As anyone who's been reading my reviews by now will know, I got the Realness of Concealness set for Christmas this year. As I've written detailed reviews, of all but one of the products contained in it, I'm not going to go into too much detail here, at the risk of being repetitive. The Realness of Concealness, is a set by Benefit that shows off their quirky side in both the name and the packaging. It comes in a quite sturdy cardboard box that is brown with polka dot swirls all over it and the product name on the top. Open up the little flip top and you are greeted by a pink background with brown polka dots on, and a cute little round mirror. On the right are ...  Read the complete review

Despite the fact that I am a great fan of Benefit cosmetics, I'm not unwilling to admit that their products can very hit or miss. Once past the cute packaging and quirky descriptions, the product inside can sometimes be no better than many of the cheaper alternatives available on the Highstreet. So, what's a better way to find out than to purchase one of their adorable, travel friendly, miniture sized 'sample' kits? I bought 'Realness of Concealness' for £22.50 in Debenhams and although this may seem expensive for such small items, once divided by five (the amount of products inside) it works out as a great deal in my opinion. Already an avid user of ...  Read the complete review

The USA cosmetics brand Benefit make a few special edition little kits containing a number of miniature products. For my birthday last year I asked for the Realness of Concealness kit from my friend, and was lucky enough to receive it.

*This review will contain bits and pieces from other review I have posted over the last few weeks so if little snipets look familiar thats probably why!!* This review will come as no surprise to those of you who read my reviews regularly. Over the last few days I have been reviewing all the products from this set so I could think of no better time to write about the set as a whole. This 'Benefit Realness Of Concealness' was the last set from the brand that I bought to try out simply because all of the products in there I had wanted to try out full size. But I thought it was better (not to mention cheaper!) to try out small versions of them all to see if they ...  Read the complete review

I was lucky enough to recieve this from my brother for my birthday. I love Benefit makeup, I am working my way through most of the range! This particular compact is a brown rectangle which when you open up contains a mirror and 5 different Benefit products. You get three tubes which contain highbeam, ooh la la lift and lip plump, then on the side you get two rectangles which contain lemon aid and bo-ing. This compact costs £24 from Benefit. Benefit describe it as a compact that contains their best selling concealers and enhancers for touch ups on the go. Highbeam comes in a little tube which contains 2.5g, it is a pale pink highlighter that you can ...  Read the complete review
