Entourage: Dallas Blush Benefit Review

Now that Spring/Summer is almost here you might need to get some bronzer + blush. Wanna try something new?

After receiving freebies from the Benefit counter in Belk I fell in love. They're great because they look so natural. Every time I have Benefit Cosmetics on I get compliments=) It feels good to find a product that smells good and does it job at the same time. I'm slowly adding on to my collection. The other day I stopped by the counter and opted for some blush (I used all the blush in my sample kit). I wanted something a shade darker because Spring/Summer is coming soon and I wanted to define my cheekbones. I'm a little pale in the face so I wanted to add more color. Can't be walking around like a white ghost. HA HA

The woman at the counter, she's so nice, recommended the Dallas Blush. It worked beautifully. She also taught me how to apply it correctly. She swept the brush in a 3 motion starting from the temples, to the cheek, and then to jaw line. It was a great tip. She also said that if I ever needed any help with applying makeup I can see her any time. Which was awesome. The Benefit girls are so sweet.

The blush cost 28.00 but since I applied for the Belk credit card I got 15% off. I usually don't spend that much on blush but since I know the quality of it I was willing to spend more. Especially when you're using products on your face make sure they're quality products.

She also gave me a sample of another blush called thrrrob. It's a very light

pink but she said I could add it on the apples of my cheeks . This blush is great for an every day look while the Dallas is more for the dramatic girl.

Both of these blushes are great. You can also use the Dallas as a bronzer too! It's like a two in one deal. What I love about this brand is that I don't break out at all. The fact that it's so natural I find that it goes great with my bare minerals foundation. Go grab you some samples!

Entourage: Berrylicious Benefit

It is getting colder and I really wanted to try a new color. A couple weeks ago I was approached by a woman who worked at the Benefit counter at Belk. She asked me if I would like to try some samples and sign up for the credit card. Of course I did not get approved for the card but I got some free make up! I have been using some of their products for the past weeks and I really like them. They last long and show beautifully on the skin.

Don't be scared at trying bolder colors on your lips. Fall is all about dramatic looks. Dramatic doesn't always mean pounds of eyeshadow. Sometimes the subtle touches are what makes the look. I really wanted to have a smokey eye and bold lips so I went all out. I'm a little crazy.

I know.

In this look I am wearing Benefit's concealer in either light or medium. Forgot which one. The concealer does a great job in hiding my imperfections and blends easily with my foundation. On my lips I am wearing no competition heathered plum. I love this color! It's so beautiful and it feels so fall. Reminds me of berries! I'm also wearing Benefit's BADgal pencil to line my eyes. What I really like about their pencil liner is that it's easy to apply and very gentle on the skin. It doesn't hurt my skin which will most likely cause damage to my eye.

This is my first time using Benefit Cosmetics and I am glad I have gotten the chance to try some samples. One thing I love about this company is the branding and packaging. The woman at the Benefit counter said that their make up is meant for the every day woman. Which I can totally agree with. She said that their packaging has a vintage look but it doesn't mean that it's only for older woman. I happen to love their packaging that I was reluctant to throw anything away.
