How cutesies are these little samples!? The moisturiser is even in a tiny glass bottle, like the full size! First up, I want to talk about how much I absolutely adore the packaging! One of my favourites, ever.
This is just a short review because they're only small (obviously - they're samples) so I've only used them a couple of times. I got the Refined Finish Facial Polish, the Foamingly Clean Facial Wash, the Triple Performing Facial Lotion and the It's Potent Eye Cream.
The idea of this range it's to give skin a natural radiant glow, which I have to say I adore. I love having glowing skin, I always use a radiance boosting moisturiser but of course, skincare which encourages this is way better.
I wasn't sure what I expected from Benefit (as they are primarily all about makeup) but I'm pleased with the results!
The Facial Polish was my favourite product, it's fine exfoliating particles really do leave the skin looking radiant and clean. The face wash is also lovely, especially in the morning to wake up skin. It left my face feeling really clean and soft.
The moisturiser is also lovely, it absorbs in well (which is really all I look for in a moisturiser) but I have only used this once so I can't really comment on it! I didn't have any problems with it and it's a fluid so not to thick which makes it easy to apply & rub in.
I get quite lazy when it comes to eye creams, but when I do use them, I really do notice a difference. The Benefit eye cream is no different, it made my eye bags look a lot brighter as well as soothe them. They felt so soft the next day, and it is a huge improvement. I am trying to apply this every night, as although it's just a sample pot, you only need a tiny dab on each eye so I think it will last a while.
This is a fairly short review, but overall they're great products & I would love the face polish and the eye cream in full size bottles but they are slightly expensive!
I dyed my hair tonight, I want it a nice ash blonde/brown but at the moment it's really coppery & basically far too red toned even after using purple/silver shampoo. I might add some blonde highlights. Thoughts?

Love the packaging! I'm always dubious about make-up brands that dabble in skin care and vice versa, because they never seem to live up to expectations and the products are normally ridiculously overpriced for their quality. It sounds like Benefit are doing quite well with their skin care though, so I might be tempted into trying it! x
ReplyDeleteReally impressed with this skincare line. It smells REALLY good too x
ReplyDeleteThe packaging is cute!
ReplyDeletei'm a sucker for packaging. sometimes i think i should go back to uni for packaging or industrial design instead of fashion. but i don't want to regret another stint in uni not doing what fashion!! ahh decisions, decisions!! these are beautiful though, i love that you take every last detail into account when you do reviews.
