Review: Benetint

Benetint

A rose tinted lip and cheek stain

Directions: Brush three strokes on the apples of your cheeks and blend quickly with fingertip. Apply on the lips and blend - for a deeper pop of colour, repeat.It's the sexiest flush you can get from a bottle!

First thoughts: I was really excited to try this product and had put off buying it for quite a while due to the price; then I seen a smaller sample size coming free with Instyle magazine last month, so I didn't hesitate to pick it up purely for the free gift. The first thing I noticed about the product is the smell, it can be quite strong but then again i'm not too keen on the smell of roses; so this is just a personal preference - it doesn't smell bad at all! (: 

Overall: The colour is beautiful and can be built up which is always a plus depending on whether you want a more subtle or dramatic flush of colour. Also the fact that it is a multi-purpose product is great as you can get more use out of it!

The application of the product must be carried out rather quickly though as I made the mistake of putting three strokes on both my cheeks both blending which means I ended up with three patches that were slightly darker as the product had already started to sink into my skin so was a bit of trial and error but once I got the hang of how to apply the product I fell in love with it!

Using it on the lips is a little different as it is different to the other types of lip stains I have in my collection. They all tend to dry quite quickly whereas this one I feel like I can't put my lips together until the product is completely dry or it will just disappear which is rather odd! The colour once dried though it really nice and again can be repeated to create a much darker shade of pink (: An advantage of this is that it does not dry out your lips which I have yet to find another stain that does not do this to my lips! So 5/5 on that aspect!

The only bad points that I can pick out of this product are the fact that the smell is quite strong but then a lot of people do like the smell of roses and i'm just picky! So that's not going to affect everyone as it's a personal preference and that it takes a little bit longer to dry than some other products as if i'm in a rush I don't really have time to sit around waiting for it to dry before ensuring my make up is fine and can head out the door! 

I would completely recommend this product to anyone who hasn't tried it and I am 100% purchasing this in full size once the one I have runs out!
