Any of you who know me, or who have been following my blog for a while will know I cannot resist a Benefit product. And when I find a bargain, my card is in the machine before you can say 'Watts Up'.
I had my makeup done in the House of Fraser concession on Oxford Street this week, and fell in love with three products, Watts Up, Benefit and Boi-ing. And if you bought two you got a free makeup bag, so it made sense to buy them, right?
I warn you now, this is a very picture heavy post!
Benetint is a pinky red lip and cheek stain, that is easily buildable for a sheer, nudey pink lip, or a bold pink stain! The bottle contains 12.5ml of tint, which is waaaaaaaaay more than I will ever be able to use! I haven't used it on my cheeks yes, but I love it on my lips! It even comes with a cute little guide on how to wear the tint, in case you aren't sure. What could be better?
I fell in love with this product faster than I've ever fallen in love with anything. Watts Up is a champagney coloured highlighter, that is recommended you apply to your upper cheekbones and brow bones. After swiping it in the desired areas, you use the spongy brush in circular movements to blend in, and then admire your glowing look in the mirror! This highlighter also looked good blended onto the eyelid, almost like a cream shadow!
Boi-ing is a heavy duty concealer, I picked shade one, for my poor pale skin! This stuff is absolutely great for disguising the horrendous bags I have under my eyes at the moment! It's a lot bigger than my MAC concealer, but it's not quite as good at covering spots. However, it is a great eye base, and makes me feel just a little more awake!
Benefit offer a gift set of their skincare miniatures, a great idea if you want to try out their products without committing to a twenty pound purchase for one bottle of face wash. These are actually decent sized miniatures, containing their eye cream, face wash, two moisturisers, a face scrub and a toning lotion. And for only ten pounds, what better way to try out half their collection?! I will definitely be posting a longer review when I've had a proper play with these products!
So there's my cheeky Benefit spending spree, have you tried out any of these products?
