Benefit Bad Gal

If I could recommend any eyeliner it would be this one. It is perfect for creating that rock chick look due its intense colour which is very black and how soft (without being crumbly) it is. I often find that some eyeliners drag my skin and leave my eye feeling sore as I have had to press quite hard but with this being a lot softer than other eyeliners and the colour being so intense application is very easy. I know most people say to apply eyeliner with your eye closed but i actually find it easy to do it with my eye open. What you do is look in mirror and tilt your head back slightly and draw little dashes along your lash line. Next join the dots ...  Read the complete review

I needed a pick me up, so off I trot to House of Fraser, which is always a fave place for me as they have everything I need in cosmetics. I don't have a huge range of Benefit products in my make-up kit and one of my good friends really loves them and got a load of bits for her Birthday so I made a bee-line for the girlie kitch counter. Very helpful staff asked me whether I had heard of Benefit........standard line I gather. I had, so told them so, but that I had never really tried the products before. I wanted a smokey eye look, bit rock chickish, but easy to do, so no black eye shadows to blend carefully, just a quick fix. The lady showed me this massively ...  Read the complete review

I used to be obsessed with Benefit Cosmetics, as all of their products look beautiful, and there were so many of them which were absolutely fantastic. I have recently, however, stopped using as many of them, due to finding a few poor products in the range, and also not being able to afford them as often anymore. The fact that they last for a long time, though, means that I still have several Benefit products which have been in my makeup bag since I could afford to splash out on them, and so I still use them today. Benefit Bad Gal is one of these products, and is one of the two Benefit eyeliners that I use on a regular basis (the other being Gilded, a gold ...  Read the complete review

I think I'm in the minority here but I really am not a fan of this product. It seems to get raves and high ratings everywhere so I was excited to try it out. Although I generally love Benefit Cosmetics as a whole I just didn't get along with "Bad Gal" liner which was a shame since I thought it would live up to my expectations. I'ts big, it's bold and it's black and Benefit claim that "Bad Gal" is a 'make up artists must have' and 'the beauty addicts dream of a black liner'. The soft, powdery consistency of this product promises to make it ideal for both straight lines and or 'soft, sultry, smokey eyes'. The website claims that you 'can get ...  Read the complete review

I'm a big fan of eyeliner and I love the smoky eye look, hence the need for plenty of eyeliner!! This one is great for achieving smoky eyes, it gives a very dark black effect rather than a grey tone like some eye pencils give you. Applying the product is very easy, the colour can blend and smudge but not over smudges so that it ends up all over your face. Meaning that if you want quite definite lines you can achieve this, but a more subtle smudged look is also achievable. As mentioned the product goes on really easily and it doesn't drag on your eye lid. I have found that with some eyeliners you have to apply a fair bit of pressure which pulls ...  Read the complete review
