Bronzer or blusher? Most women fall into one camp but this ingenious little product, which launches in March, combines both.
But aside from the gorgeous pinky-bronze blush, a bit about the fragrance.
It might be the nicest smelling make-up product I've ever used. Like a Summer holiday in a pot, fruity, summery and delicious.
I imagine that Fleetwood Mac's Stevie Nicks smelled like this as she sunbathed on Venice beach in the 1970s.
I'm already a fan of Benefit's best selling Hula bronzer but usually pop a bit of pinky blush on top so this is the perfect product to add a bit of daytime colour during the winter months without too much sparkle.
The brand is as famous for its packaging as its products and the gorgous retro design is inspired by Californian summer girls. Too nice to hide away in your make-up bag.
Verdict - a fragrant five stars.
Benefit Galifornia is priced £24.50 and available from Debenhams and Frasers in Glasgow or online at www.benefitcosmetics.com
