Elle + Benefit Push Up Liner

I’m a bit late to the Benefit party aren’t I?

Nethertheless I will proceed with this blog post in high hopes that somebody will enjoy it. 

As I walked into my local corner shop for some much needed chocolate, I came across the new edition of Glamour and with it… the Benefit Push Up Liner!

A lot of bloggers had raved this product so I was really keen to try it. My first thoughts were ‘what the hell’! because this liner looks a bit weird and complicated for me. So the first time I picked it up and pushed up the liner, I immediately placed it back in my beauty drawer… guilty as charged! 

 However, I decided to sit down with it and really give it a go – in the name of beauty research.

I didn't like it at all! I'm sorry, but I just couldn't work it. I love my liquid liner too much and this was a bit too much faff for 6.30 in the morning! It just dragged across my skin, leaving a blotchy black mess in it's wake. It might work well for people who blend their liner but this is not for those who like something a bit sleeker. I really wanted to like this product but you can't like everything!

What are your thoughts on the liner? Have I missed a trick?

Benefit They're Real...Honest

This is one hyped mascara! Type this into Google and everyone is talking/blogging/raving about it. I don't know if you've tried it before but with Elle magazine at the moment you can get your hands on a mini They're Real of your own to try and that's exactly what I did.

Unsure of whether a mascara could live up to such high expectations I had hesitated purchasing, but Benefit have certainly not disappointed.

With a thick, jet black formula combined with unique brush, They're real gives you length, volume and thickness in one go. My favourite part of this mascara is the spikes on the brush point. This section allows you to separate lashes and banish any clumping that could occur for good.

Warning: These lashes will get you more complements, so be prepared.

This is definitely worth it, time and effort has been put into the development of this and Benefit really are reaping in the rewards from one of their best sellers.
