Benefit Realness of Concealness Mini Fake Kit

cute little round-up

This is an adorably packaged little group of products! I like the lip plumper/primer, in particular, though the concealer is a little too thick. Or not even thick, but sort of dense. Despite that, it still goes on pretty smoothly under your eyes, at least. Overall this is a very fun little thing to travel with.

Mustela Musti Eau de Soin Spray

good for babies...and for adults

I know this is for tiny children, but to be honest, I use Musti all the time. It's so clean-smelling! Very useful if you are running out the door without having had time to shower. There's something very fresh about this scent, without being sweet at all, that makes it a) unique, and b) great for adults, too!

Benefit Benetint Lip Balm SPF 15

okay balm but great color!

I don't actually think this is the most useful lip balm. Consequently, I layer it with a colorless balm, or a lip treatment, that does make my lips soft (usually the Mavala stick or the Lisa Hoffman daytime lip treatment) and then I put this on for the rest of the day. I carry this around and reapply...it's the best color! It DOES keep my lips somewhat softened, I just don't think it can do the job all on its own. However, it's still one of my faves.

Lisa Hoffman Anti-Aging Serum

who knew this would happen~

I have been a fan of her products for some time. I like the whole spa facial line but I use this serum on a daily basis (whereas I give myself a facial only once every few months.) Anyway, I don't know if it's a sale or it's the economy or what's going on, but I usually order the products and am used to paying a hundred dollars for this serum, but now it's fifty-five! Let me just say that I am thrilled.
