BEST OF BENEFIT



























These three products are, for now, my favourite items from Benefit. The brand has become legendary for producing great quality cosmetics which have stand-out packaging and names. Most of Benefits collection has themes which focus around the 1950s - 1970s housewives generation, therefore making them fun and playful. These are definite investment pieces and they have great gift sets to purchase which gives you a few smaller sized versions of their best-selling products.

1. Benefit benetint - This is a great product as it lasts for AGES! You only need the littlest amount to blend on the apples of your cheeks and then blend. It leaves a flushed finish which gives a nice overall feel - I mean, let's face it, who doesn't want to have that cute, rosy glow to brighten up these darker days?

From the Benefit website;

"Our original rose-tinted stain is kiss-proof, see-through colour for lips & cheeks that lasts for hours. Naturally sheer & sexy on all complexions...it’s innocent yet provocative.
Originally created for an exotic dancer in the 1970s, benetint has soared to cult fave status. It's loved by celebs, makeup artists and gals around the world. It's the sexiest flush you can get from a bottle!"


2. Benefit Hoola - This bronzer is a life saver for super-pale girls such as myself. Using the SMALLEST amount on your face brush, you gently sweep the product in a figure of "3" shape on each side of your face; starting at the temples, down under the cheekbones then finishing under the jawline. This will contour the face perfectly if used correctly - I had to do it several times to master the right technique!


From the Benefit website;

"Dust this soft bronze powder over your complexion for a healthy, natural looking "tan" year-round. No tanning bed necessary! Complete with soft, natural-bristle cheek brush. It's pure colour - no sparkle and no shine!"

3. Benefit BADgal Lash Mascara - Probably my second favourite mascara (Maybelline Great Lash being no.1) - I have a travel sized one with me at all times and it's great for touch-ups and has a nice, fat applicator. This mascara gives great volume without leaving those dreaded clumps.


From the Benefit website;

"Sexy, sultry, pure unadulterated black mascara for full, voluminous lashes. It's as BAD as you want to be! Famously big, bodacious brush coats lashes with our super black formula."
