What do we think of Benefit make up?

[Bringbackmybonnietome]

I have just bought a 'Dallas' bronzer for £22.50!!!

But I love it.

I love all their stuff. I hang around the counter touching it and coveting it.

Is it just good packagning and marketing, or do yu think the products are good?

It is nice. I only buy makeup once a year (usually! I might get tempted...!) but when I do, I choose carefully!

I buy it twice a year, birthday and christmas with my vouchers! Although mascara is bought more often because of the endless quest.

Personally think it is too greasy and heavy. It brought me out in spots so I steer clear.

i use boing

and 10 which is bronzer and shimmer...on my cheeks and love it

would like to try dallas... is it a good bronzer? i like decent colour!!!

I like their zit cover stuff.

lemonaid is good for red eyes boing is good

oooh 10 looks good

Oh, and the Foundation Faker is excellent even for my pale skin (and highly adorable packaging) but I have truly fallen for mineral foundation now

I like Dandelion, and even though it's quite expensive, it lasts over a year using it every day.

I don't like the Bad Gal Lash - Max Factor Masterpiece is my favourite.

I have the Realness of Concealness kit with mini products in and even that has lasted a long time - it has Lemon Aid and Boing in (would get the Lemon Aid, the concealer's a bit dark for me), High Beam (love) and two other things I don't use.

Lauriefairycake, I had half my face done in Dandelion (is that the pink one?) and half in Bluff Dust (the yellow one) and the Dandelion side looked awful but I now use Bluff Dust whenever I don't use tinted moisturiser (Laura Mercier). You might give it a go! Not many people seem to use it but it really works for me.

I also like That Gal which is a primer but I wear on its own sometime. It's pink but doesn't make me look weird. And I like Ooh La Lift and their body stuff too.

I don't like the mascara (got Bad Gal Blue) - the colour is ok but it runs. I live in Blinc Kiss Me, the tubey one, though. Never got on with Lemon Aid either but I have sensitive flakey eyes.

Love it

some kind a gorgeous is marvelous - it gives enough cover to smarten you up and not enough to make you look like you've got slap on. I used it with Dandelion.

Agree with everyone who says it lasts ages, it does.

Buy it online from the states based website, far cheaper.

I've got this. V good. The packaging is gorgeous.

Never tried the mascara, I use (and LOVE) Dior Diorshow mascara.

I also love Benetint. I've been pretty well satisfied with everything I've bought from Benefit. If they still make Ooh La Lift, it is a treasure for when your eyes look tired and saggy.

love it, fantstic stuff

pakcaging great
stuff itself - ok ish
you cna do a lot better tbh

adn the colour range in say eyeshadow is pretty poor.
i was given a high beam the otherone of that ilk and variosu unctions...give me mac anyday.

I use my Benefit stuff in lieu of proper make-up. The stuff I have is pretty foolproof and quick and easy to apply. It takes me from looking like a particularly grim zombie to looking human rather than zombie to all made up.

I love it - apart from the mascaras, I'm a Lancome Hypnose girl for that. I have far too much to list, as I may have a fit at how much it's all cost me

I do like Mac though, it's just that there isn't a counter anywhere near me, and I like to gaze at all the pretty colours before I buy something!. Mac habit increased rather rapidly when someone linked to this girl

Would never buy coloured stuff from there (eyeshadow, lippies etc, and the mascara is rubbish - must try Diorshow, so many good reviews) but the skin/base stuff is good - new Erase Paste is working out v well, also F.Y.Eye or LemonAid as eyeshadow base.

Dandelion is good, but I prefer Georgia (same thing but peach not pink - lovely on blondes i think)

I love benetint for lips and cheeks
and their concealer is good

This is a stupid question but...

can I use Benetint over a powder (like Bluff Dust) or should I use it under (but then won't the powder over it up)?

I have this image of getting a goopy glop of powder and Benetint on my face. I once mixed together some hair styling stuff with conditioner and got this weird rubbery mess - somehow I only noticed once I had put it through my hair. Blergh.
