BeneFit Benetint

-OVERVIEW- Benetint by Benefit is a very popular and very expensive cheek and lip stain. Stains are an alternative to blusher and lipstick, as they give a liquid stain to the skin and lips, in natural tones and shades. The advantage stains have over blusher are that stains are alot more long-lasting and give a more natural rosy look, as opposed to the powdery dramatic looks blusher can achieve. Benetint is one of the best selling cheek and lip ...
...-OUTLETS- Benefit products are available in most major department stores, and large Boots stores. As it is such an expensive company, you're not likely to find it in the local town shopping centre, and should try the higher market end, like major shopping malls and larger department stores such as Debenhams. You can also try Ebay but be wary as people tend to sell sample products in ofcourse sample sizes, and magnify the image to fool people. So ...

Review of BeneFit Benetint

...in lots of boots stores, benefit stores, ebay (where I got my baby) and the benefit UK website which I love to check up on every once in a while www.benefitcosmetics.co.uk -Packaging- As the case with most benefit cosmetics, the packaging is positively delightful. It comes in a cute cylindrical glass bottle with a white plastic cap. It fits nicely into any handbag or makeup bag and although the huge plastic cap makes it look bigger than it is I ...
...for months! Bear in mind that this is quite the cult beauty product and has won numerous beauty awards. I saw this in at least 5 beauty magazines before fishing deep into my wallet to purchase it. -Does it work?- It claims to be 'the sexiest flush you can get from a bottle' and I think it does! It lasts for ages and gives your cheeks a natural, dewy pink look- like you've just come back from a little exercise. It works for most occasions, and ...

Review of BeneFit Benetint

I had never heard of Benefit cosmetics until one spring day in 2004 when I went into Debenhams with my mother to look for a pair of shoes. We decided to take a de-tour to the shoe isle via the make-up counters and that's when we both, simultaneously, felt a strange allure to the vibrant, fun looking counter that was Benefit. We were 'just looking' when the assistant asked if we'd ever tried the brand before. Neither of us had so she offered us a ...
...of the products, and although I could have bought everything in sight that would have left me bankrupt. However, the makeover was complementary so we figured why not? I opted for the natural-looking products and one of these was Benetint (a liquid blush). It doesn't look up to much and after I selected it I almost put it back but the assistant said I should give it a try as it is one of the brands best-sellers. I sat down and she opened what looked ...

Review of BeneFit Benetint

...that THEY NOW HAVE A BENEFIT COUNTER. Obviously I bought Benetint (and a few other essential items) and charged it all to my account card to be dealt with later. The 13.5ml jar cost me £21.50. Yes, £21.50. For blusher. You read correctly. That is VERY expensive for me. But there's something about Benefit that I can't resist. Benetint comes in a nice little red box in a nice little see through bottle so you can see how much Benetint you have left ...
...washed off with soap :) Benefit are not kidding when they say 'blend quickly'. If you don't, you'll end up with three red dots on each side of your face. I found that I loved having sexy rosy cheeks. I can't stress enough how perfectly it goes on. I had a lovely, natural, rosy glow. The best bit is - because it's a stain, it doesn't come off very easily like cream or powder makeup does. I've walked around with the wind hitting off my face and my ...

Review of BeneFit Benetint

I first came across Benefit Cosmetics a few Christmas' ago when I recieved a Kitten Sparkle Puff as a gift. Living in a small town, I'd never heard of Benefit before and soon did some internet searches to find out more. I'm now a self confessed Benefit addict! Benefit Cosmetics are the brainchild of Jean & Jane Ford, two identical twin sisters from San Fransisco. Their products such as Benetint, Dr FeelGood, Show-Offs, Moon Beam & "Touch me then ...

Review of BeneFit Benetint

...have tried many products by Benefit such as their eye shadow's, blushers (wow!), mascara and eyeliner. What drew my attention to the Benefit counter in the first place was their unusual designs on the product packages which are far different from many others on the market. The designs are instantly eye catching! Not only this… but many magazines rave about their products, so I definitely had to give them a try. I heard BeneTint by Benefit was supposed ...
...You can buy BeneTint from Benefit counters which you will in Department Stores such as Debenhams. You can also order your product online, directly from their website. ** I hope you enjoyed my review. Obviously, every girl goes for a different look when it comes to make-up. I would highly recommend this product and many others by Benefit. If you happen to pass a Benefit counter, I would have a little nosey. I can guarantee you won't be disappointed ...

Review of BeneFit Benetint

...products. Benetint was the first Benefit product I tried and at the time, it was THE thing to own. It seemed this rosy-red cheek and lip stain was the trick of every celebrity and various make-up artists. Now, I have to say a product loses its status somewhat when you discover that everyone seems to own it. In Benetint's case, the spread of its appeal only reinforces its standing as a cult product that actually has worth beyond celebrity endorsement. ...
...red and has the stylish Benefit logo emblazoned on both box and 'pot'. It smells divine - primarily because its made of a rose-petal derived formula - somewhat reminiscent of rose flavoured turkish delight; but its not as sweet and sickly as all that. The idea is that you use it to create a cute-girly glow on the cheeks and a seductive red tinge to the lips. The effect is soooooo natural. If you've ever completed some gruelling exercise, come back ...

Review of BeneFit Benetint

...during my gander at the Benefit counter! I'm always attracted to Benefit, sadly not due to the great prices, but due to the colourful and intricate patterning of packages... forget your rich looking Clinique in the typical light green cases... ah no, multi colourer and beautiful little designs of people, girls, bags, bubbles, all different things decorate the shelves of Benefit! I'd read about Benetit before now but been a bit wary of the idea of ...
...£21.50 in Boots and all Benefit counters that I've come across (Debenhams, Browns, Selfridges, etc.) it's quite an extravagent little item! There's 15ml in the bottle which isn't a great deal, about the same as a bottle of nail varnish. The magical thing with Benetint is that the saying "a little goes a long way" really does apply! The smallest amount on the brush will suffice to coat your both your cheeks and even have a little left over for your ...

