So as soon as this months Glamour magazine came out I rushed to the shops to get my hands on 3 copies for 3 beautiful benefit goodies. Benefit is an amazing cosmetics company that have such cute and kitsch items. The packaging is adorable and the products are extremely good quality.
The 3 items were: posietint, benetint & highbeam.
Here's a run down on each product ...
Posietine was a new one to me, I'd never tried this product before. I was a bit surprised at the thickness of the product, I think I was expecting it to be a bit more runny but it's quite thick. It's a gorgeous glowing pink colour and is very subtle once applied. I would say this is for someone who likes their makeup very natural as it will give a healthy blush to the cheeks without it looking like you're wearing makeup. As with each of these products I would recommend them to be worn with a tinted mousturiser, mousse foundation etc as they does not work well with a powdered base.
Benetint and me go back a long way. My nana used to buy me this for my christmas when I was 16 but I did used to over do it and look a bit doll like, big mistake! This product is a beautiful colour and gives a healthy flushed look. It can be used as a cheek tint or lip tint. It is a bit stronger than poisetint and is more liquid like. Excellent for a natural look again.
Last but not least highbeam. This is a thick creamy product that is an excellent highlighter. I mainly use it on my brow bone, the top of my cheek bones and my cupids bow. It gives a slight shimmer and glows perfectly. It can look quite natural and catches the light beautifully. A lovely product!
