Benefit 'POREfessionally Pretty' Set: Review

Benefit has some of the most interesting products.  I am a firm believer in their mascara and have been since branching out into their blushes, bronzers and now primers.  The first primer I ever tried was Benefit's IT Girl.  Probably when I was about 16 - 17 or so.  Recently, I have been working off of a small sample of Benefit POREfessional Primer and finally decided to take the leap and buy the full sized product.  To my great surprise, when I arrived at Sephora to purchase the full sized product, for ~$2-$3 more, I was able to purchase this kit, which included a sample of Benefit's new Girl meets Pearl as well as their concealer Erase Paste (in Medium no. 2).

Benefit 'Tan About Town': Review

Today's featured product is Benefit's Tan About Town - it was released as a "mini set" exclusively at Sephora over the holidays.  This set which first came out around Christmas time now seems to be all over the check out line at Sephora.  With 3 of their best selling items, this is the perfect little sample pack for a gal on the go!

January Favourites!

I can't believe that January is already over.  It seems to have flown by.  It seems that I have so many favorites this month.  There have been some new discoveries and some older products that I have 'newly rediscovered'.  As part of my effort to save money, I am doing my best to use up as much of the products I already have - instead of just continuing to buy more.  Note: monthly favorites are also long posts for me, as I tend to do a mini review on each product as I go.

Lash Lovelies by Benefit

The first thing I usually notice about a person is their eyes.  I adore it when girls have simple eye make-up and long, defined and voluminous lashes.  You know the ones?  Those eyes that you think, "how did she get those incredible lashes when mine are ....", well my personal lashes are straight and not-so-amazing.  I'm working on it.

I was at Shopper's Drug Mart today and came across these babies. or Lovies.  Benefit Cosmetics has come out with a new line of lashes called "Lash Lovies".  The range includes seven styles of flirty lashes with creative names (Big Spender, Debutante, Little Flirt, Pin-up, Prima Donna, Rockette and Starlet) as well as their single lashes (which are appropriately named Going Solo).  They are priced at $18 CAD a pair (or $15 USD from the Benefit website.)
