Benefit Cheekathon First Impressions

I have always used travel sized Hoola and Rockateur for as long as I can remember, I had them in holiday sets and I keep them in a small Z Palette. I finally decided to get the full size of these products, when I came across the Cheekathon. This was £44.50 which works out cheaper than purchasing two full sized blush or bronzer (£23.50 each).

The Cheekathon includes full sizes of Dandelion, Hoola, Rockateur, Dallas, CORALista and a mini powder brush. The box itself is smaller than I expected which is great for travelling as it fits in my travel bag perfectly. It also has a large mirror that is helpful for when doing makeup away from home. 

Shown above are the swatches, I'm happy with all the colours and I'm glad I got this instead of just rockateur and Hoola. However Dandelion alone is too light for my skin tone but when I mix it with any of the others it looks good. Rocketeur full size also has a layer of glitter which I didn't realise before purchasing, on the original swatch above it's very glittery and not like my travel size at all. However when I used it a few times the glitter stated to calm down and it looks just as good as my travel size.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone who travels a lot due to it's size or for someone like me who wants two. With this set you get five full sized products for less than the price for two.
