Say Hello to Flawless Skin.

Hello Flawless! is the brand new custom powder cover-up with SPF 15 from Benefit Cosmetics.

This powder in a box (which Benefit always does best) is great for the entire face or just spot coverage. Now, girls of my age really need to start pulling away from the powder foundations, which is hard to do. But I am doing it slowly but surely, so I must admit that I did not try Hello Flawless! on me. But my teenaged daughter has been using it and is in love with this powder.

Caci says that the texture of this powder is amazing. She loves how she can easily customize the degree of coverage by either using the sponge or brush provided. I watch her use the brush to apply most often, which simply evens out her skin tone and makes it look flawless. Not heavily made up a all. She is getting good at patting around her nose and under her eyes with the sponge too, for when she needs a bit more coverage.

Hello Flawless sports an built in SPF of 15, whish is absolutely essential, and this beauty powder is available in 6 easy to match shades. You won't find Hello Flawless at the Benefit counter until sometime in April, but it is available right now online at Benefit Cosmetics.

Is Coralista the New Orgasm?

Benefit has the most delicious new peachy pink with a hint of shimmery face powder, or might I say blush. Sound familiar? Yes, it totally sounds like NARS Orgasm Blush, doesn't it? It even looks the same.

NARS Orgasm Blush

Benefit Coralista

I am just waiting to get my hands on another compact of Orgasm as mine shattered when traveling last year. Once I do, I will do a side by side cheek comparison. So far, I think that Coralista is almost identical - love.
