Benefit Cosmetics concealer boi-ing came in sample size as a part of my Realness of Concealness kit. It comes as #2, which is medium. boi-ing is supposed to be a concealer for under your eyes to cover up your dark circles, but I found that it was also good at being a concealer along the […]

Benefit Cosmetics Lip Plump

I always choose not to read about a product before I test it out for myself. That way I am not biased when I review it—which lead me to believe that “lip plump” was a lip plumper. Don’t be fooled by the name, this product is a lip primer, not plumper.
Benefit Cosmetics Lip Plump is […]

Benefit Cosmetics Lemon-Aid

Benefit’s Lemon-Aid came in sample size in the Realness of Concealness that I purchased last week (and so worth the money). My friend Carla at Product Girl had raved about Lemon-Aid long ago and I have been wanting it ever since.

BADgal Blue Mascara

 
Benefit’s new BADGal blue mascara came into my inbox the other day. At first I blew off the email, I mean blue mascara? Didn’t I wear that in 1988 or something? I even remember wearing it in my hair (remember Pizzaz?)
However, what caught my eye was the benefits of wearing blue mascara that Benefit listed […]

Benefit Cosmetics Dr. Feelgood

Back in December I received Benefit Cosmetics’ Dr. Feelgood. Dr. Feelgood is an invisible balm meant to matte the skin by absorbing excess oil.
I tried this product by applying it two different ways; over my makeup and under my makeup. The site indicates that you should apply it over makeup.

Benefit Cosmetics: Moon Beam

When I was applying Moon Beam, my youngest son was in the bathroom watching me…because I can never seem to get away from the kids…he began to laugh at me as he thought I was putting nail polish on my cheeks. It is kind of funny that the product really does look like a bottle […]
