BeneFit Benetint Blush and Lip Shade — 

Quick View: The most natural looking blush you can get from a bottle that isn't alcoholic.

About Benefit Cosmetics Benetint

This is an old standby for Benefit Cosmetics. Benetint comes on a nail polish-like glass jar and even has a brush at the end like nail polish. This liquid blush imparts a natural flush of a glow onto the cheeks that lasts for hours. This works just as well as a lip stain. It is waterproof and will not budge. I wear it under lipstick or lip gloss so I still have rosy lips when my color wears off. I wear it on my cheeks for a very natural flush that no one would ever comes from a bottle.

The bottle is about as small as a nail polish bottle but lasts and lasts. You need just a touch on the lips or cheeks for all day and night color. It is so sheer that even the fairest of skins will glow without looking made up. This is a great choice for women who don't like makeup but do want a touch of color on cheeks and lips. Its low maintenance and long lasting on the skin and in the bottle.

My Viewpoint

Possibly one of the best cheek and lip stains I have tried, Benetint will give anyone a sheer wash of color that never looks too done or clownish. A bottle will lasts months, if not a year since so little is needed. I have to give this old friend 5 stars and recommend it to all women.

Thanks for the good tip, Patty. Maybe I'll look for it when I'm at Ulta. : )

You should wear it first then add lip balm, gloss, or anything else you want. If you have anything on your lips before using this stain it won't take well. This doesn't dry my lips but neither does it hydrate. I always use a balm or gloss after for shine and moisture.

Really good review, Patty! Do you find this drying out your lips at all? Can it be used over a lip moisturizer?

Hi! I don't use the brush for my cheeks. I turn the bottle over with my finger covering the top and use that to dot on my cheeks then blend. On my lips, I sometimes use the brush or just use my finger to pat the color on. Once on, it's on for a LONG time!

Hi Patty- how do you recommend applying it?
