Concealer Chronicles:
Benefit's Lemon Aid

“If life deals you lemons, make lemonade; if it deals you tomatoes, make Bloody Marys”

It is not a concealer but it is a soft yellow correcting cream that hides discoloration.
I apply it on the inner corner eye area and on the lid.
It helps mask my eye issues and works well as a primer product.
Lemon-Aid holds onto eye shadows like super glue.
The texture is slightly dry and far from moisturizing.
That is my only beef with the product.
It retails for $18 and is available at Sephora.

40 Days And 40 Nights Of Beauty Cult Classics
Day 26, Benetint by Ceil aka Tussah

Benefit’s bene tint is a cheek and lip tint that gives you a perfectly natural rose colored glow. Sheer, but tinted with a shade somewhere between rose and blood red, it is easily applied with the nailpolish-like brush that comes with it. For me it never applies as splotches or streaks like some lip and cheek stains. Just a few dots on the cheeks will blend perfectly with your natural blush color. Used alone on the cheeks and lips it can give you an innocent but sexy look.



I tend to use bene tint along with my other blushes. I am fair skinned and have red in all of the wrong places. I also have very pale lips naturally. So….often instead of just using the bene tint alone….I will use it as my “first-layer” and then apply my other blush on top. I also use it as my lip stain and then apply my gloss or lipstick on top. Then as the day wears on I still have a nice but natural color showing if any of my makeup wears off.

For me this product definitely has justification for cult status….How do you use it and feel about it?

Benetint is priced at $28 and is available at Sephora.

Miss Popularity by Benefit

This is a white shimmer highlighter with a wand applicator. This makes application less messy and more precise then using pigments.

It also helps with overuse. I am guilty of going overboard with shimmer products. I like a lot of sparkle for my buck! The first application is just a whisper of the product. Coverage is subtle and buildable.

It retails for $24 and is available at your local Sephora.
