BeneFit Powder Pop Palette
This little blush/bronzer palette is adorable! 3 GREAT BeneFit powders in one box!!! Great for on-the-go or travel! True to BeneFit's style, the packaging is adorable!!! This kit contains small/travel sized pans of "best sellers" from BeneFit including: Hoola (bronzer), Dandelion (blush), and Dallas (blush/contour).
Hoola is a medium matte bronzers. Perfect for those who don't like shimmer and use their bronzer for contouring. Tip: Apply in a "3" shape with a light-hand on your face hitting the top of your forehead, down your nose, and the hallows just under your cheekbones. I like this for contouring.
Dandelion is one of my "top 5" blushes; and, certainly my favorite pale blush. It shows up as a baby pink color on my uber-pale skin. It is just one of those face powders that makes my skin look "naturally healthy" (yet, not overly "made up"). But, I could see how this might not show up much on darker skin tones. It has an ever-so-slight shimmer that just looks beautiful on the skin (no noticeable sparkles, just a "glow"). I reach for this blush when I want a very natural look. So super pretty!!!
Dallas is a pretty bronzy-berry color with a slight shimmer that can be used as a contour or a blush. I love it as a blush. It gives a nice rosey-bronzy glow. I apply this with a light hand on my fair skin. I think this would look good on a variety of skintones.
One down-side to this product is that the pans are so small. So, depending on what bronzer/blush brush you use, it might not fit into the pan. The brush that comes with this set is pretty useless (I prefer a fluffier blush brush and use a kabuki for bronzer). Luckily, I have a small travel-size kabuki from my Ecotools travel kit that fits perfectly into these small pans. These blushes and bronzers apply great with that tool. But, the small-size is also a plus when you consider this item for travel. You get 3 products in a size just slightly wider and flatter than a normal BeneFit blush/bronzer package. So, I certainly plan on traveling with this!
I lucked out and found this for a steal on ebay! I believe it is discontinued???, but you can still find it at places like TJ Maxx and online (ebay). Hopefully BeneFit will bring this back with a new assortment of shades!
I admit, with BeneFit, I do fall for the cute packaging...but, the products are really fantastic too!
Love this little blush/bronzer palette! Super great for travel!
Hope you enjoyed this little review!
XOXO!

This product is a great option, the boxed powders are so huge and you'd never go through a whole one. ;)
So true! I seem to so rarely "hit pan"...hope BeneFit comes out with more of these (think they have?)!!! :) Although, I think they should do away with the little brush and do a palette of 4 powders. Thanks for the comment Justine! :)
great review Pammy! I love how companies are now taking into consideration giving their consumers what they want and need. especially in the realm of makeup! :)
I love both Dandelion and Hoola, but if you were just starting out with Benefit's boxed powders and wanted to test a few out or wanted a travel alternative this would be great! I have yet to try Dallas but I would like to! :)
Yes, for sure! I had travel in mind when I got this...and, have never had a blush palette before. Nice to have multiple options for blush for travel. :) Dandelion is one of my all-time faves for sure! Love BeneFit!
