BeneFit Boi-ing

...read several reviews on the Benefit Bo-ing, and nearly everyone said the product was amazing for their dark circles, most people said that they only used it under their eyes because it was too thick to apply anywhere else, I was quite curious as to what the product looked like anywhere else on the skin so I was looking forward to receiving my Benefit Bo-ing through the post from Amazon for £11 and see what it looked like on discoloured areas on the ...
...wand and were liquid. The benefit bo-ing is a lot different it came in a black plastic circular pot, which almost looked like a giant eye shadow pot. The concealer comes in a baby pink cardboard box with black paper instructions which basically say the exact same thing as it says on the back of the box, so I found it a little bit pointless to be honest. The packaging isn’t too bad, it does look a little dull but I’m not really into bright colours ...

Review of BeneFit Boi-ing

...your final purchase. What Benefit say about this concealer: You name it, Boi-ing hides it! This industrial-strength concealer camouflages dark circles, shadow and discolouration for a seamless, natural-looking finish without creasing or folding. It's the concealer that goes the distance. ** Packaging ** The concealer I have comes in a black screw top pot, a bit like a lip balm, and the lid has a clear circle of plastic with the name Boi-ing on ...
...purchase this, and any other Benefit product on their website at www.benefitcosmetics.co.uk They are also available in big department stores, such as Debenhams and larger Boots stores also. The benefit (excuse the pun) of this brand, is that the price is the same regardless of where you buy it, unless you opt for ebay where Benefit is often sold cheaper. Boi-ing sells in the shops for £15.50 ** My Opinion ** This is the only Benefit product ...

Review of BeneFit Boi-ing

...the best I've come across. Benefit make massive claims about the effectiveness of this, saying: "Say good-bye to circles and shadows around your eyes with boi-ing. Our industrial-strength concealer camouflages those pesky "problems" without creasing, smudging, or wearing off." I have to admit that, compared to most of Benefit's other excitingly packaged products, Boi-ing may appear a tad on the dull side. It has recently been repackaged and now comes ...
...spoken to a couple of Benefit ladies, I believe most people opt for number 2, which is the shade I go for. It looks pretty dark in the pot, and at first I was dubious that this would blend with my olive-but-not-very-dark-in-winter skin as it looked a bit too orange toned, but I was really surprised that it matches perfectly. In fact, the fact that it is that little bit darker and does have some slight orange tones to it seems to help balance out ...

Review of BeneFit Boi-ing

...for use under the eyes. Benefit also claim that this concealer will disguise problem areas without creasing, smudging or wearing off. Usually the concealer would come packaged in a round plastic tub, but as mine was part of a kit, mine was actually just a small amount in a little tray inside the kit itself. It comes in three colours - light, medium and deep. Normally I would have chosen the light as I'm quite pale, however the one that comes with ...
...the skin. Like all Benefit products Boi-ing is not cheap and retails at a hefty £15.50. It can be purchased from Debenhams. Overall, this was OK. It gave good coverage and had good staying power. The one thing for me that would stop me from buying a full size tub, would be that strange shininess it gave to the skin after application. It may have been down to my skin type or something, as I don't recall having heard of anyone else having this problem, ...

Review of BeneFit Boi-ing

...more tired! That's where Benefit comes in! Benefit is a high end make up line, which is also fun! I'm always intimidated by the girls on the posh make up counters, such as Clinique, Lancome, etc. Everything is just so sterile, and unimaginative. Benefit is the opposite - with fun product names, cute packaging, and original ideas, it's definitely one of my favourite brands! I was discussing make up with a friend of mine (as you do!), and she mentioned ...
...I flicked through my little Benefit catalogue and found this Boi-ing that my friend had talked about. At first it didn't seem like much - 3g of concealer for a whopping £15? A hefty price tag for such a little thing, you might think. However, my faith in the brand prevailed, and so I handed over my £15 to the folks at Boots (and got triple Advantage Card points on it - excellent...). The girl on the counter tried a little bit of the product on my ...

...costs about £15.50 from the Benefit website, but can also be bought on the Boots, Debenhams and House of Fraser websites and at Benefit counters in those stores. I decided to splash out on this since I use loads of concealer to cover up my dark circles. At first I found it hard to blend with a brush as it's quite solid when you first pick it up with the brush. I found it easier to blend with my little finger since the heat from your fingertip will ...
...colour which at first can look too dark until you blend it all in. Thats the trick to Boi-ing, because it is so thick (as it is designed to give really good coverage) you have to make sure you spend time blending to make it look really natural. The coverage is excellent, you don't need much to cover up purpley shades under the eyes. Also for your money it seems like you get quite a lot, I've been using it daily for 2 months and you can hardly see ...

Review of BeneFit Boi-ing

...l bought a lot of Benefit products; they were simply bargains in comparison to the price one pays at home. With the dollar and pound rate being in favour of British shoppers l was getting the goods at just over half price. I needed a new concealer in my makeup bag, and after reading the Benefit catalogue l choose one called BOI – ING – strange name l will readily admit – but then most of the Benefit range are oddly named. I bought ...
...in the UK there are Benefit counters to be found in large Boots Stores and in Belfast l know Debhenams sells the range. So cost implications – l am quoting the dollar price here – it was $15 and at a rate of $1.88 (that’s what my credit card gave me at the time) that works out at around £7.98. In comparison to a Rimmel stick this is dear but l do feel the product is worthwhile. In the UK prices (now correct me if l am wrong) l ...

