Benefit Rockateur


If you saw my previous 'Saturday splurge' you will know that Benefits Rockateur blush finally won me over! Whilst the gorgeous rose gold tones always appealed, the shimmery top coat really put me off as I was concerned it might run through the blush. However whilst purchasing a new Porefessional primer the sales assistant tried this on me and it was love! The first thing was that I don't own anything anywhere near similar to this colour, which as a makeup lover is a massive draw. It also gives a really natural glow to the skin and can be built up to give more colour if desired. I am not over ally keen on the packaging design as I find it bordering on slightly tacky, but I do love the box style of it.  
When you first open the box you are immediately drawn to the beautifully embellished blusher shining back at you! The shimmer is a really thin overlay and luckily doesn't run through the blush itself as I know this would have stopped me buying it. I love the fact that it can be a really sheer blush but can equally be built up. This blush costs £23.50 for 5.0g , which is quite a big price tag, especially when you realise MAC blushers are £18 for 6.0g. I think with Benefit you defiantly pay for the decorative packaging and embellishment in their products.  However the gorgeous product inside totally makes up for the hefty price!! 
I am really pleased I brought this as a little treat for myself. I really, really want to try some other Benefit products! What are your favourites?! I would love to try Hoola for the summer. Have you tried this? What  do you think?
