"I'm glam... therefore I am"
Reviews
First of all, the only reason this isn't 5 stars is because of the size of the luminizer. The luminzer is about the size of half my pinky, so you can only use it like 3 times. Otherwhise, AMAZING!!!! The life on the a list lipgloss is thick and buttery and is a perfect nude/pink shade. The glammin face powder is a perfect blush/bronzer combo and when swirled, creates the most GORGEOUS golden peach. The badgal mascara is so frickin amazing!!!!!!! It lengthens, thickens and and looks like falsies(which is no easy task on my short Asian lashes). I will definitely purchase the full size. The luminizer is a light pink that comes out like a gold highlight on my skin tone. It looks so im a goddess lit from within! I love this!
Great on the go kit.
This is a great makeup set, the colours are great to do a calm smokey eye look, I use the blusher for my cheeks but very lightly so I dont over power it! The lip gloss is a perfect shade if you dont want to wear any lipstick and want to put on a glossy colour! Definitely worth getting as it comes with a mirror and all! I love it.
Great product
This is one of the first Benefit products that I got to try. I have to say that the packing is really cute. It comes with a full sized mirror in the box and it comes with a variety of products that you can use to create a full look. There are 4 eyeshadows each of the colours are great, really nice colour pay off and they do not crease when you use an eye primer with it. The shades had a nice subtle shimmer in them, fairly creamy consistency and also has a good lasting power. The Girl Meets Pearl Illuminizer is a very nice shade, it has a slight hint of pink to it, but when you put it on it gives you a nice glowy highlight to your face. It dries fast and also lasts for a long time. The Face powder/blush is a nice combination of shimmer between a pink shade and a more peachy shade. When you apply it to your cheeks it gives you a very nice subtle flush to your cheeks. The Bad Gal Lash mascara is a mascara that is good if you like have more natural looking lashes. It does not build too well, it separates your lashes nicely. When it comes to holding the curl, it is more of a wet mascara so it can flatten the curl. It doesn't really make your lashes look more voluminousness or longer in length, I think there are better volumizing mascaras on the market. My favourite thing in the whole kit is the lip gloss, it is a great slightly shimmery peachy nude pink colour. The smell is fantastic, smells like a juicy peach candy! It is great formula, not too sticky and long lasting and it goes on really smoothly. I would definitely repurchase the lip gloss in a full size. I think this kit is a great start to trying Benefit makeup, it gives you a idea of what the brand is like when it comes to all the different products that it has. Also this product is a nice gift for something that is a beginner to makeup, there are instructions on how to use the products in the box and it is also great for someone that already has experience with makeup, it's has a lot of fun products and nice shades. I'm really glad that I was able to try this product and I would recommend it.
A Box of Sheer Smokey Magic!
I am a glam kinda girl, so one glance at this and it had to be mine! Its no secret that i am a Benefit Blush-aholic so i saw this had one i didn't have as well. Its a very cute box set with bright eye popping neon Pink, Green & Silver, and retails for $36.00. I picked mine up at my local Ulta and have been playing with this set since. its a great set for travel, or to add to a ever growing makeup collection! This is a soft smokey eye set with a nude gloss.
-CUTE DESIGN, Compact, Easy to store & great package deal for all items. - Variety of items to try included a new featured item (Girl meets pearl) - Sheer build-able eye shadows -Moisturizing lipgloss & very pretty peachy nude -Pearl creme highlight for on the go that guilds on with ease -Gorgeous blush color what would complement all skin tones -Comes with a mirror build in BUT breaks very easily (replaced mine already)
In the end, it was a fabulous investment! I am very happy with this purchase, and if your new to Benefit products i HIGHLY recommend starting out with a box set like this one or similar. All the box sets come with a nifty How to picture step by step guide on how to use each item contained within. For the price you are saving a ton and you also get a cute decorated box!
