Benefit Swatches

I'm not a blush person, it never looks right on me, no matter the color or how lightly I apply it. I bought Benefit's Big 10 kit awhile back, and it had minis of Posietint and Benetint, and they've been the exceptions to my blush klutz routine. Both are equally flattering to me. They are quite sheer, and natural-looking. Like you are blushing naturally. The only thing, do one cheek at a time, so the unattended side doesn't have time to dry, because they are watery and dry quickly. I don't use them as lip stains, because I prefer glosses, my lips have to feel moist 24/7. The other swatch is for Benefit's High Beam Highlighter. I add High Beam to my sunblock. I put it on my hands. I use it everywhere. It isn't frosty, or even especially shimmery. It is just glowy. I'm looking forward to trying Benefits other bottled tints--especially Moon Beam and Cha Cha Tint. They have a new highlighter, called Sun Beam, but I'm too pale to use most bronzing products. On to the swatches--the first swatch is too light, I'll try to get a better photograph and update the post later. Flash is on, with and overhead light. Again, pardon my bruise.


Tried the swatches on the back of my hand--meh....Oh, pardon the bruise on my hand. I'm a mess.
