Benefit Coralista Box Of Powder

I went through a phase of piling on the makeup. Everything from foundation, face powder, bronzer and blusher! It was all too much. Too time consuming and not great for my skin either. But now I have my few essentials and I choose whether to use them all or maybe just one, depending on how I feel and how much time I have. My essentials are moisturiser, blusher and mascara. Occasionally face powder. I love the Benefit range of cosmetics. I splurged out about 5 months ago and bought all my ‘essentials’ from their shop in East London. I didn’t realise they had an actual shop; I had only seen them ... more

Benefit CORALista is one of Benefit's range of cheek powders, and is marketed as the 'cheerful cheek powder'. I have a minor addiction to those little boxes of powder - with 'Georgia' and '10' also finding their way on to my dressing table. While browsing the Benefit counter in Debenhams, Westfield in search of a birthday present for a friend back in 2009, the girl behind the counter recommended that I try CORALista. It doesn't take much to persuade me to try out a new beauty product, so within a couple of minutes I was perched on a stool at the counter having this product brushed over my ... more

So if you are into cosmetics and have never heard of Benefit, where have you been? Benefit was set up in San Francisco in the 1970's by the Ford twins.

One of the products that was added to the range was the box o' powders, each coming in a square box, Coralista is the coral blush offering in this family, offering a 'Rio glow'. This isn't my first box o' powder purchase, I already own and have already reviewed my beloved Dallas. Having had such a good experience with Dallas, I ordered Coralista when Debenhams had it ... more

Ever since I used my first Benefit cosmetics cheek powder I have been hooked. I love their cosmetics and their whole marketing strategy and look with their fun and quirky packaging and fun product names. I use a number of different Benefit products and love the look I achieve with them, natural, pretty and effective. One of my favourite ranges are their boxed powders which come in a range of different shades to give your cheeks and whole face colour and definition without being too heavy. The first one I ever tried was their dandelion blush but for this past summer I wanted something with a ... more

~*Benefit Coralista*~ I first came across this when I was desperately on the hunt for a new blush. Mine had just burst all over my bag and I had sworn off Rimmell for life! Stomping around Debenhams in a huff with life, I caught the eye of a Benefit saleswoman. I tried to make a run for it but I was cornered! One test off this blush however..... **Coralista Box** Coralista comes in a square and very colourful little cardboard box, with a pull off lid. The colours caught my eye first off with the pinks, greens and leopard print details. How very fancy! The box is tiny and fits in the palm of my ... more
