Benefit Posietint: Review and Swatches

Posted on the 05 August 2013 by Kinderhandbtips
Benefit's Posietint - it's like their Benetint, but instead of being a red stain, it's a very pretty light pink stain for lips and cheeks.

The packaging is rather cute - a metallic pink small bottle with a white bottle top.  12.5ml of product for £24.50.  Now that sounds expensive for a little bottle,  but this really does last AGES!   A little goes a LING way, and less is definitely more!

Benefit say:  "Poppy-pink tinted lip and cheek stain.  The cheekiest flush you can get from a bottle.  Our petal-pink stain plants a kiss of see-through tint on cheeks & lips.  With hours of smudge-proof, just-picked perfection, you'll be the prettiest bloom in the bunch!"

This is SO perfect for summer!  We all love a good product that doubles up for multi-uses in the summer, right? :-) It's the prettiest cool-toned pink, so light and summery-looking!

On the back of my hand it swatches to a light pink color.   On my lips, as my lips are naturally quite pigmented, it's more of a darker pink.
Likewise, on my cheeks it's more pale pink than on my lips.  But it's still gorgeous,  none the less!

But here's the best part - YOU are in control of the intensity of the product.   One layer for a light look, or build it up for a stronger look.
Long-lasting wear - this easily lasted me the whole day with no touch-ups!  As I have oily skin I set it lightly with powder blusher.
The perfect product for ladies on the go or to pack away on holiday with you!

I give this a rating of 9/10 and would recommend :-).
