“Luscious
skin, softly blushing cheeks, dewy lips – suits every women of every age!”
Enter “Benetint” for this!
Benefit say;
“The sexiest flush you can get from a
bottle, innocent yet provocative, our rose-tinted lip and cheek stain is
see-through colour that endures it all… even the thralls of passion.” All you
need to do it “Brush three strokes on the apples of your cheeks and blend
quickly with fingertips. Apply on lips and blend, for a deeper “pop” of colour
repeat.”
And, I couldn’t agree more! This is the first blush in my life that not just
looks charming with my acne scars peeking through but also lasts for 7 hours+
on my combination skin, with just a sheer coverage Garnier BB Cream beneath!
This is an achievement for me because even with primers underneath, blushes usually
don’t last so much on me. I know its winters but still!
I’m so glad for having purchased this KIT. This
smaller sized “Benetint” is a 4ml product but I’m sure even this will last me
quite long and I would never be able to finish it! Although people with medium
skin tones will require more amount.
-
Benefit Benetint is water based stain and
very thin in consistency.
-
It smells strongly of roses but the scent
dies within a few minutes.
-
It didn’t cause any acne or bumps, which
I thought may occur on my sensitive acne skin due to its strong fragrance
-
The shade is a soft rosy shade that goes
sheer at first. This is great because there are less chances of looking like a
clown then. Colour intensity can always be built up in layers.
-
It’s not at all sticky or oily.
-
It goes on smoothly and blends very
easily too.
-
With just a sheer coverage bb cream
beneath on my combination skin, this lasted for more than 8 hours. I’m not
saying the intensity was as fresh as freshly applied. Fading was definitely there,
but I could still see it on my cheeks. The fading wasn’t uneven thankfully!
-
However on lips, it stays for 2-3 hours
after which it vanishes. I like to wear it with a transparent gloss on top
since I’m having dry lips these days. If you have dry lips, make sure to apply
a balm beneath otherwise it can appear patchy, like in mine case.
-
The bottle is quite sturdy! Recently, my
hands have become like butterfingers. I keep dropping things every now and
once, I dropped this too. There wasn’t even a crack!
I love how this stain looks so good and natural
(exactly like how my cheeks look when I dance) on me. I never leave my black eye
liner but with this on my cheeks and lips, I skip it. I just tightline my upper
lash line. But I like using it only when I’m having good skin days.

How
I Use It: After applying base, instead of dotting it on my
cheekbones, I draw a straight line using the brush and then, blend it using my
fingers. One has to be quick lest the stain dries leaving a streak on your
face! I do this three times each on my cheeks. It looks overdone at that moment
for my fair skin but after 10 minutes, it mixes with my skin oil and the result
is not made up. This happens with every blush of mine, if I don’t apply a
strong base and mattifying gel beneath. Please make sure you apply this in the
right lighting.
I love everything about this stain, except for the
price! I know it’s a high end brand par
dil hai ki maanta nahi!
