Benefit Lemon Aid

Very necessary

I have been using this everyday for years. Makes your makeup stay on all day. Takes away any discoloration present on eyelids. An absolute must have. One of my favorite products.

Benefit High Brow

Makes eyes pop but ...

This product definitely makes your eyes stand out, but seems like a bit of overkill. Nice consistency, decent staying power, but if not blended well, you will look overdone.

Benefit High Beam

Shimmering and gorgeous!

Perfect highlighter! Use on collarbones, cheekbones, and even nose and chin. Highlights, illuminates, and perfects. Nice color and consistency. Lasts a long time too. Definitely a keeper!

Benefit A Little Bit BADgal Lash Mascara

Cute but clumpy

Nice packaging, as Benefit always has, but definitely does not produce the results it claims. Why is it called Bad Gal? More like bad mascara ... also known as below par. Very clumpy.

Benefit BADgal waterproof mascara

Good but not perfect

This product actually comes with instructions. The pamphlet tells you to start at the base of your lash line and zigzag horizontally withe brush. It does produce results, but not the amazing results I desired. The reviews were glowing, and perhaps exaggerated, as this mascara was good but not superior. Definitely waterproof. No smearing or raccoon eyes, but a second coat is asking for a Tammy Faye Baker look. People will not marvel at your lashes, or ask if they're real. It's mascara, not eyelash extensions. There are much better alternatives out there. This is a good product, but definitely the end all be all mascara. Good for everyday, when done lightly and with flair. Not for special events, or to super impress.

Benefit POREfessional

Absolutely love!

I do not have large or obvious pores, nor do I have bad skin or blemishes, but this is an amazing product! I have very fair skin, and I m not sure if this product comes in variant shades, but what I received certainly delivered ... and perfectly! I got a sample from Sephora, and it was one of the best ones I have received to date! Provides a very smooth finish and a great base for anything you will apply hereafter. Nice texture. Glides on smooth and feels very natural. Very generous and thick, but not too thick. Nice feel to it. Blends easily and quickly. I do not use foundation, as I have good skin, but this product definitely provides an adequate base for makeup application. A+++

Benefit Brow Zings

So dark!

Very dark and hard looking! I am very fair skinned, thus my eyebrows are fair in color, as well as sparse. This loomed like Halloween makeup for me. Way too dark and waxy. Very disappointing.

Benefit Maybe Baby Eau de Toilette

Powdery but disappointing

Has a very nice initial scent, but it fades so fast! Does not last long at all. At first it smells all nice and powdery and floral. Then it's gone. Staying power is highly disappointing. Nice bottle. Benefit always has great descriptions and packaging. I will not purchase this item again.

Benefit Hoola Bronzing Powder

Hoola is amazing!

Hoola Bronzer by is my go to bronzer of choice! I am very fair skinned, and regardless of whether I have a tan or not, it makes you look sun kissed. I tend to focus in my nose, chin, cheeks, lower neck, and my cleavage, and it looks totally believable. Be careful not to use too mush, or it will look like overkill! Otherwise, it looks like you spent the day playing in the sun! Best bronzer ever!
