I was lucky
enough to be treated by my gorgeous boyfriend last week. I didn’t ever expect
he’d get a gift SO right, but he wandered in to work one evening with a Debenhams
bag and presented me with this. I was over the moon! I’m going to review every
product separately and I’m so excited to try all 10 products out. This would
obviously make an idea Christmas gift for a beauty loving family member or
friend, but I’m allowed to play with mine now, so, here’s what I got!
the POREfessional mini
primer | 7.5ml
-
This is one I’ve already tried and I’m in love with
it. I don’t feel like I’ve got very large pores but I’ve loved how my skin
feels immediately after application and it creates the perfect airbrush look
for my makeup base.
they’re real! mini
mascara
-
Again, I’ve got the full size and I’m gutted with how
quickly I seem to have blitzed through it. This is a cheeky little booster
which will hopefully see me through until I can buy another full size tube!
BADgal lash mini mascara
-
Here’s one I’m really excited about. This one is extremely
volumizing and, as far as I can tell, is a huge hit among the blogging
community. Benefit calls it an instant set of false lashes; win!
instant comeback facial
serum mini
-
“Benefit Instant Comeback face serum instantly boosts
the youthful look of skin...firming, smoothing, energising and protecting
against visible signs of aging. The fast-absorbing formula with tri-radiance
complex plumps & deep-hydrates so tired skin feels refreshed &
revitalised...and looks more radiant. Benefit Instant Comeback Facial Serum
dramatically boosts the effectiveness of any skincare routine.”
“That Gal” brightening
face primer
-
“Our silky pink primer takes your complexion from dull
to darling! Simply blend it on for the look of brighter, smoother skin.
Contains light-reflecting pigments to help brighten all skin tones and
raspberry & camomile to soothe skin.”
dandelion mini blusher
-
I’ve already fallen head over heels with this just by
looking at the gorgeous pink peach shade in the palette. I can’t believe I
haven’t tried this one before; it is the perfect blush shade for me, and
especially with winter around the corner it’ll perk up my pale skin just nicely
and subtly.
sun beam mini
highlighter | 2.5ml
-
This golden bronze highlighter gives you a natural,
sunkissed radiance. Dot & blend over makeup on to cheeks for a bronzed glow
that complements all skintones. It’s liquid sunshine in a bottle!
posietint mini lip and
cheek tint | 2.5ml
-
Posietint is probably the one I’ll get least use out
of, but only because it seems like a very very pigmented and vibrant pink shade
which isn’t what I’m used to. It’s a cheek and lip tint, which again, is
something very foreign to me and my makeup routine, but obviously I’m intrigued
and maybe I’ll fall in love!
ooh la lift mini instant
under-eye brightening boost
-
Benefit Ooh la Lift Instant Under-Eye
Brightening Boost contains raspberry extracts and light-reflecting pigments to
instantly perk up tired eyes. Can be applied on bare skin or over makeup.
stay don’t stray makeup
and eyeshadow primer in light/medium
-
This
dual-action power primer works 360° around the eyes to make concealers AND
eyeshadows STAY PUT. Concealers don't crease, eyeshadows stay vibrant and true.
All in all, a
wonderful lot from Benefit, and a perfect gift for makeup addicts. My personal
favourites and things I’m most excited about are the Dandelion blush, the
Sunbeam Bronzer and That Gal Brightening Primer. Elliot also managed to bag me
a couple of brilliant samples; the Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow foundation to try
(in my shade!! How??) and three sachets of the skincare by Benefit, which I’m
actually worried I’m going to adore and have to buy! Eek!
Such a Great Set!! Want one for myself!
