    Pretty frustrating to use. Doesn't stain your lips where you want them to have color. WILL stain the inside of your mouth. So after you use this it kind of looks like you just ate a cherry popsicle...

    Pros: Gives a lovely English-rose blush on the cheeks. You'll have the bottle a very long time before it runs out. Stained my lips nicely (I swipe it on and before it can settle into the lines I...

    I remember liking this when I tried it a few years ago, but I think I had some blending issues. If I want a transparent color wash, I use Tarte blush. If I need something creamier (my usual...

    Benetint is my staple makeup product for looking fresh for the day. I don't wear much makeup and I always go for a natural look. Sometimes Benetint is the only thing I will use and it always perks...

    I like this product a lot. I wish it were less expensive, but a bottle does last forever (and ever). A little goes a long way -- I apply using two or three light-handed stripes across my cheekbones...

    Unfortunately, I really, really hated this product. And it looks like I'm not alone. The reason I hate it is simply because I just cannot find a use for it. For lips: First of all, applying...

    Benetint is a nice color, but the wear of this product and the fact that it can be duped will prevent a repurchase here. On me, the pigment was nice, but there were blending issues. On cheeks, it...

    I really don't see why this has a cult following. I did not like it at all. Maybe it's because I have a very strange skin tone(cafe au lait and a woman of color) or maybe I'm just not applying it...

    Was expecting amazing things from this product but although it was ok it didn't deliver the fireworks I expected. On my cheeks this was barely visible even after applying several layers. Not sure...

    I got this in a mini set at Sephora not long ago. It is a rosy red and it comes in a container similar to a nail polish bottle. It makes a gorgeous blush. You can wear a little for a light flush of...

    This is a beautiful and natural color that makes your skin glow. The color can be layered to be darker, but I think it looks best when it's natural. A lot of people complain that it stains their...

    I actually like this. I got the $15 three pack mini of benefit products at Sephora (It included benetint, posietint, and, high beam) and this is my favorite of the three. It provides a nice,...

    This stain barely changes the color of my lips... I don't know if my natural lip pigmentation is too close to this color in the first place. The color that I get when I build it up doesn't last...

    On my cheeks, Benetint makes me look like I have rosacea, and just isn't pretty. (Maybe I just haven't applied it right, but still, it just doesn't look right on me.) That being said, I absolutely...
