Benefit Face Powder in Sugarbomb: My No.1 Daytime Blush

Benefit Face Powder in Sugarbomb, £23.50, available from Benefitcosmetics.co.uk

Gorgeously soft and warming, this blush adds a beautifully subtle glow to the cheeks. It's really complimenting to both pale and medium complexions, and would make a great shimmering highlighter for darker skin tones.

The palette balance of golden bronzes and pinks (rose, shimmering pink, soft plum, sumptuous peach) means that you don't end up with a harsh block of blush, so no Coco the Clown in sight (phew!) 

I sweep the blush over the apples of my cheeks everyday for a 'natural' radiance, perfect for creating glowing, healthy skin. A look of natural perfection. I also like to use it as a base to soften a stronger blush for nights out, applying a sweep of NARS blush in Orgasm across my cheek bones for an extra oomph.

Top marks from me! Sugarbomb Face Powder is a make-up bag must for everyday gorgeousness.

Benefit Hervana Good Karma Face Powder

Benefit Hervana Good Karma Face Powder, £23.50, available from FeelUnique.com (free delivery!)

This multi-tonal blush has just the right balance between soft pinks and warm, shimmering coral. The Lucky Shell shade adds a pearly glow, while the Divine Peach has a great golden shimmer which adds a healthy warmth to your skin. The pinker shades, Heavenly Rose and Berry Delight, are feminine and flattering on the apples of your cheeks.

I like to use the palette combination together on initial application (with a good blush brush) and then use the Lucky Shell as a highlight. 

The great thing about Benefit's Face Powders is how long they last. They're really compact, so although you don't get tons for your money they do go the distance. I had my last box for about 12 months! Well worth spending those extra pennies in my opinion.
