So when I went into Sephora I noticed this palette which had a combination of mini products that Benefit makes for a full face coverage. I was very excited because I was able to try out this company and multiple items without committing myself to spend over $100. Now let me share with you what this palette included and what my favorite items are in the box.
So as you see #1 is the Porefessional. This is a face primer that is suppose to fill in pores, even out skin coloring and pretty much make a fresh, smooth palette out of your face to create your look. You can use this before foundation or alone for a natural look.
Now using this in comparison to others I will say this does live up to its name and on top of that is has such a wonderfully pretty smell. Now if smells bother you, I wouldn't recommend it but if that's not an issue then I recommend this primer. It does have a tint of skin tone when it comes out but applies clear and is so silky smooth when applied. Thumbs up from me.
#2 is they're foundation Hello Flawless in the color "I'm so money" Honey. I did like this and if you haven't seen my comparison of this to my drugstore foundation be sure to check it out here: http://youtu.be/iaBOnK7ig7c
I liked this but I am almost more fond of my Loreal Paris foundation which is a bit less expensive and does the same job. If you are more into higher end products this is one I would suggest this as a middle level foundation.
#3 is concealer which you get two colors to choose from or mix to create the best color for you. It's called Boi-ing to help make you look as if it bounced back your skin. That's what concealers for right? I do have to say this is a pretty good concealer for a non-theatrical concealer. I use the 02 for my brows and under eyes and the 03 for blemishes or other marks on my face.
#4 is powder to set everything in the color "I'm cute as a bunny" Honey. Now I haven't used pressed powders before so I can't compare this to anything. My one thing I did notice is that if I rub against someone's clothes or my baby's headband, it will come right off. I don't know if this is normal or if I'm using too much but it's not something I would think should happen. Now maybe if I used a setting spray it'll help but that's my only down fall with it. I got the medium palette and it's perfect for my skin tone.
Now if you aren't this light but aren't as dark as the dark then that may be a problem for you seeing there's only 3 color options; light, medium and dark. Overall I definitely recommend buying this if your interested in trying a new product from Benefit or any cosmetic line but don't want to spend all the money yet. These palettes are available from a lot of different higher end companies nowadays for the specific reason of not wanting returns for something someone may not end up liking. If your interested in this or any of these individual products check out my website to get all the details on it and purchase it for yourself.
