Benefit products - what do you recommend?

[EdenCalling]

I gave only tried benetint which I really like. I want to treat myself to some new make up and would appreciate any pointers :)

Will have a look.

I've bought Lanacane in Tesco and Sainsburys - IIRC near ant-histamine ( bites, stings, anti-hayfever treatments)

but if you want to rummage through pile cream too, hey feel free

use nars instead, benefit stuff is quirky and rubbish and dries up really quickly.

:)

The Lanacaine is very good. And dd found a smidge helped her get her high heels on smoothly.

I'm not usually a fan of benefit make up at all, I feel you are paying more for the fancy packaging than you are for the fairly average make up. Having said that I have tried gimme brow and really liked it. It's great if you have ok brows but just need them a bit darker and more defined.

I love love love Rockateur their new blusher.

If you like Benetint and PosieTint, 2True in Superdrug do it for about 4 a bottle.

The only product I really is highbeam highlighter. I love the effect and it lasts ages. I feel benefit products are very average for the price. I prefer mac and revlon. It might be worth you buying one of thier box sets, you get around five mini products for £25ish, so its a good way to try stuff out and see what you like.

I got my Brow Zing in the darker shade - at how tiny it is.

It's really good, I did think " Bum, I should've just bought a mascara and used that" but it doesn't leave my eyebrows crispy like a mascara would (I used to use clear mascara )
Even my DD was impressed at my brows

^^^^^^^^

Big fat lie

GIMME BROW not Brow Zing

I bought their new base today 'The Big Easy' and it's fab! It markets itself as 'more than a BB cream' but it's good coverage and basically a foundation but a bit thicker. I was planning to buy the Oxygen Wow foundation I've bought before but this it's at least as nice. Main draw is it's SPF35, which is my main requirement in a foundation to have a high SPF - the oxygen one has spf25 which is the highest I'd found so far.

Anyone else tried it? Quite pricey at £27.50 same as Oxygen Wow (or YSL...) so hoping it looks as good when I apply it myself and it doesn't give me spots like most SPF products.
