Taking a short trip to town this morning intending to purchase some mac cosmetic products, I stumbled across this beauty! New this week, Benefits' brightening liquid foundation, 'Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow.' Like Soap and Glory, I adore the brands quirky and individual marketing but haven't ever discovered much truth behind the claims they make about there products. However... it seems I may have to eat my words.
The consultant gave me the general chit-chat, promising luminous skin with a flawless glow.. and.. actually, that is exactly what it did. Feeling extremely light on my face with a great medium coverage, I was extremely impressed by what I saw. I am the medium shade; 'cheers to me' (champagne) and it's actually a gorgeous colour which would look great when my complexion is fake tanned or natural. The product comes in nine shades which is perfectly versatile, suited to everyone!At a price tag of £24.50, I definitely had to come home and have a little think about it. It's still looking flawless on my face, and with the added SPF25 it seems even more tempting! The benefit consultant also recommend the 'hello flawless!' powder to dust over the base. I already own this product, but in a shade slightly too light for my skin tone, so she suggested getting a shade which works a bit more like a bronzer.. and it looked great, but not a necessity!
I will definitely be purchasing this online in the next few hours.. and maybe I will have more faith in Benefit cosmetics from now on.. (Get a free 'that gal' brightening face primer with two or more Benefit products at Boots.com)
Hi Katherine :)
ReplyDeleteI really like your blog.
I'm quite tempted to try this.. but it's quite pricey for something that might not like my skin!!

Oh thank you, that's really kind!
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you pop into one of the counters. They're so helpful, but don't let them pressure you into buying products you don't want!
I also have issues with foundation, so I'm hoping I've finally found one I can stick with.. but I'll keep you posted.
Although the consultants refuse to give out samples.. if you love any other Benefit products, their official website are offering a free sample with any purchase!
I'm praying my £24.50 investment is worth it!
