I've always been the biggest fan of benefit cosmetics and their products, i've owned a few things from them but still wanting, ahem.. lusting over other products that they've to offer. This being one of them, i absolutely love their box blushers/bronzers and powders whenever i'm in boots or cavendish house in my town, i'll always have a play about - i've wanted coralista and dandelion for the longest time, i look and add them to my ever growing make up list stored in my brain, notebooks and phone - oops.
Hervana, is one of these products for me - you'll know what i'm talking about as we're all the same, and we've all done this. When you want something, but don't buy it or get it - just me? probably. But why, do we do this to our self ha i think it must have something to do with this price factor, as it's not on the grand scheme of things mega mega expensive that you're thinking - oooo i can't do it - but at the same time it's not cheap, not exactly. But i did add this little guy on my christmas list, below and behold my lovely, boyfriend - carl. Picked it up for me, bless him when i think of him going into there and looking for it, it makes me wanna shred a tear as this for guys is a nightmare, stop. rambling. Amy.
Since i recieved this, i've played about and worn this as much as i can. I've used this as an all over face powder for a dash of color, as an highlight and obviously as a blush - it works for all three as it's very subtle - which brings me on to if you're darker skin toned or well, not as pale as me then i'd feel you'd better suit something like coralista as this is mega subtle but if you don't mind the hassle of building and adding more then go for it.. it's a lovely pick. It's an interesting product and obviously different from their other blushers as it's a swirl of colors which are a berry, cream, pink and peach shades, they all blend together gorgeously to leave a natural flush of color to the cheeks making this little guy the perfect everyday blush with a lovely matte finish it's not chalky and definatley build-able if you'd prefer this to show up more than it does when first applied.
As with all Benefit's boxed powders - Hervana comes with a brush and a mirror and a flip lid that is magnetic, it's very sturdy but obviously prone to getting messed up in your make up bag as this is paper packaging. I personally don't think it's all that bad, it's cute and very chic and girlie. It also has a scent to this particular product and it smells delish, which draws me into using it even more! I'm very very keen on trying some other box powders they have - do you have any recommendations?
What the experts have to say - benefit cosmetics: “Swirl on this orchid-blossom blush for a heavenly flush of enlightenment! These four shades—lucky shell, divine peach, heavenly rose and berry delight—blend together perfectly to lift your look to cloud 9.”
Have you used this?
Talk soon! xoxo