...their website on www.benefitcosmetics.com. Benefit is a quirky and trendy cosmetics company. In the UK market they are not know for being inexpensive. Benefit is definitely of the moment, and the cool gear to be found in your makeup bag. The product names are outlandish – Dr Feel Good, Bo-oing or Hollywood Glo being a few. The packaging is what l would call cartoon esk. Think of Lush with an American slant on things. So back to the product ...
...modestly packaged (compared to other Benefit products) red cardboard box to find a bottle reminisant of a large-scale nail varnish bottle. The product can be seen sloshing about inside – a deep scarlet red in colour. Opening the white screw cap a brush – again like nail varnish protrudes. Taking a whiff there is a smell not unlike rose water – you know as a child gathering rose petals dousing them in water to make your own perfume. ...

Review of BeneFit Benetint

I love Sephora, if only for the fact that it's a store that allows customers to go in and try the products before they buy them. One day, I was visiting Sephora with my mom and was up to my usual business of eagerly trying on new makeup that was well beyond the price range of my 16 year old's allowance. If you've never been to Sephora, they have these little counters set up with a mirror and all the bits you need to try on different kinds of makeup, ...
...to try out. On one of these little shelves sat a small glass bottle filled with a red liquid. "Benetint," it said. I looked at the bottle for a bit, not quite comprehending what it was for, until it dawned on me to look at the box, at which point I felt exceptionally stupid. Benetint is a so-called "liquid" blush, which is applied to the cheeks with something that looks like a nailpolish brush and rubbed in for a sexy, rosy glow that doesn't look ...

Review of BeneFit Benetint

...cute little bottle, and because Benefit claimed it was 'often repeated, never duplicated'. Well, I wanted to see if it was as great as everyone made it out to be, so I quickly got down to Selfridges and I am now the proud owner of a bottle of Benetint. And it's only £21.50. WHAT THE f***? Yeah, that's pretty much what I thought. But don't just hit your backspace button right yet, because it's great, and it lasts ages, I can tell that already. ...
...The sales assitsant at the Benefit counter tried this out on me alongside with the highlighter product, 'High Beam'. She put a cross os High beam on each cheek, and three dots of Bentint along each cheekbone. She then blended this for a healthy, glowy and flushed effect. I was sold. I bought the Benetint, and my 'want' monster is now trying to convince me to buy the High Beam as well. Since I bought this product I have experimented with ways of ...

Review of BeneFit Benetint

Let's start with the price; Benetint - a lip and cheek stain - costs £21.50 which is pretty expensive for a 15ml bottle of liquid, however, I have had this for well over a year and still have plenty left. The product itself comes in a nail varnish style bottle (7cm high and just under 3cm wide). The bottle is made of glass, so I don't like to travel with it - just in case it gets smashed! The lid is made of white plastic. When you twist it off, ...
...attached. The instructions state that the longer the brush is, the less intense the colour will be. You can trim the brush if you find that you want a more intense look from the product. The product inside the bottle has the consistency of water - be careful not to knock the bottle over as the colour of the liquid is a very deep red (it comes in one colour only)! The liquid smells lovely - like roses (it contains rosewater), which is a plus if you ...

Review of BeneFit Benetint

...It smells like roses. Benefit suggest that you put 3 dots on each cheekbone and blend it in. You need to blend it in immediately before it dries, as it then becomes hard to get an even finish. However, when it is properly applied - wow! Every time I wear it someone tells me that I am looking well or pretty. It gives a natural flush, as if I had blushed. Best of all, it is incredibly long lasting. Once it has dried it doesn't budge until you remove ...
...has stood up to a 2 hour rehearsal today. You can also use it on your lips, but it doesn't last as long here. It also looks good with lipgloss in a clear or paler colour layered over it. I'm not sure if it would suit everyone's skin tones, but on me it is perfect. I'm a pale skinned brunette and it gives that 'Snow White' look. The main drawback is the price, but it is long lasting and very effective. However, other cheaper brands (e.g. MeMeMe, ...

Review of BeneFit Benetint

...personally I wouldn’t! BeneFit are the company who have created the best lip balm that I have ever tried. As a self-confessed lip-balm addict, I have tried so many lip balms in search of the perfect one. BeneFit have come up with the solution. After any years of buying lip balms costing two or three pounds, I can honestly say that spending more on a lip balm gives you a much more superior product. The actual lip balm is very creamy in texture ...
...and very much like a moisturiser that you might use for your body tinted or face, which, I suppose, is the whole point really i.e. treat your lips as you would treat your skin – moisturise them. It comes in a tube that has a small sponge on the end of the inside of the lid (like many lipglosses do). This makes it very easy to dispense and control how much you apply – no more of those Vaseline style pots, which make you get the balm all ...

...wear it! enter the Benefit Benetint era, and Bingo! my lips are saved! now i can definitely say i have found a product that i feel comfortable wearing almost everyday. I first saw Benetint in numerous magazines, and always wondered if it was just one of those gimmicks that magazines tried to promote to you..until i tried a little at my local department store! the make up artist knew exactly how to use the product and informed me that it could be ...
...price-wise as a student, i have to admit it might feel like you're breaking the bank for a measly blusher/liptint, but i assure you, it is MORE than that..it is a perker-upper, when you've had a mere 4 hours sleep or so (and LOOK like it too!) the usual price for the benetint as pictured here is usually £22.50, and if you buy from say debenhams/boots you'll get loyalty points to boot...which helps boost your buying confidence i guess! i ended up ...
