Hi, I have used a few of their products, including the dandelion powder, dr. feelgood, benetint.
IMHO, they were O.K., would not repurchase. I liked dandelion powder the best of the three. |

| I tried their foundation, didn't like it. My face became very oily and their powder, a no too. But the brow zing, I like that. |

Okay, against most of your advice, I went ahead and bought the Realness of Concealness kit. (Must be the cute packaging.) 
I really like the lemon aid. It works really well with my skin tone, so maybe that's the key. The Bo-ing is no better than my Laura Mercier, which I'm not fond of. The ooh la lift is nothing special so far. Didn't notice anything with the lip plumper except that I'll have to wear lipstick if I use it because it's an awful color. High beam is okay, but I don't usually use pink glittery things on my face. I think I'm glad I bought it, though, because I like the lemon aid.
- One thing worries me,though. Hubbie and I decided to go to the park this afternoon. I was already wearing the Realness of Concealness, and I didn't wash it off. It was really hot because we live in a giant sauna, and I started sweating. My face really started stinging. I don't know if it was my own sweat stinging me or if it was the Benefit. Anyway, no lasting damage, so I'll try it again. |

Hi do you use Benefit products yourself ?
I am looking for someone who has used their Benefit erase paste. Just need to know if it is worth a try. |

I have not tried this specific product, but do use other products by them and love it. You can try going to Sephora and get a sample of it. |

| I love the packaging but have never really loved anything I've gotten from Benefit. Seemed like its just kind of average stuff, not bad but not great. |

Benefit Cosmetics are very interesting in their looking and usage. It has a lot of cheek colors, including liquid cheek color- I love it so much, which is very lovely.
Besides, Benefit has some kits very worth to buy- a lot of good products are included. |

| Exactly! the retro packaging is sweet and they make their products seem fun and approachable but it's not really quality make up. I believe better products can be found in other lines for the same amount of money. In my late teen years Im my late teens I got suckered in plenty by their salesgirls and my own vanity I guess. I have lemon aid in the stick, the get even powder (which I am actually using after 4 years and kind of like...oddly enough...possibly my one exception), speed brows, Georgia pallette, lipstick, bad gal mascara. The georgia, the powder and the benetint were there best products I would say. Skip the skin care products however, I wouldn't put my trust in their formulations. Not a bad line, but not the best. Not worth it's own hype. |

| I've tried the foundation faker and it did not live up to its name for me. You can tell the colour difference between my real skin tone and the foundation. |

hey there, I must say that I do agree with most of the reviews on here regarding benefit. The packaging is lovely - really funky and cute, however the actual products are quite average really.
The benetint is nice, but I think that you can get cheaper versions that are just as good. I wasn't too keen on the mascara as it was a bit clumpy for me.I have also used their blushers (it was the packaging that did it!) but I guess if im really honest they were average too... they did look great in my make-up bag tho! |

I love Dandelion for blush also. It's the subtle sheer pink that I've been looking for. Just hate the box; makes it hard for packing.
I am also really liking the pinkish nude colored Lady's Choice lipstick. Already bought a spare! |

Benefit Dandelion powder is one of my favorite blushes. It was recommended by a makeup artist some years ago. Its pretty pink color looks very natural on me! I've been using it for more than 2 years and still loving it! |

If you are looking for a concealer for eye area I strongly suggest Too faced absolutely flawless herbal eye base. It's easy to blend.
Benefit products have nice package but the result is so so, but lemon-aid is a good-try. |
