I benefit from benefit

Benefit make-up


So this is a blog about benefit make up, and hence the title I benefit well my face does from using benefit make up!

I mainly focus on fashion but thought I would also do a post about my favourite make up brand and items! Then after this I promise I'll stick to fashion :)

Sooooo.. here are all my benefit items


Firstly, lips! I've wanted a lipstick I can wear during the day that isn't too bright and quite subtle but still adds a bit of colour. So the top left is the lipstick I know it's a bit messy oops! Ok so I know it looks quite bright and red but it isn't! It's more of a coral and does not go on as bright as it looks! And it's partly my camera as I took it on my phone. The lipstick is called tutti-cutie I believe!

Also in this picture is the posie balm. I wanted a lip balm as whilst I am at work my lips become quite dry and the balms by benefit also have a slight tint of colour in too which is perfect! I don't want to wear lipstick to work as I don't want it to smudge or anything as I can't top it up and also my lips become quite dry when I wear lipstick. However, the posie balm solves all these problems! Prevents my lips from becoming dry whilst also adding a slight hint of colour to my lips.


 Next up we have.. eyes and face!
 So the top left is brow zings! I've always wanted to fill my eyebrows but didn't want them to look too dark/fake I still wanted a natural sort of look and brow zings does that! I can fill them in as light/dark as I want. I also didn't want such a distinct sharp line of my brows and wanted them to look natural still but add a bit of colour to them too so I got the medium brow zings. Next is the world famous neutrals. One of my first benefit products and it's my favourite eye shadow palette ever!I have 4 shadows and 2 more liquid type colours which are really shimmery and glittery which you apply before the eye shadows. I have used it so many times and I've hardly made a mark on them they also stay on for ages too so don't have to worry about them once I've done it! Neutrals are my favourite colour to wear in eye shadows!
Finally is the pore fessional! The UK's #1 best selling primer I believe?
But anyway.. must have! It's fab!

And finally.. the best! My first two benefit products! My mum introduced me to benefit as the was using the foundation and once I found it, it was goodbye Loreal and hello Benefit!
I have honey. When I was looking in the shop the lady ended up putting it all on me and it looked amazing. Due to the foundation been a liquid I got the powder to match and not only does it make my foundation stay on longer it matches my skin tone so well! So happy it keeps my make up on whilst working as I can't top it up until I finish or go for my break but the powder does certainly make a difference!


So since saying hello to Benefit and goodbye to cheaper high street make up brands I have spent a lot more money but I have definitely benefited from using Benefit make up so the price is definitely worth it!

Hello flawless!

  1. That's a great post. I agree that we sometimes need to buy good make-up even if it's a bit on a pricier side.

    1. Thank you! I did used to love high street brands and thought they were brill for the price but after trying more expensive things I have realised the difference and do think the price is for the quality! :) xx
