in terms of anti-aging?What benefit could getting a facial once a month do to my skin?
Clay mask facials will help in alot of ways. It draws toxins out of the pores making them healthier and can also make them look smaller. This drawing out also helps with acne. If you go to a salon, you could be paying about $70 or more for a facial. You can buy a clay facial to do at home- I buy one from www.MyHomeFacial.com. I use it every other day (it's all natural, so you can) and I get about 90 facials from one jar!What benefit could getting a facial once a month do to my skin?
smooth out wrinkles, make pores smaller and skin smooth

Is benefit makeup as good as its supposed to be?
im hitting the sales this week and i need new makeup, and ive heard that benefit does good makeup, but i dont want to spend all my money on it without knowing for sure... so is it??
If u know any specific thinngs they sell thats really good could u please tell?Is benefit makeup as good as its supposed to be?
Well like every makeup line they have some products that stand out more than others. Some things worth buying are:
High Beam, it's really amazing. I use it together with benetint. Really makes your cheeks glow.

High Brow, I don't know how but it really makes your brow arch higher haha. You put it right under your brow and blend it upwards and it literally makes your brow seem higher.
http://www.benefitcosmetics.com/gp/produ鈥?/a>
Lemon Aid, is supposed to be used to hide redness but everyone uses it as a primer for eyeshadow. If your mainly getting Benefit makeup get this but if your buying other makeup I'd suggest getting Urban Decay Primer Potion or a MAC paintpot to use as a base for eyeshadow because it's much cheaper.

Bad gal lash mascara, works very well I recommend this mascara.

I suggest taking a look at the products when you go and try them on. The employees there will apply makeup on you and help you with what your looking for. They're very helpful.Is benefit makeup as good as its supposed to be?
Oh my GOD I love Benefit! It's my favorite :)
What you'd get kind of depends on your skintone, but here are my recommendations that work on all skintones:
1. Badgal Lash in Plum ~ This is a really great mascara! Also, the deep burgundy is a fun pop of color that isn't crazy; it's kind of like a more fun brown once you've applied it.
2. Blush in 10 ~ This stuff is awesome! It's a duo bronzer highlighter that is gorgeous! Plus, you're getting two products for one... :)
3. Creaseless Cream Shadow/Liner in Gossip ~ This is a gorgeous purple shade that looks great on everyone, and it really does stay put throughout the day!
Those are the three things that they have that I think are unique to Benefit. Things like the California Kissin' gloss and the Boi'ing concealer are things that you can find everywhere for much better prices. I mean, come on, you don't need to waste money on a clear gloss that you can get anywhere!
The one thing I don't recommend from Benefit is the Get Bent Lash in Black. Ugh, the applicator is so annoying and it is really clumping. Don't bother with that one!

Hope I've helped, and good luck! :)
There's only a few items I really like from benefit.
Here's my list...
1. Lemonade (it's basically an eyeshadow base. Also makes your skin tone an even color}
2. Not on my pillow (it's an AWESOME makeup remover)
3. Get bent mascara
I personally use benefit.
It does not make you break out and its eye makeup stays on for a long time.
If you are looking for something else try clinique or estee lauder they are both cheap and high, high, high quality(:
ONYX the black pencil from BENEFIT is really great and one of the bests.
The best eyeshadow is by MAC.
Best mascara is SMOKEY LASH by MAKE-UP FOREVER.
try it and see in sephora

What do you think of Benefit's Benetint?
I was thinking about getting it but I have a few questions. For one, is it easy to apply and does it look good on olive skin? (I was planning on putting it on my cheeks, not my lips.) And can it cause breakouts or ruin your skin? Because I know that many blushes can ruin your skin if you don't put something like powder or foundation underneath, and I don't want to deal with the hassle of foundation/powder. Personal experience and additional tips would be appreciated!What do you think of Benefit's Benetint?
I find it kind of blotchy and hard to spread on cheeks. I dont think it will make you break out but it wont look natural. I would suggest a bare minerals all over color like Glee. Its good for your skin and will look natural, if thats the look you're going for.What do you think of Benefit's Benetint?
I just bought a bunch of things from Benefit and was also tempted to buy Benetint too. I liked it, but wonder if I will use it that often, I found a couple sample sizes on Ebay I have been watching, I might try a small one first to test it out be fore going and spending so much for it.
I have Benetint, and I find that I don't use it that much. I heard such great things about it, so I decided to try it. It looks a little funny on my cheeks because I'm really pale, and it's pretty rosey. I do like it on my lips, and last week I tried it on my eyes...which actually worked pretty well. If you're looking for a ';natural'; looking blush, check out O-Glow from Smashbox. It goes on as a clear gel, and works with your body's natural heat to provide you with the perfect flush look for your skin...it comes in a lipgloss too! (I'm addicted). You can find it at sephora.com....as for the Benetint, it's okay, but it's not my personal favorite from Benefit...and I LOVE their line.
hope this was helpful!
I do not understand the hype about this product. It's a horrible, cherry red color that flatters no one and its consistency is so thin that it's impossible to apply evenly or blend.
Some people love it, though. Maybe it will look better on your skin tone. Just use a little at first and build from there.

Do you know any natural/organic makeup companies on the market that benefit the skin?
Specifically I'm looking for a concealer that gives good coverage but is also good for the skin. I know that there is a company called the Balm that has Vitamins and minerals in it. Is that company any go? ALso, I'm looking for a foundation that is not liquidy or caky and can be smoothly applied on the skin.Do you know any natural/organic makeup companies on the market that benefit the skin?
Try bare minerals. Natural and fantastic. I bet more people will say the same and add details.Do you know any natural/organic makeup companies on the market that benefit the skin?
For skincare, I recommend L'Occitane. However, when looking for products, don't expect 100% natural products. By that I mean that most companies will HAVE to put in preservatives, even though the other ingredients are organic and natural. Don't be put off- it wont cause any harm!
Bare Esscentuals (mineral makeup) is all natural and does improve the skin with continued use. Also, Arbonne is some incredible skin care. I haven't used their makeup, but what I've tried of the skin care is incredible!
Arbonne products are all natural and non-allergenic. I don't sell it, but I love to buy the products. https://secure.myarbonne.com/arbonne/net鈥?/a>
yves rocher available by mail or in boutiques g
burt's bees is pretty good. it's hard to find their complete makeup line though. you could go to a health food store.
Go to http://www.bareescentuals.com/ maybe you can find your answer there.

Has anyone used the makeup foundation called some kind-a- gorgeous by benefit cosmetics?
Has anyone used the makeup foundation called some kind-a- gorgeous by benefit cosmetics? You can get it at Sephora. Does it work good? It only comes in 1 shade so i'm not so sure how good it would be. It's rated as a really good product though. Any advice would help! Also if anyone has any advice on some good foundation please let me know, i need one that makes your skin look perfect!Has anyone used the makeup foundation called some kind-a- gorgeous by benefit cosmetics?
I love this foundation when I am having a good skin day. It is really lightweight, has silicone on it so it glides on smoothly. It is only a light coverage, so if you are trying to cover a lot of redness, this may not be the foundation for you. If you want more coverage, the Benefit Playsticks are amazing, I use those when I am having a bad skin day. http://www.benefitcosmetics.com/gp/node/鈥?/a>
