Benefit cheeky sweet spot BLOCKBUSTER six blush holiday 2014 set

 
 
 
Let me tell you if you like blush as much as I do then check out this blush set. It's from benefit and it is their cheeky sweet spot blockbuster kit. It has six of their iconic box o blushes,a brush,and watts up highlighter.
 



 

 
 
 
Look at how pretty the colors of the blushes are!!
There not as big as the ones in the regular boxes but there not tiny either. They all also have a nice rose fresh scent to them.
 
The first three blushes in the palette are all variations of pink blushes. Dandelion color is a light soft pale pink color which doesnt show up well on my skintone. bella bamba was a blush I was so looking forward too. It is a beautiful pink color with gold glitters. Sugar bomb is more of a light pink shimmer highlighter. I usually put it ontop of another blush.
 

 
I had the sugar bomb box o blush already and the first is the box blushes. The box blush is pinker and more pigmented but next to eachother their very similar.
 
Next set of three blushes. Hoola is a matte bronzer and a mid tone color. I use to own the coralista blush and I remember it use to be more pink. The one in this kit is more peachy.
Rockateur looks like the perfect blush for the fall and winter!
It looks like a deep rose color.
 
 
If you have been wanting to try out the benefit blush boxes you should think about getting this palette. I tried to get it online at Sephora and Ulta but it was sold out but in my Sephora store I found it one of the last time.

Highlighters Of Three

 
 
 
Let's go through these three highlighters and see how well they perform. 
 
The benefit girl meets pearl is a cream base highlighter of a light pinky shade. It is the sheerest color out of the three because when you blend it out you just get a nice sheen. I was so impressed that it dried pretty fast because some cream products stay goopy.
It also lasted the whole day on my face without fading over messing up my makeup underneath it. It is also not an over the top highlighter so I can apply all over my face and not look like a disco ball. I just get the nicest glowy skin with this product and highly recommend it if you want a suble glowy highlighter. It retails for $30 but it comes with so much product I know I'll get great use out of it becausue I use it everyday.
 


Girl Meets Pearl,Watts up,Mary Lou
 
 
 
 
I received the benefit watts up from Sephora as the birthday gift and even though its a travel size it still has a lot of product to it. Unlike the girl meets pearl you don't want to apply this over your entire face. It is a extremely pigmented gold champagne color that comes off so noticeable on the face. With saying that I only put it on the top of my cheek bones and make sure to blend it out. Make sure to sure rub and warm it up with you fingers first because its a drier cream product. The full size retails for $30
 

 
 
Now onto the The Balm Mary manizer highlighter. I've hit pan already which is very rare for me on a highlighter. It is literally such a pigmented champagne color that goes so well with my skin tone. Just like with the watts up highlighter its best to be light handed with this.
I apply this one under my brow bone,down my nose and cheek bones. It is an instant perk me up for the face. It livens it up and really accentuation my cheekbones. Mary lou is really a fool proof highlighter. It blends so effortlessly that I know this highlighter will be a staple in my makeup collection. I don't only use this product on my face it also looks so good on legs and neck area!
It retails for $24
