Benefit Boi-ing Concealer Flawless Review

Hi Beauties,

Under eye circles are my beauty blemish.  I have purply circles that need an industrial strength concealer to cover them up.  At my last trip to Ulta, I picked up Boi-ing Concealer by Benefit Cosmetics because it said it was just that: Industrial Strength.  While the limited selection of shades (01-light, 02-medium) scared me, the Ulta sales girl said it worked great... she was right.

Boi-ing 01-light is perfect for my under eye circles as well as my blemishes and red spots.  I prefer to use a concealer brush because I find that when I use my fingers, I have to add more product then I do with the brush.  I put it on top of my foundation and it blends into my skin very well so it is not noticeable.  Erase Paste by Benefit also claims to cover eye circles but it is more of a pink undertone which really cannot work anywhere but your eyes, so I decided to try boi-ing which doubles as an eye circle eraser and a full face concealer. It is now my every day concealer and I am very happy with my purchase.  However, it is not in a tube so if you prefer squeezable liquids for concealers, Boi-ing may not have the application/consistency that you prefer.

MAC Lipstick: The Flawless Shade

Hi Beauties,

I know for a lot of you, the MAC lipstick counter can be overwhelming.  I went there today spur of the moment with absolutely no color in mind, the unfortunate makeup artist had to swatch me so many times she must have been glad when I left.  The key to a successful MAC run is knowing what you want.  This color in particular is my absolute favorite MAC color.  It is my go-to everyday whereable lip shade and I love it for every occasion.

If you are starting your MAC collection, or are just looking for a back to school shade, MAC Lipstick in HUE is an ideal choice. This color is advertised as a "soft pale pink (glaze)" and it is true to its description.  Hue is a soft pinky neutral that is nude enough for everyday but still has enough color to make your face pop.  It is a sheen finish so the addition of gloss is totally up to you.  The best part is no lip liner is needed!
