Which Benefit products should I try?

I noticed this evening that Sephora have a sale on until NYD and, after a bit of poking around on their site, realised that they carry quite a few Benefit things!

It's a brand I've heard good things about but I've never tried the products myself - does anyone have any recommendations? Smile Flowers

Benetint and moonbeam

Their eyebrow fixing gel and eyebrow colour wand (have forgetten names) are the best!

Benebalms, benetints, high beam and dandelion powder are faves of mine, I use them all most of the time, but the no 1 for me is They're Real mascara! Love it!

Porefessional, lollitint lip balm, mascara are my favourites. All their stuff is great though.

As above but would add Lemon Aid for the natural bright eye look.

turdfairynomore · 31/12/2014 00:34

I like their liquid foundation (hello flawless??) and Dallas blusher.

porefessional is ok. I think most of it is a wee bit overpriced and good marketing.

ZacharyQuack · 31/12/2014 00:57

Their cream eyeshadows are great. I love Birthday Suit, RSVP and Skinny Jeans.

Love dandelion powder

callamia · 31/12/2014 08:23

I like lemon aid, but the rest i think is a bit style over substance.
I've had tons over the years, but I've rarely bought seconds.

Lemonaid and a couple of the face highlights and blushers. Avoid the mascara and that new so called 'award winning' eyeliner. It's terrible.

Bare Minerals is a good brand at a similar price

They're Real Mascara is a love it or hate it. It's hard to layer without clogging and it's a swine to remove
I've bought full size and the mini one (they sell the smaller one in Boots , I've seen it at the pay counters).
I got a kit of minis (Porefessional, Bad Gal in black and Lollitint. I bought a full sized Bad Gal mascara but not the others)

Bad Gal Plum makes me look pink eyed - not the look I was after Hmm

I have the tiny mascara type eyebrow wand (Gimme Brow) but it seems to have vanished off to my DD bedroom) It works well but you need to apply it properly.

Lemon Aid is a great eye primer / colour corrector for the eye area.

I also like Dr Feelgood primer as a mattifier on the days when I'm not going to wear tinted moisturiser.

FozzieMK · 31/12/2014 12:54

I love their Fake Up concealer for under eyes.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 31/12/2014 12:58

Benetint and Posytint both excellent.

Skinheadmermaid · 31/12/2014 14:41

I do like the porefessional and high beam.
I recently treated myself to 'they're real' mascara as a christmas present to myself. It is good but its only ever so slightly better then the miss manga one I was using and its hard to remove, so i've lost a few eyelashes from wearing it.
Not very impressed.
Bad gal mascara is rubbish, I tried a mini.
