror & the powder brush & would definitely recommend trialling this product for all skin tones, as it will definitely add a bit of Tropical ‘Rio’ vibe to your cheeks!!!

|| How to Apply ||

For the best application, I would use an Angeled Brush (used for contouring) & apply onto the apples of my cheeks upwards towards my hair line in upward motions for a lovely injection of colour onto your cheeks & then use the rest of the powder that’s left on the brush on my temples to add a bit of definition!!!

  4. I do love the packaging and colour but I think most benefit products are really over priced and mostly are the same quality as high street alternatives.

    1. I do agree with you lovely, I haven’t tried many Benefit products! I will check out your opinion on some highstreet blushers in comparison to these ๐Ÿ™‚ maybe I’ll find a nice dupe or 2! Thanks so much for the lovely comment, isn’t the colour just something else ๐Ÿ˜€ Xo

  5. Love the packaging ๐Ÿ™‚ So pretty, but perhaps not the easiest to take along for a touch up.
    The color is great too,do you prefer this or dandelion?

    1. Thanks Annd ๐Ÿ™‚ it is so so pretty to look at heheh, yeah I’ll admit it’s a bit too big to carry around for a touch up ๐Ÿ™ but the colour is lovely :D! I love both, this one is a lovely coral – pink & the other is really more of a rosy pink for a natural flushed sort of cheek ๐Ÿ˜€ Have you tried any of them? ๐Ÿ™‚ Xo

      2. Omg I mispelt Anne**** How could I! So sorry :(! You have to tell me what you think, when you swatch them ๐Ÿ™‚ I think you’ll absolutely love them! Hahaha Xo

      3. That’s alright, I have a habit of misspelling my own name when typing in a hurry ๐Ÿ˜‰
        Oh I probably will, which is a problem in itself!

    1. Thanks so much Rachel ๐Ÿ™‚ hehehe it really does smell amazing, if anything just go in store & smell it hehehe ๐Ÿ˜€ Hope you have a lovely weekend hunny! xoxo

  13. This is a very pretty packaging and when I saw your picture on IG I was very intrigued. The brush looks unusual and but matches the leopard print. I’ve not bought anything else from Benefit yet bar their mascara, but this is worth having a look. Thanks so much for sharing x

  20. I LOVE this! Benefit packaging always sways me, that’s the main reason why I am willing to pay the price haha (woops) but it’s really not too intense as you said which is good so you can build on the colour xxx

    1. I know what you mean about the cardboard packaging, now that you mention that point it probably should’ve come in a compact to carry around with ease!!! :)! Thanks so much for your comment Renata Xoxox

  35. It looks like a really exotic shade! I was just replying to your comment and saying that I’ve never tried any Benefit blushers/bronzers (must be the only one) but I should probably get round to that ๐Ÿ™‚
