A LITTLE BENEFIT SPLURGE




As you guys saw in my last post, I've recently gone a bit make up shopping crazy. One of the purchases I made was from the Benefit website, I didn't now this until recently but they offer international shipping! If you are American (or from some other place that has most make up brands available) you won't understand this struggle, Iceland has such few brands and every time I want something, I have to find it online and pray that it offers shipping to my little island (and if they offer free shipping, I am one happy shopaholic). But yes, as I said - I did some Benefit shopping.

To start off with, I was only going to get 3 things but then I saw that on the website they have this thing called "Nice Package", where you can pick 3 products and you get one free gift and a make up bag for $79. So I picked the Porefessional, the Hoola bronzer and They're Real mascara. Then as my freebie I chose the Creaseless Cream Shadow in My Two Cents (a very pretty copper). When I saw you get free intl. shipping when you spend $125 or more, I decided to pick up the Gimme Brow and Coralista as well. 

Pretty much all of these products are super popular in the beauty world and I am very excited to give them all a good go. The only thing I've tried thus far is the Porefessional and Gimme Brow and so far, so good. The Gimme Brow which I got in the shade Light/Medium, might be a tad bit light for my liking but I think it will be good for a natural brow day. What are your favorite Benefit products? 

//Eins og þið sáuð í síðustu færslu er ég búin að vera að kaupa ansi mikið af snyrtivörum. Ein af síðunum sem ég verslaði af var á síðu snyrtivörurisans Benefit. Fyrir stuttu frétti ég að síðan býður upp á sendingu um allan heim svo ég ákvað að splæsa smá. 

Ég ætlaði fyrst bara að versla mér 3 vörur en það breyttist þegar ég sá að Benefit er að bjóða uppá svokallað "Nice Package" þar sem þú velur 3 vörur, færð eina fría ásamt förðunarbuddu á 79 dollara. Ég valdi mér Porefessional primerinn, Hoola sólarpúðrið og They're Real maskarann. Fría varan sem ég valdi var Creaseless Cream shadow í litnum My Two Cents (fallegur koparlitur). Síðan sá að ég að það er frí sending ef þú eyðir 125 dollurum svo að Coralista kinnaliturinn og Gimme Brow augabrúnagelið bættust við í körfuna.

Þetta eru flest allt mjög vinsælar vörur svo ég er mjög spennt að prufa þær allar almennilega. Eina sem ég er búin að prufa er Porefessional og Gimme Brow og hingað til er ég mjög ánægð. Gimme Brow er í litnum Light/Medium sem er kannski aðeins of ljós fyrir mig en hann verður líklegast góður fyrir náttúrulega daga. Ég mæli með því að þið kíkið á benefitcosmetics.com og nælið ykkur í nokkrar fallegar vörur! Tollurinn var ekki hár svo ég er mjög sátt. Eigið þið einhverjar uppáhalds Benefit vörur?

  1. They´re real maskarinn hefur lengi verið í uppáhaldi, svo hef ég notað mikið watts up highlighterinn, en núna er að koma mjög sterk inn smokin eyes pallettan, maður bara getur ekki klúðrað augnföðruninni með þeirri pallettu.

    1. Þau fáu skipti sem ég hef prufað They're Real maskarann hef ég ekki verið ánægð :(
      ég er reyndar með alveg ótrúlega leiðinleg augnhár, þarf að prufa hann almennilega.. Watts Up highlighterinn er æði! Þarf að splæsa í hann aftur, var svo óheppin að týna honum í fyrra x
