This is by far my favorite Benefit palette! I love all the colors in this one, and I only have great things to say about the formula.

The highlighter (Cookie) is gorgeous, it's so creamy to the touch (but it's still a powder). The color payoff is crazy good, so a little goes a long way. If you love a blinding highlighter, you will be obsessed with Cookie. It can be applied with a light hand too, for a more subtle glow.

Hoola will always be a favorite of mine, it's a great bronzer! It's a light brown with neutral gold undertones, and doesn't look orange at all on me. The finish is matte as well, which is what I prefer. It might be a bit too warm toned for very fair skin tones though.

The blushes are very pretty too! Dallas and Sugarbomb have such a beautiful luminous finish (they aren't sparkly or glittery), while Georgia is more frosty. I've never tried any of these colors before because they weren't that appealing to me, but wow I was so wrong.

Sugarbomb and Georgia are beautiful colors for the summer, and Dallas is the perfect blush for a natural-looking makeup look. Formula-wise, all of these blushes are very soft but I recommend to apply the shade Georgia with a dense brush (like the brush included in this palette), because it has a bit of a waxy consistency.

I have to say that Georgia and Dallas aren't extremely pigmented though, and the shades are quite light anyway, so I think they would look best on fair to medium skin tones. That being said, I would definitely use Georgia as an highlighter if I was more tan!

Swatches on medium skin

Dallas is a rosy nude with a luminous finish.

Sugarbomb is a golden warm pink with a luminous finish.
