Benefit - Some Kinda gorgeous (deep) Review
I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas! Thank you for all the lovely birthday messages on twitter! :)
Anyway, back to the good stuff!
I have purchased this product twice, I am almost out of it and only have a few uses left and thought I would share my opinion. These photos were taken from my Haul in mid October which is why the compact is full.
The 'Some kinda Gorgeous' is marketed as a foundation faker meaning that it's supposed to look like skin and not foundation. I would have to agree as it contains no shimmer, illuminating properties or anything that wouldn't naturally be on the skin. I would say it's similar to a 'cream to powder' formulation without it actually turning to powder, and what I mean by that is that there is no cakeyness or powdery residue and instead you are left with a matte velvet finish.
However, saying that I mainly used this for contouring and bronzing with a small fluffy brush. It's a bit too dark to use all over my face without a tan. I would compare this to the Chanel bronze universal but a more natural version of it.
Overall I love the product, but don't think I will be repurchasing as I'm determined to use up my other bronzers!
Packaging: I don't like it, it looks cheap - who likes white plastic? Not me.
What I use it for: Contouring / Bronzing
Coverage: Light - Medium
Price: £20.50

I like some of Benefit's products - but their skin shades don't suit me - right now I'm using up their concealer stick as an eyeshadow base - it is SO far from my skin colour LOL!
Do you have Coralista by Benefit - I'd love to try that - but I'm worried it might be too sparkly.
It was helpful. Keep on posting!
Finally I have found something that helped me.
Cheers!
