Benefit Coralista Blush is love!

January 21, 2009 Paris B 26 Comments

If you like peachy-coral-pink toned blushes, look no further than Benefit Coralista – the new blush from Benefit Cosmetics. Mine just arrived today all the way from the US of A and I couldn’t wait to tear right into it – ooh! Animal! 😛

Absolutely befitting the jungle cat look that Benefit has given to the Coralista box. I’m not quite sure why they went with a jungle theme. The name “Coralista” brings to my mind swaying palm trees on a deserted island beach and margarita in hand, definitely not a wild jungle cat.

So, here’s Benefit’s Coralista – a lovely peachy-coral-pink blush in a box that is really pigmented. If you found Dandelion and Georgia too sheer, be careful with Coralista. One swipe produced this swatch on the back of my hand.

Yes, its very pigmented so I’m going to have to be careful with this one. The packaging is the same as other Benefit box blushes – I’m not too crazy about the cardboard packaging nor the fact that the blush is embedded so deep. But I’ll live 😛

There is a sweetish scent accompanying the blush. I’ve read many reviews that liked it. I’m not too crazy about it. My office now smells of the sweet scent of Coralista – slightly peachy and sweet. I’m going to leave the box open for a while and see if the scent dissipates some.

There are also reviews that have compared Coralista with NARS Orgasm. I’ll update when I go home and swatch the two, and see what other blushes it comes close to.

I bought mine from Benefit Cosmetics online for US$28 and I’m not sure when we will have them at the Benefit counters in Malaysia (or if its out already – I haven’t been around). It should retail for RM129 here, similar to the other blushes in a box.

I can’t wait to try this one on. I love peachy-coral-pink blushes and they bring out the best in me!

Stay beautiful,

Paris B

    Oooooh nice! I like! I heard it’s very similar to the Nars Super Orgasm or something? It does look pretty though. Tempting tempting :p

      Hey Tine, Just a quick comparison – I find Coralista redder and more coral than Orgasm – I prefer Coralista 😛

    did you get this here or overseas? i have no time to travel anywhere farther than One U for the time being as you know CNY is just around the corner and i have to do a lot of baking before that. if you get this overseas, then i’d wait… but if you get it here, i’d rush to mid-valley!

    I love love love blushes 🙂 This one is very beautiful. I never knew Benefit ships overseas. It’s good for me because the local Sephora doesn’t carry this brand. I’ve been waiting to try their products.

      Hiya Jooj, I will swatch them soon. Just quickly, Orgasm is lighter than Coralista and more peachy. Coralista has more coral in it and IMO prettier!

    I feel damn ripped off buying in Msia. You girls should just order together =) I went to Seoul and bought it at close to the US price (definitely cheaper than here). Sigh. Love Posietint. Hehe. Too many blushes already or I’d probably get this too. Tsk..tsk…tsk

      Hi S-Kay, Usually when I place a Benefit order its with a few friends to take advantage of the free ship 😉 And you can’t possibly be telling me about having too many blushes! LOL…
