Benefit Dandelion is a very warm-toned, light pink with a satin finish. It is a blush that is permanent in these palettes: Cheeky Sweet Spot, Blush Bar, and Party like a Flockstar.

Editor's Review

Dandelion is a soft, light-medium pink with warm undertones and random, gold sparkles strewn through the powder. They were the type of sparkles that did not bind with the powder, so they seemed rather useless in the powder. It had semi-sheer, buildable coverage (up to medium) with a soft, moderately powdery consistency that was best applied with a light hand to avoid a ton of excess product kicked up all over the palette. I saw noticeable fading within six and a half hours of wear.

I must’ve repurchase this in the 10gm box at least 6 times. It was my go-to daily blush for a solid decade. I really don’t know why I stopped using it? As it was the perfect powder blush for my fair skin. It was tough to find something that didn’t look clownish or overwhelming on the face. Even NARS Orgasm was too dark. I loved the box it came in because it does kick up a lot of powder, as Christine noted. The one time I managed to depot it, I instantly regretted it. You need the box for all the kick up. I never noticed the sparkles, oddly enough. It just gives a lovely subtle little pink glow, no shine. You can’t overdo it. I do miss using it and will dig up my backup for nostalgia and perhaps to compare with the variety of blushes I use now.

As someone who is rather fair skinned, I tend to shy away from blushes out of fear of looking like a clown, but this blush is great for me for everyday wear. Using some of this on the apples of my cheeks adds a natural looking glow without making me look "made up".

Perfect everyday blush for pale to fair skin. Looks very natural and glowing on skin, just not as all over face powder--too much sparkle. Color is well balanced, cool pink with a hint of peach--doesn't look like a typical blush but gives a perfect flush to cheeks. Very versatile color that's hard to overdo. Foolproof product, light rose scent, controversial value (old packaging 10g, new flip box design 7g). Packaging is sturdy cardboard and includes a brush that works surprisingly well in a pinch.

I think this is the perfect everyday blush for very fair, cool-toned skin. Most blushes are way too dark on me, but this is super pretty and never makes me look sunburned!
