| Trialling Benecos Makeup! |
As a self-professed beauty lover, I'm always on the hunt for new beauty brands to try. One of my favourite things about blogging is being exposed to the beauty industry and finding new brands and products to try. A brand that I've been introduced to recently is Benecos and I love their ethos. They're a brand that offers natural products at affordable prices. I've been testing out some of their products for the past few weeks and I've been thoroughly impressed with the quality of the products.
This natural lipstick has good pigmentation when swatched but I find that two coats work best on the lips to reach the full-colour potential. The lustre finish provides a slight shine to the lips and the formula doesn't bleed so I didn't need to use a lipliner. The formula is also very moisturising due to the hydrating ingredients such as organic jojoba oil, making it ideal to wear at this time of year when our lips aren't in the best condition after the harsh elements of Winter. The lasting power is good for a budget lipstick but most of the product comes off when I eat. However, the creamy formula glides onto the lips making it quick and effortless to re-apply after my meals.
Benecos Natural Lipgloss in 'Pink Blossom'*:
The vibrant pink of the Pink Blossom lip gloss is perfect for Spring. As you can see from the swatch photos below, it has excellent pigmentation for a lip gloss and it provides an outstanding colour payoff to the lips. Similarly to the lipstick, it feels very hydrating on the lips, it doesn't feel sticky like most glosses on the market and it's full of skin-loving ingredients like Beeswax and sunflower seed oil. It has a subtle sweet scent that smells very natural. I've not found a lip gloss that's as good as the NYX Butter Glosses but I'm actually loving this one more than the NYX offerings!
Benecos Natural Fresh Bronzing Duo in 'Ibiza Nights'*:
I saved the best for last; The natural fresh bronzing duo contains a warm-toned bronzer alongside a deep rosy pink blush shade housed in a neat little compact. The bronzer is an ideal shade for adding warmth to the complexion, providing a natural sun kissed healthy appearance to the skin, whilst the blush adds a subtle wash of colour to the complexion.
I found the powders to be very good quality, they have a silky texture that makes them very easy to blend and they looked very natural - Sometimes I find that bronzer can sit on the skin and look quite unnatural but this blended seamlessly into the skin and appeared as a natural warmth. Both the bronzer and the blush contain minute shimmer particles but it's not noticeable on the skin. This was definitely my favourite product of the bunch and one that'll be living in my Spring/Summer makeup bag!
Have you tried any natural products?
Love,
