You Rebel Lite or normal You Rebel ?

Benefit website isn't terribly informative !

I am brunette with dark eyes and medium/fair complexion. Is the 'Lite' version too pale, more for the milky skinned blonde end of the spectrum ?

Or do I scrap Benefit altogether and go with Dior, only £1 more expensive and I already use a Dior moisturiser

The idea with You Rebel was that it blended with just about everyone's skin tone. I am also brunette with green eyes and am quite fair- I used the original You Rebel and it was fine- I looked slightly bronzed but asked several honest friends and family members and they all thought it was fine. When they brought out the Lite I went for that and it gives me a more English Rose appearence (well, Scottish Rose!). So I'd say go for the original as you sound darker than me and it was fine on me! Phew! Convoluted post! Benefit cosmetics are fab, btw- great quality and packaging. It's got SPF too. I love it. x

What sort of skin type would you say it was for really ?

I'm sure benfit say 'suitable for all' but they very rarely are....

you rebel is supposed to be for all skin colours, but the regular one on me comes out way too orange, even though it's supposed to blend to your own skin tone.
