Benefit "box" blushes

[ Edited ]

Saw these on a couple YT videos and also on Saturday at ULTA.  ULTA was already out of quite a few shades so thinking they must be popular.  Seemed pigmented to me.  The YTers were so excited about the blushes and liked them.  Anyone try these before?  Apparently, Benefit has done blushes like this before or I may have misunderstood that.  Anyway, just curious/wondering.

I love Benefit blushes. They're long lasting. I have at least 3, with Dallas being the best shade for me.  They have added many new, interesting shades recently.

 

When I first bought one, I was sure the box wouldn't hold up. It has.  I've had them for a really long time, but I have a lot of makeup so I alternate. You won't be disappointed. They also sell mini boxes so may want to start there.

Excellent blushes.  They've been around for a long time now.  You won't be disappointed.

No, you haven't misunderstood.  The boxes aren't knew, they just brought them back.  I think some are older colors.  I don't have any of the boxed blushes but I do have two of the boxed highlighters.  The new boxes are thinner than the old ones.

I have Cookie and Tickle

Dandelion is one of their iconic products and I see you can now get it in a mini.  I wish everything came in a mini.  It's $17

I had one of the blushes quite awhile back. I just never liked the box concept. But that's just me.

Went to the Sephora near work today and they had all the shades in that I wanted to check out.  Some new blushes may be coming my way soon.  Haven't decided yet.

Benefit packaging has bugged me for years, completely impractical. Chubby boxes in a cosmetic bag in a handbag just doesn't work. It doesn't work for travel either. Because of that, I don't use anything Benefit, It's too bad because they have some lovely blush and bronzer colors!

Those bulky boxes don’t work on my vanity either.
