Benefit Posietint

Being a self confessed Benefit-aholic I was not surprised to find Posietint all wrapped up as a birthday gift from my sister. Excited at the prospect of a new Benefit addition to my make up box (yes box - a bag is simply not enough!) I unwrapped and opened in seconds. I thought for Benefit the packaging was actually quiet simple. The box is simply a strong pink colour with black and white writing, very tasteful indeed. The instruction leaflet that came inside the box didn't give me much more information than reading the back of the box so was quickly discarded. The Bottle of Posietint itself is a small, clear glass bottle, with a lot of pink and silver foil ...  Read the complete review

I'm a recent convert to Benefit cosmetics having stuck with various mass market brands plus a bit of Clinique every so often when I can afford it. The first Benefit product I ever bought was Benetint which I purchased a couple of years ago. I was really impressed with this so given that my skin tone is pale and pinky, I thought that Posietint would be an even better match for me. Benetint and Posietint are dual-purpose products that can be used either as a lip or cheek stain. Benetint is a red tone and Posietint is pink. The product comes very attractively packaged in a printed box. Inside is a small glass bottle, similar to a bottle of nail varnish. ...  Read the complete review

I usually use powder blushes. But a wee while ago decided I wanted to go for more creamy, dewy look. So in the search for the perfect blush that will give me a nice pop of colour, make me look fresh and last, I decided to buy this I picked this up from my local boots, and was expensive at £22.50, (gaining boots points did console me a little)..it looked like a much more wearable colour than the original benetint. So off I went home, eager to try it on. Comes in a bottle, with a nail polish style brush. First reaction, very lovely pink candy colour. Gives me a nice pink glowy flush. Though quite watery. I've had this for a few months now ...  Read the complete review

Being a fan of Benefit cosmetics I wanted to give this product a try but as it retails at £22.50, which I thought was very expensive for a product as I passed the Benefit make up counter that I regularly browse in, but I then borrowed one of my friends and I was straight back at the counter a few days later making the purchase as this was a great product that works really well with my skin tones. Posie Tint is a little like the high beam and moon beam, but it is a bright pink shade so the product works really well for you cheeks giving them a rosy glow making you look healthy without looking too flushed. The colour is great and is easy to ...  Read the complete review

I've previously tried the darker version of the Benefit cheek stain Benetint. I didn't really like that one, as it was quite dark, you had to work really fast to blend it in, and it would form funny darker patches on my dry skin. The last thing I want from a check colour is to end up looking like some patchy mess. So I gave up on that one. Then, a few years later, I saw that Benefit had just come out with posietint, this was a lighter pink version of the benetint, also a check stain. I saw this on their website a few months ago and thought I'd try it out next time I'm at Boots, because you never know, this could well be an improved version and I've been ...  Read the complete review
