Benefit Powda Wowza

 Benefit Powda Wowza - £19.50

I have lusted after this product for over a year now - I love Hoola and use if on a daily basis to contour and bronze my face and have really fancied trying a benefit blusher for a while.  Powda Wowza seemed like the perfect way to do so, in a compact box which is perfect for taking away with me.  When I spotted this on a blog sale I pounced, and I'm so happy it's mine!

Powda Wowza is packaged in a typical Benefit cardboard box split into four sections.  One contains a small (pretty useless) brush, one for Hoola, one for Bella Bamba and one for Coralista.  The only downside of the packaging is the lack of a mirror, but that doesn't particularly bother me.

Hoola is the perfect bronzer for my skin tone.  It isn't too warm toned, so doesn't appear orange on my skin, and is matte, making it perfect for contouring.  It blends really easily, and a little goes a long way.

Bella Bamba is a pretty pink shade packed with shimmer.  This does have more shimmer than I'd usually reach for, but it actually leaves a pretty glowy sheen on the cheeks which I really like.  It blends easily, and is really easy to apply.

Coralista is a Benefit blush shade I've wanted to try for quite a while.  It's a gorgeous peachy shade with a hint of gold shimmer running through it.  I really like this shade, its very easy to wear and apply, and looks pretty with a range of makeup looks - my favourite of the three!

I really do love this, it's really easy to pop in my makeup bag when I go to visit my boyfriend in university and have two blushers and a bronzer all in one place.  The only thing is that I've developed a obsession with this sort of palette, I now have my eye on Urban Decay's Flushed palette - so gorgeous! I'd 100% reccommend this!
