I love the shade of Benetint, suits my skin tone perfectly and I like the sheerness of it. But I hate the faff of the brush and blending it and getting stained fingers - so, can anyone recommend the holy grail of a powder blusher that looks like Benetint?

I like Bobby Brown cream blushers

I use a shade called hot pink, had it for years

I felt the same about Benetint! I now use a rose pink coloured one from Bourjois, or a Sleek bright bubblegum pink one.
They come up similar once they're on the skin but aren't exactly the same as Benetint. Neither are expensive but it might be worth trying the testers in Boots before you commit.

Bobbi brown pale pink. It looks fluoro but goes on as a lovely natural pink.

Thanks both. I've tried a Bourjois one already but not sure on the shade - felt like it didn't go on the brush particularly well though? I'll check it out though and the boots one :)
Unfortunately no Bobbi Brown local to me but if struggle to find anything I'll try it next time I go further afield - I do like Bobbi Brown normally so may be worth waiting.

Yeah I do bash the bourjois one a bit with a small kabuki brush Grin

Haha - I was scraping at mine this morning to try to get it to powder up a bit, it's a solid block!

The closest colour match in colour I've found for Benetint is Milani Baked Blush in Red Vino, its on Amazon UK for £6. I love Milani, I'm in the US and they're everywhere here and the quality is fantastic.

That looks quite dark in the picture so I assume it goes on lighter? Not a bad price so I'll try the Boots ones first and if not I'll give it a go Smile
