New Benefit Dandelion Products!

I'm so excited to share with you all the new Benefit dandelion products.. because I've been using them for a couple weeks now and my obsession is STRONG.

Benefit's dandelion collection began with its boxed blush. Dandelion Boxed Blush is a gorgeous baby pink powder blush. They've expanded the range to a cream blush and a highlight and I'm here to share with you those products.

First up is the dandelion dew. Now, I'm always weary of cream products because of its short wear time because of its dewy nature. This product is quite unique though as it is a dewy looking product, but it dries down! It's super natural looking and i *love* that it comes in a pump form for all you neat freaks! One issue I did find was because of the pump, if I didn't use it on a daily basis, it did clump up like lotion pumps! However, the effortless, gorgeous color lasted through a 7 hour day for me.

Next up, to me is the highlight (literally speaking :P) of the collection. The Shy Beam! It's the newest addition to the highlight family and it is AMAZING. It is a pink matte highlighter. At first, I was confused as how to wear it because when you blend the product out, it is so incredibly subtle that it was hard to see that it was doing anything. However, I found this product most effective when I placed it near my eye area to highlight under my eyes and my brow bone. It left such a clean, crisp look and really gave that natural finish. It's having the best of both worlds - a great highlight, without having too much highlight!

Both products blended out 

Both products are a great addition to the dandelion family. With summer coming up, it's a great time to whip these babies out for that soft, subtle natural look! If you are only in the market to buy one product, I would definitely say the shy beam is the star of the show!!!

ftc. pr samples, but thoughts are my own :)

Benefit Box Sets!

If you are a fan of sephora on facebook - they had a Fan Friday of the benefit box sets! Even before they came out (in july sometime), they had a deal where you get a pack of THREE of their sets in a cute lunchbox for $50!!!! (So cheap!) Considering the fact that each box set is $28, this was an incredible deal. I snatched it as FAST as I can, posted it soo speedy fast and then breathed a bit.

I had these pictures taken a while ago and just totally forgot to post them up. I absolutely adore these sets and am such a huge fan of their new lip glosses. I will surely make a new post on the four glosses I have :)

 Here are the three sets you get - sugarlicious (sugarbomb), feelin' dandy (dandelion), and tropicoral (coralista) 

There are so cute because it comes with its own little mirror and some pages of tips and tricks! 

MY FAVORITE part of these sets (besides the makeup Lol) is the packaging. The whole inside can come out so you can use each product as you please. You don't always have to bring around the annoying box. (even though its so cute lol) Sometimes traveling with a box is such a hassle, so having the option to mix and match, move the products around is such a bonus! 

Without further ado - here are the pretty little things :) 

 Here's the coralista set: chachatint, high beam, coralista blush, coralista lip gloss. GOSH i really love the gloss formulaa!!! 

 Here are the swatches of each product :) 

 Sugarlicious set: benetint, high beam, sugarbomb blush, sugarbomb lipgloss (no swatches because I may give this as a gift)

Feelin' Dandy set: Posietint, highbeam, dandelion blush, dandelion lipgloss 

Swatches of the set! :) 

Hope you enjoyed! I love these box sets -- and am pleasantly surprised with how amazing the new lipglosses are! :)
