The Brand

Benefit was founded in San Francisco (USA) in the 70s. Instant beauty solutions, irreverent names and creative packaging best summarize the brand.
They however become famous when they created a rose flushed tint that was meant to be used as a nipple tint by a an exotic dancer. Kinky, right... ;)

​Until today, this is still one of their bestseller, although most people use it on their lips and chicks, but now you have another suggestion!
The best things about the brand (beside their products) is their universe. Glamour, retro but with humour, they want to awake the pin-up inside you, but without taking yourself too seriously. Their motto? Laughter is the best cosmetics, and I agree!

The Products 

Benefit has a  range of makeup and few skincare. They also specialized in Brow Beauty and created the Brow bar, a service dedicated to shape, wax, tweeze and tint eyebrows. 

The shop settings and the packaging scream cute. It's like being in a colorful and very tempting candy shop. But don't be fooled, their products don't only look nice, they work well. You will find beauty solutions, because the brand is all about creating quick-fix for beauty dilemmas, whether you have uneven brows, dull and pale skin or short lashes. However, don't forget that this is a makeup brand, so don't expect a specific skincare range. The latter is limited to hydration and illumination, which is the base of a nice makeup.

They also have the cutest gift sets and makeup kits, so if you have any birthdays or celebrations, think about them!

​they're Real push-up liner is a gel liner in a pen packaging. They come in several colors and are extra long lasting due to the gel formula. However I am a bit skeptical about the application because the gel formula is a bit thick so it can be harder to create a thin line. I also wonder if the product will age well. While trying them out, they were not so easy to apply and the line was not always perfect. However if you like your eyeliner quite thick, you might be interested to try these. 

Personal Favorites & Recommendation

  • Gimme BROW
    I have to be honest, I did not believe this one at first. I tried it during the opening and I was sold. It made my brow fuller, filled the gaps I had without looking unnatural. 

  • Posie Tint
    All the tint works exceptionally well, but my heart fell for this one because the pink color is absolutely gorgeous and flattering. They are incredibly long lasting and it will probably last you a very long time since you only a tiny bit. 

  • the POREfessional
    If you hate foundation or you are looking for a baby skin, this is the one. This primer create the perfect canvas for your makeup application but if you are not a fan of foundation or too late to put any, you can apply this alone and keep a perfect skin all day long. A must-have!

  • they're Real mascara
    My new Holy Grail mascara. Again, a got a sample from the opening event and tried it during my trip to Paris last month and I LOVE IT. This mascara creates the most incredible lashes, curls, lengthens and volumize at the same time for a false lashes effect.
