Benefit reviews

Hello everyone, this is going to be my Benefit review post. These are my opinions and this post is not sponsored by Benefit.

 

Lollitint, Benetint and Posietint

The Benefit tints are so cute, these pictured are the medium sized tints and I don't have cha-cha tint yet ;)



Lollitint is described as a candy orchid tint, it is a beautiful lavender which is definitely one of the thicker tints in the family.
 
 
 
Benetint is described as a rose tinted colour and it is a gorgeous red which looks beautiful on the cheeks or lips. I tend to reach for this tint more than any of the other tints. This is a classic in the Benefit collection as it was the first Benefit product and for me one of the best. This tint is very thin and watery so when applying to the cheeks I blend it in immediately or it will dry.

Posietint is described as a poppy pink tint and is a light pink that is thicker than Benetint and it looks so beautiful on the lips and cheeks. I use this one the most in the summer months when I tend to wear more lighter colours.  

  

Benefit Balms

Next are two of the four Benefit new balms which accompany the tints, Benebalm is the darkest balm.  Benefit market these as for different coloured balms they are very sheer, but the packaging is the cutest. I love them as balms for days when I don't want lipstick on and I've heard lots of people doing the layering method where you apply the tint then the balm, but I do think they are nice alone and they also have hints of shimmer in the light.  





Porefessional

The Porefessional is the probalm to minimize the appearance of pores, this makes my makeup last longer and does minimize my pores.  Porefessional makes my skin feel so soft, the picture is my travel size Porefessional. This is one of their bestselling products.


 
 
 


Hervana Lip Gloss

This is Benefits Hervana ultra plush lip gloss, these accompany the blushers
and bronzers.  This one is a pinkie rose with shimmer in it, it looks quite dark
in the photo but it is quite light and shimmery on the lips, its not to sticky and
looks very nice when your lips need a bit of colour.

The Hervana swatch is the far right on the above the Porefessional swatch.

 

Cheeky Sweet Spot

The Benefit cheeky sweet spot is one of the 2014 holiday palettes.  The packaging is adorable but is tin so not very travel friendly, but is so cute. 

The blushers and bronzers are amazing as expected from Benefit, they range from a light dusty rose colour to a pinkie playful colour this also includes watts up highlight sample which is a beautiful highlight for the cheekbone and browbone.




The cheeky sweet spot also includes one of the brushes included in all of their box blushers and bronzers.

My favourite blush in this set is Coralista and of course the no.1 favourite bronzer of mine Hoola, one of Benefit's top selling products.



The picture of the benefit cheeky sweet spot swatches above is not my photo.
