Benefit’s – Benetint

I don’t know since when, there is suddenly a big hype about this Benetint from Benefit. And of course, I must find a chance to try this out too!

This bottle looks very much like a bottle of nail polish to me, and it smells so much like the rose syrup, I was so tempted to taste it!

First of all, you need to shake the bottle well before you apply it. Then, just dap a few drops on your cheek, the liquid dries out pretty fast, so, you must work fast to blend it nicely.

When you blend it evenly, you get the nice cheek flush! The flush looks very natural, the color is quite fade, so, I am not sure whether it can be seen clearly on darker skin or not. Otherwise, you can just apply a few more drops on the area you want.

The color can last for quite long on your cheeks, and so, make sure the spot of your blush on your cheek before you dap and blend it. Cause the color cannot be rubbed off easily after you applied.

Of course, the color will stay on your finger tip after you blend it on your cheek. Just leave it that way I guess? It will go off after some time.

A bottle of 12.5ml is retailing at RM125 or RM129. Not really a budget buy I would say. What says you?

Benefit counter is available at most major departmental store.

Hmmm for some reason, everytime I put the Benetint on my lips, I tend to look like I’m very “heaty” :p

Oh, and I’d recommend buying Benefit products online. I bought my Dandelion from the Benefit website, and after the adding in the shipping costs, it came up to RM117. Over here, it’s RM129 (or is it RM139? I remembered it’s RM1-something-9). Buying over $100 gives you free shipping too. Perhaps you can share with a friend? 😉

I dun have benetint. But i do have pocket pal. I chose to buy pocket pal since it is smaller and easy for me to carry it in my handbag. But for more cost effective, the benetint give you more value for money.

Application is quite tricky. The syrup thingy need to be rub quickly otherwise it will look like some kind of stain on your cheek.

Perhaps you may want to try “CUpid Bow” , “That Gal” and “Speedy Brow” oh and not forgetting the “Bluff Dust”

Mrs Imran: Yah, i agree, the syrup dries off pretty fast, so need to have quick fingers. I think I will go visit their counter again to find out about the products you mentioned! 😀

i have the body shop lip and cheek stain which i reckon, is the ‘cheaper version’ of this benetint.
it gives similar effect to benetint, and so far i’m quite happy with my purchase!
i didnt know that benefit’s website does shipping overseas.. i guess i have to try it soon! :o) thx for the info, tine!
