Perfect for Fair Ladys! Get the Snow White look with Benetint
Advantages: t smells Lush; really pleasant, lasts over a year; this Pot of Rosiness is Highly Recommendable Disadvantages: none.
Marketed as the "Original; the Best" in Cheek & Lip stains; this liquid blush is sold in a 13.5 ML pot at £16.67 per 10ML, and costs £22.50. It smells Lush; really pleasant, and lasts for over a year; providing you don 't go leaving the top of your pot as it will evaporate! APPLICATION It is a little tricky to get the hang of at first; and drippy too so maybe dip a cotton wool bud and blend on your lips first; to get the idea of the consistency. ... ...a drop on your clothes as it will be HARD to remove! When applying on your cheeks, use Sparingly; I 'd say one little drop for both cheeks; as otherwise you can very easily leave the house with two bright red circles on your face; in place of a healthy glow! When applying; smile really meaningfully, wait til your face has relaxed into the smile; dot a tiny drop onto the fullest part of your cheek; then right away; blend in an upwards circular motion ...

Transforms skin in one stroke of colour!
Advantages: Imperfections seem to be erased, protects the skin. Disadvantages: A bit expensive!
...had a free sample from Chanel & I tried it & I was amazed!
I just applied a bit to cover the areas of my skin that don't quite look good & in one application, using just a little, my skin looked great.
I decided to buy it & I am very pleased.
It really does transform your skin & it makes it so easy. I have tried a lot of foundations & they all either don't make much difference to my skin or don't last long. This one lasted quite well.
It does ... ...seem to be erased.
it also protects the skin from enviornment damage:
1.It has an SPF15 to protect from sun's rays (you still need it eve if it's not sunny). 2.It also has nut extracts which protect against free radicals 9these are things like pollution, smoke etc which damage te skin). ...

To Touche or not to Touche?
Advantages: Great packaging & easy to use Disadvantages: Not a concealer
YSL's Touch Eclat is very popular amongst my friends and quite obviously women who love make up and even those who don't really use make up. However I must state that in my opinion this product is not really a concealer contrary to many peoples beliefs. I would describe Touche Eclat as a highlighter only, which definately helps reflect light off the dark circles under the eyes as well as for lightening any other dark areas on the face. I would still ... ...better coverage, especially on more mature or lined skin. I love the packaging, it's one of those items you feel proud to whip out of your make up bag! However I think there are many reasonably priced cosmetic items out there that will do two jobs in one and last you a very long time. ...

Pancake Face
Advantages: Very creamy, extreme coverage Disadvantages: too much looks cakey
...was first introduced to the Max Factor Pan Stik by my best friend when I was just 18. I was staying at her mum's glamourous bachelorette pad in London, and we were trying on her make up in order to act out scenes from Abigails Party. Looking back, it sounds like we were behaving more like we were 8 than 18, but they were happy days.....
When I first picked it up back then, I laughed out loud at the fact it was called Pan Stik - to me it sounded ... ...something I ever thought would be for me.
It was, as it is now, packaged in a small dark navy "lipstick-style" case, although its fatter than a lippy. Its not particularly snazzy in any way, which to be honest with you is kind of a good thing, as its fairly discreet for carrying about for those periodical touch-ups.
The texture of the stick is extremely creamy, almost oily. Its brilliant if you have dry skin, as it doesnt dry you out or gather ...