Review of BeneFit Boi-ing

...hard to walk past a Benefit counter without stopping to take a look. The bright, colourful point of display, quirky packaging and huge range of products always manages to draw me in and after trying a countless number of unsuccesful concealers I decided to finally give in and actually buy a product. Boi-Ing is marketed as an 'industrial strength' concealer and it definately lives up to it's promise. I have dark circles below my eyes naturally (thankyou, ...
...I need a really effective, heavy duty concealer to cover them. On the mornings I wake up with especially dark shadows, Boi-Ing is the concealer of my choice. It conceals effortlessly, with only a small amount. I apply with a flat, paddle shaped foundation brush, pressing gently in downwards strokes. Although, in cooler weather it can be more effective to use your fingertips as the warmth of your skin makes the thick, creamy formula easier to blend. ...

Review of BeneFit Boi-ing

...very, you'd think. But Benefit manages it. Seriously, how good is their marketing? 'Industrial strength concealer', they say. Now, would I have spent £15 on a 3g tub if it had been called 'really strong concealer' or even 'extra strength concealer'? No. But I read the label and I think 'Ooooh, INDUSTRIAL strength! That must be fantastic!'. It comes in a small black plastic compact. No fancy colours or designs. Just black. Plain. With 'Benefit' ...
...on our skin and is by far the best concealer I have used. Concealer may not be the most exciting of products to buy, but for me it's an essential and now Benefit have made it a product I can actually be enthusiastic about. It works! It actually works! ...

...to get a makeover by benefit in Harvey Nichols and this meant that the woman used the benefit products that suited out skin and fitted our entire make up routine to suit us. I had never really used concealer because normally I just cake foundation over any spots and hope for the best (but as you may already know this really isn't subtle and generally doesn't work. But, just my luck, because we had a ball and everyone would be looking there best ...
...if you go to the benefit stalls in the likes of Boots or Harvey Nichols then they are more than happy to tell you which shade you should be using. The concealer is quite pricey (£15.50) and it is quite a small amount that you get but don't be fooled it lasts ages because you don't need to apply too much and I find that it stays on all day. Another handy thing about this is that it is in the form of a miniature compact which means that it comes with ...

Review of BeneFit Boi-ing

I have been a Benefit fan for quite a while so I was quite keen to try 5 products at once by way of the Realness of Concealness kit. One of these products was Boi-ing. Sadly, I really didn't like it, and of the 5 in the RofC kit it was the worst one I tried. - It basically looked orange on my skin, though I'm quite pale so maybe the shade in the RofC kit was not the right one for me. I have been informed, though, that there are only three shades, ...
...doesn't slide off, so at least it has longevity going for it; and it may work well for some people even though it didn't for me. I would strongly recommend using a friend's or having your makeup done at a Benefit counter and trying it that way before splashing out. ...

...costs £15 in most shops. BeneFit products are available in most department stores, Space and Boots Beauty. The shade is less popular than the 02 shade so it sometimes isn't in stock. The concealer is by far the best available and does not come off all day. Compared to other concealers, it is a few pounds extra but definitely value for money as it lasts for ages and stays put! ...

...For the 3g individual pallettes benefit charges £15.50 each (benefit is quite expensive, but quality). However if you feel like trying some other benefit products but don't want to commit to a full sized version of each, you can get the 'Realness of Concealness' set containing 1.2g of medium shade boi-ing, as well as some 'Lemon Aid', 'Lip Plump', 'Ooh la lift' and 'High Beam', for £22.50. If you aren't sure whether Boi-ing would be right for your ...

You can buy Benefit products online from http://www.benefitcosmetics.co.uk and http://www.boots.co.uk (and some others, though these offer the best prices), and also instore from benefit counters at some boots stores, and also some john lewis and house of fraser stores. *My Verdict* This concealer has worked very well to cover the dark circles under my eyes, and so I give it 5/5. When the amount I got with my makeup set runs ...

Picture this: Me, weeks before my finals, suffering from the flu, trying to find a hand-bag for an interview... ...I looked dreadful. So when wandering through some department store or other on Oxford Street I must have looked like an easy target. Bustling through the crowds looking for "handbags" a shrill voice suddenly spoke to me: "Excuse me, madam! Would you like to try some of benefit's new products?" Anyway, to cut a long story short, my ...
...marketing exercise. And I'm really glad I did. When I got home that rainy day, handbag-less of course, my boyfirend said "You look much better." Thinking he was just trying to make me feel better, I ignored him. But later when I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror, I realised I agreed with him. Apart from the crazy pink all over my face that quite clearly didn't belong, there was something that just looked well-er about me. So the next time ...

At first i was unsure of the texture, feeling it was a bit too creamy, but it went onto my skin nicely and little was needed for excellent coverage. It stayed on all day and has an illuminating effect to make you look fresher and more awake which is always a bonus. One thing i did notice, is that eye makeup like to transfer onto the product and i ended up wiping ...
