New Job And Benefit Products Review

Hello everyone..
                            Wow... Where do i begin.
So as you can tell by the title i have a new job :D i don't want to get into specific details but i think we all know when its time to move on .... My new job is with Benefit Cosmetics as a makeup artist in Leeds. i absolutely love it.. i am going to do a separate post about stages of the recruitment as a few people have asked.. so that will be up in a week or so! 
So lets get cracking... 

 Big Beautiful eyes Palette 

This palette is ideal for travelling, As you can see its got 3 colours which are a pink colour (shimmery) 
a beige colour (shimmery) and then a dark matte colour dark brown/black it also comes with the industrial concealer "boing" the pink tone is the base shadow, the medium tone is the contour shadow and then the dark tone is a liner shadow, this is perfect for popping in your bag if your out on a night out and need to touch up also if your going away for the weekend this is ideal. really nice shades too. This retails at £25.50

Brow zings

So as many of you know... eyebrows are a popular trend all over the world.. and working for benefit they love a good brow. 
i was introduced to this a while back now and i love it, it comes in 3 different shades light, medium and deep or dark, so it works for all types of hair colours as you have the different shades. 
Brow zings comes with a wax (left) and a powder (right) you use the wax to sculpt and shape the brow then use the powder to fill in and bits that take a little more effort to cover up. this is a brilliant product especially if your a fan of your brows looking on point.  
This retails at £24.50

They're Real Mascara 

WOW!!! this product!!! Honestly is one of the best products on the market. its amazing!!!! 
they're real is a massive massive top seller at benefit and it actually sells more in boots than nappies how crazy is that. If you're a fan of a good mascara then this is the one to get... as you can see from the tip it has different angles on the tip ob the brush to really get to your lashes and make them look longer and fuller. Every customer i am with and show them this are instantly hooked for the pure fact its a amazing product. its waterproof so this baby isnt going to budge when you are out partying with your friends and its raining. This comes in 3 colours Black, Brown and Blue
This retails at £19.50

They're Real Push Up Liner

Another amazing product... 
as you can see the liner has great eyecatching packaging and whats so special about this liner is the fact that it has a accuflex tip which is like using a pen so when doing liner if you move this isnt going to go all over your face this is going to follow you where ever you take the liner. its waterproof and its also a gel formula which isnt drying in the slightest. Also comes in 5 shades which are Black, Blue, Purple, Green and brown, This is another amazing product that customers love. 
perrrrrrfect fot that cat eye effect 
This retails at £18.50

Bene Tint 

Bene tint is a multi use product so you can use it for lips, cheeks, you can also mix it with gloss, its a really subtle colour of red for the cheeks and gives a really nice finish to make the blush look really natural, its a water consitency so its quite runny... DONT SPIL THIS!!!
as you can see from the picture its a really subtle red colour thats after 3 swipes so you can go as more or as less as you want. This product also smells so nice its made from rose petals. 
This retails at £24.50

HighBeam

Highbeam is another product thats really good, so this is a cheek highlighter, its really lovely i know a lot of my friends use this to highlights parts of the face they want to highlight, i persoanlly love this under a brow bone, on the cupids bow and really subtle down the bridge of the nose to make features stand out more, You can also mix this product with foundation to make t look more luminous. 
This retails at £19.50

Rockateur Blush 

Rockateur is quite popular for the more mature ladies. As this product is very bronzey on the face, its a really nice colour as you can see from the picture, its really a lovely golden and peachy colour you can use this again with other products, This looks lovely over highbeam. This is only a sample size the full size is a lot bigger. 
Full size retails at £23.50 

Rockateur Gloss 

So this is the matching gloss to the blush and as you can see its so lovely, The gloss is really moisturising, and it lasts so you dont find yourself topping up every 15/20mins. 
this is more of a darker tone. 
 This retails at £14.50

How to look the best at everything

So in this pack you get 
  • PoreFessional
  • Hello Flawless foundation
  • 2 Shades of Boing Concealer 
  • and a mini Hello Flawless Power
Porfessional is a whole new blogpost on its own as its my favourite product from benefit. 
its a foundation primer which makes all the fine lines and pores on your face pretty much invisible, 
Hello flawless foundation is really good medium coverage but defo buildable to a full coverage theres various different shades in the foundation the concealer and the powder, then we have the 2 shades of the industrial strength concealer really good for those under eye cirlces and any blemishes you may have this will cover them well, and what i love about this product is that it doesent budge... it stays all day. and the powder is just really good matte powder to make sure you stay matte all day as i suffer with oily skin i normally dust this over on the morning and then it lasts all day i start to get oily sort of 8 pm maybe then i would just normally dust over again to matte my self down if i was still to go anywhere. 

Thank you for reading and if you get any of these products let me know what you think!! 

Stay safe

BOOTEA 14 day TeaTox

Daytime and bedtime tea

So.. I thrive on "True opinions" and giving products a chance, i have read a few other blogs and watched a couple of videos on youtube regarding how to diet or change your eating habits whilst drinking this, and did a lot of research into how i should approach this product and get it to make a difference.... so 2 weeks in and i have seen nothing, nothing has changed i feel the same and i have lost no weight.
I dont know why... but for some reason this just didnt have a effect on me, The blogs and youtube videos i looked at a lot of people said that this really worked for them, thy cut out carbs and so on..... in my honest opinion i didnt 100% cut out all carbs, i cut down but didnt fully cut them out of the 2weeks i was drinking this...
so the morning tea - this tastes like lemons... it smells beautiful, when i smelt it i was excited to taste it, it tastes really nice almost like a detox tea if this makes sense lol i know it is a detox tea but it tastes like one too... i found my bladder filling up more quickly whilst drinking this... i dont know if this is one of the effects but i did fill up a lot quicker.
the evening tea - this evening tea tastes on different to green tea... it tastes exactly the same, I heard on the grape vine that this has some kind of laxitive (can't spell) in it, for me nothing happened. I don't know how true that is lol, I'm gutted this didn't work as I'm a big lover of testing out diet or slimming products 

this retails at around £21.00 i got mine from holland a barrett, i wouldnt waste my money on this again as it did nothing for me, i find drinking 4 cups of green tea a day will do the exact same thing and you can buy green tea from your local supermarket.

and just to let you guys know .... i am not sent products to do reviews on ive had a couple of people ask on facebook who to contact about getting products  sent to them to review, i dont get paid to do this nor do i get products sent to me, i buy these with my own money and these are my own opinions.
