Benefit Cosmetics: Product Review

Hey dolls!

So I got a freelance makeup artist position with Benefit Cosmetics, and over the weekend of Sept. 15-18th I freelanced for an event they were having at the Southern Women's Show in Charlotte NC. I had so much fun making over people and using their products! Their products are great and give instant results. So after the event, we were able to take home 5 of the testers we were using throughout the event. And so below are the five products I chose to take home.


1. Brows A-Go-Go
This is like the ultimate brow kit. I loved using this product on customers because the perfect brows creates the perfect face. Even if you don't have a full face of makeup on, having perfect brows, makes a big difference. This kit includes a light and a dark powder, a wax, a brow highlight powder (similar to Benefit's product "High Brow"), and Eye Bright powder, tweezers, an angle brush and pencil. I love it! Must have!

2. Dallas (Bronzer/Blush)
I absolutely loved this product. It works on women of all complexions. I also love to use this color as eyeshadow too. Its the perfect tan/mauve color that just gives a pop to the cheeks!

3. Girl Meets Pearl
This product is another must have for the kit! It is a liquid pearl highlighter that can be used on the cheekbones, and any where else on the face that you choose to highlight! It can also be mixed with Pore-fessional (face primer) to add a natural glow to the face.

4. The Pore-Fessional
This product is another fav of mine. I used it on every client that weekend. It is a face primer that helps diffuse fine lines and pores on the face. It creates a very smooth and even texture to the face. It can be used before you apply your foundation, after you apply your foundation or you can mix it with your foundation. This product gives instant results. It can also be worn alone, without any foundation at all!

5. You Rebel
You Rebel is a tinted moisturizer with SPF15. It comes it two shades (light and dark; the lighter version comes in a tan bottle). This is a great substitute for foundation. I will definitely add this to my kit for those clients who prefer and even look without having to wear foundation!
