Benefit WANDERful World blusher collection

Blusher is miraculous, in our humble opinion. Honestly, the fastest way to perk up a complexion, and nobody – but nobody – doesn’t look better without a whoosh of colour on their cheeks. (We are COMPLETELY in agreement with Sali Hughes, on this one.)

We’d like to roll out the rosy pink carpet, then, for a magnificent new line-up: Benefit WANDERful. There’s one existing shade in the range – cult favourite Dandelion – but the rest are a pink-to-tawny rainbow (see above) of super-soft, wearable, complexion-perking shades that promise to be sweat-proof, humidity-proof, and won’t block your pores, even on the hottest day.

WANDERful World blushers are perfect for summer, too: featuring freshwater pearl and synthetic sapphire (no, we’re not sure what that is, either – but in this case, we don’t care), they deliver a soft-focus effect. The only challenge…? Deciding which to pick. So we’d like to steer you to two options. Above, there’s PomPom, above, described as a ‘pomegranate rose’, with a natural-matte finish. (Personally, we prefer the natural matte finish – but you also have satin or soft shimmer, if you’re on Team Gleam.)

We’re also keen on Starlaa, above, but if that’s your pick, you’ll have to wait a little longer for it to come into stock. (The very becoming shade below, meanwhile, on the model’s cheek, is that iconic shade Dandelion.)

is Basically, if at AT ALL POSS, we point you in the direction of a Benefit counter, where you can try them on your own skin – the shades range from bronze to baby pink, and everything in between.

And we absolutely PROMISE instant prettiness.
