So the other day I was browsing the benefit counter as there are a few of their products I want to try out, and I ended up buying this kit. It is called 'Finding Mr Bright' and is a kit made up of some of their best highlighting make up. It includes several of the products I had wanted to try, so I figured why not try the sample sizes in this kit first.
left to right: Girl Meets Pearl, Posie Tint, High Beam, Erase Paste.
The Girl Meets Pearl product is described as 'a golden pink liquid pearl for the face', and can be used as either a primer or to put on top of other make up to add an extra glow to the skin. I think it would also make a great highlighter as it has very similar pink tones to the High Beam. It leaves a lovely glow and I am enjoying using it!
I'm not so sure about Posie Tint. It is a good lip stain but not the best on the cheeks, its a little too runny and doesn't apply to the cheeks well. It is a lovely colour on the lips and I will continue to use it as a lip stain, but I don't love it enough to purchase the full size.
I had particularly wanted to try the High Beam highlighter, I've heard alot of great things about this and it certainly lived up to them! It is a perfect highlighter which leaves such a lovely glow. I would definitely consider buying this in the full size.
The Erase Paste is a great concealer, i found it is especially good for concealing under the eyes. The kit comes with the medium shade which if anything is a little dark for my skin, but other than that I have no complaints!
All in all I think purchasing this was a good move. It comes in at £28.50 which still seems rather expensive considering how small the samples are, but when you compare it with the prices of the full size products, it isn't bad at all! It was great to sample the products first so now I can make a better decision on which I enjoyed enough to purchase in the full size.
I will definitely be sampling some of their other makeup kits! Have you tried any out?

I'm with you on Posie Tint... I have four samples which remain unloved because its so runny! Shame though as it is a lovely colour.
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing your swatch of Girl Meets Pearl I'm sticking that on my wish list! Soo pretty!

I love the idea of these kits, Some were on sale in debenhams recently ,I decided to get porefact radiance set so I could try some porefessional and eye cream! I desparately want to try the erase paste but I think I'm a little too pasty for the lightest shade. Lovely review :) xo
ReplyDeletethat set sounds great too :)
