Look Fresh with Benefit’s Play Tint

 

How is it 2022 and we are still on Alert Level 3 and how crazy it is that almost everyone I know is suffering from COVID?  Particularly OMICRON!  Ahh, I wish everybody good health and instant recovery (if they got Covid) and I hope wherever you are reading this post to be safe and healthy!  

Since I can only cheat “Freshness” — things are getting busier each day even if I’m only staying home.  So a sudden Zoom get-together with friends or a client meeting, I depend on quick fixes!  One discoverey for year 2022?

Benefit’s Play Tint Cheek and Lip Stain.  Oh I just love this shade so much!  

This shade is described as Pink-Lemonade Hue.  Truth be told, Pinks does not look good on my skintone that is why I am surprised Play Tint works.  It must be the “yellow” hue it added that works for individuals who have very warm undertone.  How good it is that they were able to create a bright pink shade that works for very yellow skin?  I am just as surprised as you!

Talk about the texutre, it isn’t the usual lip and cheek stain that ahem “stains” your cheeks orfingers.  It is a nice gel-water consistency making it easy to blend and 99% of the time, whether I do it with my mind off somewhere, the effect is still great!  No Sience involved here.  You just dot, apply and blend!  

Which Make Up Sample Is Making You Say "I'm Buying Full Size!" ?

We all agree, we love samples!  But just how many samples have you tried in which you ended up buying full size?  At the top of my head, I would say 1%?  Truth be told, I find samples to be extremely useful!  BUT, just how many times do I get impressed with just a tiny sample?  Almost never!  But one day, as I was rummaging through my "samples basket" (yes girls!  I have one!), I chanced upon Etude House's Fresh Cherry Tint, I had like 3 small sachets of those from an event and I knew it won't give me any impact because ---

1.  I can only use this sachet once because I'm too lazy to tape it or staple it to reuse the remaining content.

2. Etude House never comes to mind when we talk about "Tints", I have a feeling it'll look too fake and bright on me.

Then THIS HAPPENED.....

Okay, you don't have to love the result on photo but my husband does!  So this definitely deserves ONE BLOG POST!

Note from author: This product is meant to be used on lips but I used on both cheeks and lips!
