Hiya everyone! As you probably know, I went on holiday a few weeks ago, and I purchased this set from Benefit called 'Frisky Six'. It contains six of their biggest selling products ever, and I believe that it is exclusive to Thomas Cook Airlines. I had never tried any of these products before, so I was really exited to give them a go. This is what I think of them!
'Sugarbomb' Blush
This was quite shimmery when I first applied it, but when I blended it in, I found that it wasn't so intense. The colour is a peachy-orange shade, and would suit more yellow toned than pink toned skin (like myself). When I use it, I just swirl all four shades together, but if you wanted to then you could choose which shades to use. This is quite a natural-looking blush, and I quite like it!
'They're Real' Mascara
This mascara was what I was most looking forward to trying, and I don't think I was disappointed! After one coat, my lashes were long, curly and fluttery! Despite the large, thick brush, my lashes were not at all clumpy. I always apply two coats of mascara, but I don't think you need it with this product! I loved the brush because it really grabs your lashes, and it feels really nice to apply, too. Overall, a huge thumbs up!
'Ooh La Lift' Under Eye Brightener
Before I tried this, I honestly thought I was not going to like this at all. But, it is now my favorite thing in the set! It is kind of like a concealer, except it doesn't really conceal anything. I would describe it as a highlighter for your under eyes! The reason why i love this is because it really lifts your eyes and gives off a lovely pearly shine! I know you may be thinking, Why would I want pearly undereyes? But really, just trust me on this one!
'Sun Beam' Highlighter
I had really high hopes for this product, but honestly, I didn't think it was that great. When I first applied it to the cheeks, it looked really golden and glowy. But when i had to blend it, the colour completely vanished and there was nothing there. I had already had this product tried on me in store, but I was hoping that it would look nicer if i did it myself. Overall, unfortunately I would not recommend this.
'Lolli tint' Cheek and lip stain
Completely unalike the last product, this is extremely pigmented and is a beautiful baby pink shade! Firstly, this product is lovely as a cheek stain, but try not to apply too much! The colour is quite bold, but you can blend it in to achieve the required look. As for the lips, when you first apply this it is a bit tingly and dry but it sets really nice and looks really girly! This is a great 2 in 1 product, and i prefer this to Benefit's boxed, powder blushes! This also comes in other shades, ie Bene Tint, Posie tint and Cha Cha Tint, so if this colour is not for you then they also have many others to try! I highly recommend this!
'Lolli balm' Lip balm
The first thing that I noticed about this product is that there is barely any lip balm inside, which is a shame. Apart from that, I really liked this product because is has the right amount of colour and is still moisturising on the lips. As you may have guessed, these come in the same shades as the tints, meaning they look great paired up with one another! I used this on top of the 'Lolli tint', and my lips looked great! I loved this too!
Thank you for reading, and I hope you all had an amazing Valentines day! See you in my next post, Gracie xx
