Benefit Sugarbomb Blush - Review, Photos, Swatches

Benefit has been one of my favorite brands, even before they became locally available. My first Benefit products were High Beam, Bluffdust and Eye Bright. I've been eyeing on their powder blush for quite a while now, so when I got the chance to get Sugarbomb on a discount, I purchased it in a heartbeat.

Benefit Sugarbomb is a pinky peach blush; its more of a peach than pink. This blush gives me a very natural flush on my cheeks. It's a very light blush (also works as a highlighter for me), so this might not appear on darker skin tones (I'm a NC20-NC25, for reference). It has a slight shimmer to it, which I love. It also smells like candy, which I really don't mind. Mine came with the fliptop lid with mirror and brush. Some hates this brush, while I really love it. This is the blush I usually tote with me to save space in my makeup kit. It has decent hours of wear, though I expected more being it's an expensive blush. I've been using it for 1 month straight now, and it still looks full on the pan. Might take a while before I even finish half of this, so at least on that part the price is justifiable.


Benefit Sugarbomb










PROS: Gives the perfect natural flush, works also as a highlighter, comes with a brush and a mirror, contains a lot of product, decent hours of wear (about 2-4 hours on me)
CONS: Might look more of a highlighter on darker skin than a blush, it has a scent (I don't mind), expensive


VERDICT:

 I will repurchase when I don't find something better.




Where To Buy:
I got mine online (hence the discount), you can get this locally in Benefit Counters for P1800
