I have dry skin, so powder blushes don’t work well on me. I’ve only tried 1 cream blush ( NARS Orgasm), which I like and does last longer. It’s expensive though! That’s why I’m loving my Benefit Posietint mini – the blush lasts me alllllllllll day. Yes, it’s faded a bit by the end, but I can still see it. Benefit Benetint Review Benefit Posietint is the more vibrant and pinker of the two blush tints. It’s awesome if you want a flush of pink that looks young and fresh. On the brush, the color looks mighty scary because it’s so in-your-face. When you apply it and blend, it looks quite sheer and soft. I like this because I don’t like super-pigmented blushes that make you look like a clown. I always love the introduction of a pop of bright colour in your makeup to bring it from winter to spring. It gives that youthful glow to the face that we used have. After the winter months, your skin can be so dull and dry; it's just crying out for a change.

The price on the big bottle is just a tad too much! And the minis contained in this value set last a long time, so I’m glad I didn’t get the big bottle. Benefit Posietint ReviewI also love a pop of bright turquoise at the outer corner for a fun, tropical look! Most of the MAC shadows I love best were limited edition, unfortunately (Parrot, Gulf Stream, Cool Heat) but there are a lot of great shades still out there, try Urban Decay’s Flipside! Finally, I have to give a mention to a couple of my HG shadows: MAC Femme-fi (a limited edition, but was just re-released with the Sugarsweet collection, so you can find it now) is the best, soft gold I have found for my complexion! It is shimmery and lovely and looks amazing highlighting the inner corner or the browbone! Second, NARS Abyssinia single is a beautiful, light creamy pearl. It is perfect for an all-over base shade or, again, as a highlight on the browbone. It is also permanent (yay)!

Summerproof makeup — stays on longer than powder blushes, less likely to budge/smear Have you tried Benefit’s Posietint? What did you think? Anyway, I’ve had a blast blogging for you guys. Thanks so much for listening to me rant and praise products. I loved reading your comments! Before I go, I’d like to give a special shout-out to a blogger: Ruthe Huang of Smile for the Little Things. She has one of the best attitudes I’ve ever encountered and is very enthusiastic about life. If you have time, give her a looksee – I’m sure she’ll appreciate it! 🙂 We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when

First, Posietint comes in a container with an opaque coloring, and the bottle color is not the color of the product! To me, the bottle is a little peachy or coral, while the stain itself is definitely a blue-based pink. If you’re looking for a warmer color I would suggest looking elsewhere. Two coats (applying a thin coat, allowing it to dry, and then applying the next) provided a more vibrant shade of pink, and three coats left my lips with a definite rosy flush comparable to a light coat of Benetint. It felt no more drying than bare lips, but I prefer it with a touch of gloss! One great thing about Posietint is that you can build up the intensity of the stain, either on lips or on cheeks. Just keep layering and blending it onto cheeks (or lips!) to increase the color until you get to the level you desire. I’d say I like it more on cheeks than lips, but on lips it helps add more “natural” pink to my otherwise kind of muted-mauve-dead lips. Very bright and much too sparkly/golden for my taste. Squeezing the tube felt like using super-saturated watercolor paints — the tiniest drop was enough to cover a lot of surface area. If you try this one, proceed slowly, building color as you go. Otherwise you’ll look too flushed.

The timing of when to blend is crucial. If you blend right away after applying it, it doesn’t tint the cheeks enough. But if you wait too long, then it’s really hard to blend because the product would have left a stain on your cheeks. In one of the swatches, I left it on for too long while I grabbed my camera and adjusted the zoom. I usually apply it, count to two, and then blend. Can be used on lips and cheeks. Boy, are we glad that Elf Cosmetics has come to Ireland. The budget brand is really giving more expensive products a run for their money The bright, girlish, pink gel blended in smoothly with no obvious glitter at first; as it dried, it went very golden. I liked it, but when I saw my husband, he said, “Did you just put on blush?” Anathema.Benefit Posie Tint is one of those multi-use products that will just lift your skin and brighten up your look - and you know how I feel about multi-use products. answered already. Comments alerting us to typos or small errors in the post are appreciated (!) but I tried Posietint on my cheeks as well, and it gave a lovely, sheer hint of color. It would look gorgeous yet understated on pale-skinned ladies, and would probably work well on fair to medium complexions layered under or over a bronzer!
