Adequate
I think this creates a really nice flush. I put it on after foundation (if I'm wearing any) but before powder. Then I layer powder blush over it so it looks "lit from within," if you will, but has enough color for my tastes. I may be a bit of a blush fiend! I've been happy with this, but the price is still off-putting. I may repurchase, but I will try other liquid and cream blushes first. I do love how it looks on my lips, but it completely dries them out so that it's not worth it. Wouldn't recommend putting this anywhere near your lips! — 1 year, 6 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

i used to use this...
and the bottle lasted forever. it gave a nice healthy glow on the cheeks, but didn't do it for me as a lip stain - i prefer a lip balmy/glossy feel for the lips (this just felt too drying, didn't apply evenly, etc.). and i got tired of having red-tinged finger tips! — 5 years, 5 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

Natural color but blend quickly
I caved in and got this after reading all the hype, and I don't regret doing it. There was some trial and error, but once I got the hang of applying it and blending it quickly, the end result is a subtle coloring that doesn't look fake or streaky. It also gives a great stain to my lips. With a little gloss it's perfect. — 3 years, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

I wanted to like this...
...but I just became more and more frustrated with it. It dried too fast to blend well onto my cheeks, the color was too bright with even the lightest application, and it always left my fingertips stained from blending it while it was still wet enough to blend (when I could manage it). I found it impossible to get an even color when I brushed it on my lips. And the brush is a terrible applicator for any purpose (other than nail polish, perhaps). — 2 years, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Eh...
I might have to go against all the other good reviews and just be honest. I really wanted to like this product because of all the hype and word of mouth, but I'm just not feelin' it. My biggest issue would have to be that weird nail polish type of brush. Sometimes instead of little dots of red, the brush will sort of splatter and leave too much on the cheeks. If you don't blend fast enough, the color doesn't look natural. Also, I'm really not sure if this color can work well on all skin tones. I'm Asian with fairly tan skin and yellow undertones (NC40 in MAC) and the red just somehow does not look right. I didn't want to waste the product and tried a dab of it on my lips, which turned out to be an even worse idea- it looked a bit childish, like a little girl who just ate a popsicle or who just stole her mother's lipstick and smeared it on her lips. So sorry, all you hardcore Benetint fans, this product doesn't really work on EVERYONE. — 5 years, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 5 people said helpful

Blood On Your Face?
Left to right, boy, have I heard about this. While my fellow girls on YouTube demonstrate the usage of this, I found this to be a troublesome additive to makeup. First of all, it dries in a quick, which means if you don't blend swiftly and evenly, streaks of crimson seems to be making patterns all over your cheeks. Next, the impractical brush, does anyone even use this thing? 100% of the people that I've seen use this bottle have jammed the top with their finger, shook the bottle, and applied it liberally with their fingers. That brush is way to small anyway to define cheeks, it's more like painting lines on them. Next, I found that this over time can break down into a form of formaldehyde, a type of carcinogen if I'm not mistaken through research. While I don't know much about every other makeup product and their properties, this one was tested and I do know it's some type of a hazard to use and somehow I ran into the information online. Another factor, don't ever use this on top of foundation of any sort, this will melt right into it and make it almost impossible to blend and it can stain surfaces. A glass bottle reminiscent of a nail polish bottle doesn't exactly appeal to me either. But don't think for a second, I'm just a bitter woman about this product, if you do manage to blend it, depending your skin type, it can look natural. I won't be biased about that, however, because this product does deliver a crimson finish, it's not exactly a few people's idea of a perfect flush since some people already have a problem of redness in their facial areas and there isn't much of a color selection other than this one color and the new release, posytint which is the sister shade to this in a pink tinge. I'll oppose this product's values though, because I just don't think it's the best hyped product ever. — 5 years agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 7 of 7 people said helpful

Not too shabby!
I have the Posy Tint. (a different kind of BeneTint) It's a more pinky colored product and I love how it looks on my lips! It gives them a really natural color and the stain really lasts a long time. It's not like a bright barbie pink, so don't get scared when you pull the applicator out. It's a sheer pink and blends in nicely. I have worn it alone and also with a clear gloss on top and have gotten a ton of compliments. I don't know how much it goes for regularly because I purchased a Benefit Sample Box from Ulta (Finding Mr. Bright) but I would definitely buy the full-size bottle once I run out of the sample. — 2 years, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 2 people said helpful

Not as good as Posietint
I can see why lots of people don't like Benetint, but personally I love it. I'm extremely pale, so almost anything with any color whatsoever shows up on my face. This is why I love this product so much. I can build up as much color as I need, which usually isn't much. A lot of blushes are way too pigmented for my skin and aren't natural looking, but this honestly looks like my skin! I love how I can build up as much or as little color as I want. I don't really like this as much as Posietint, which I use on a regular basis, but I have a travel size and I keep it in my purse for touch-ups. It really does last a long time, though. If you're using it for your lips, you can layer things over it and everything, and doesn't really dry them out at all. — 11 months, 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

expensive, and not perfect
This is pricey. Also, it doesn't deliver the best rosy tint. I prefer a tube of $1 Jordana Cosmetics lipstick in Natural. I just smooth a bit on my cheeks and rub it in. It develops a rosy, glowing pink tint. — 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
