Beauty with Benefit

Beauty Products

Have you ever been to the tiny Benefit flagship store in Mill Valley, California?  It’s so cute, mostly pink, very inviting & attention grabbing (as most of their product line is) at the same time – I dare you to walk by without stopping in.  Then you’ll come out with at least two products in your bag that you can’t wait to try on.  They’re one of the most fun cosmetic lines out there with many excellent  products.  Let’s narrow a few down because Winter is almost upon us and our skin tends to get dull and dry.  We need a pick me up in the complexion department.  Granted, these 3 products do “almost” the same thing with a slight twist so you really don’t need all three – maybe just one or two. Okay all three!

 Whoever said you can’t get your Benefit faves on the go clearly had never met a woman in 2013!  Taken from their blog:

Think back to your last 4-hour flight… you arrived at your destination wearing workout pants, hair in a messy bun, and skin feeling dry & lifeless. Let’s face it, you were more Page Six tragic than celebrity jet-setting status.
