Review and 1st Impressions: Benefit Cosmetics: High Beam

Hey Everybody!
Today's post is a review and first impression on Benefit Cosmetic's well known highlighter 'High Beam' so if you like all things , make-up , girly and shimmery, have a read. After finally giving in to the temptation and buying this product, here's my thoughts on it. Enjoy! 



The Packaging: 

This was one of the things that drew me to the product in the first place! It comes in a gorgeous pastel pink coloured box which mimics the actual colour of the product.

When you open the box the product itself comes in a glass bottle with a white lid that actually has the brush attached to it, kind of like a nail polish bottle. In my opinion this is a great advantage as it makes the product more practical and is great to have for when you're travelling or don't want to bring too many things in your make-up bag.

The Product Itself:

On my skin tone , when applied it left a very dewy and natural finish. It gave a nice highlight when blended over my foundation , it left a natural glow. The pigment of the product is an extremely pale peace to almost pearly pink. It is a very light consistency which made it easy to blend into the skin and other make-up with a flawless finish that was quick and easy to achieve. 


Is It Worth The Money?: 

Benefit's 'high beam' is about €30-€32 here in Ireland. This price makes it a mid to high end product. However, in my books its worth every cent! The bottle may  look small at only 13.0ml but the product lasts a long time. When applying the product a little goes a long way and the pearly finish lasts all night. It does exactly what it should and more and who minds paying for a product that actually works? No one. 

Well guys and gals , there's my opinion if you want to find out more go try it for yourself and see. Benefit Cosmetics are sold in Boots and Debenhams, Blanchardstown Shopping Centre, Dublin Ireland or can be bought on line ( http://www.benefitcosmetics.com)
