   This is my everyday red lipstick because the color is not too strong and looks so natural. The first thing I love about Benefit lipsticks is that they feel so soft on my lips.

   Upon application you'll immediately feel it's moisturizing effects. It glides effortlessly and smoothly. The color is even. It's rich creamy texture melts with the skin.

   It's also quite longlasting. It stayed put even after eating and drinking. I never experienced any flaking or drying on my lips even after prolongued use. Plus it's black tube casing looks chic and sleek so you can whip it out in style when you need to retouch.

   "On the Sly" Gabbi's shade is the perfect color for that everyday casual look. It doesn't scream whorish red. It blends and enhances your natural liptone. If you're the type of girl who's shy or afraid of wearing bold red tones then this is the right one for you. It's deep muted color will flatter any skin tone.

   All you have to do is smile that pretty smile then you're all set! So loooving it! Mwah!

Posietint

This is my HG when it comes to cheektint.I have always been a big fan of Benetint but when I tried this thing I never looked back anymore. At first glance I thought the bright pink color would be off on my skin, but when I tried it the color blended well with my skin tone. It looks so natural, like a flushed look under the sun. Even my fiancé was duped when he asked me why I'm blushing. Of course I never revealed the source of my glow. The good thing about this product is it's longwearing. It stays put even when you sweat or have oily skin like mine. Just a little application goes a long long way. But you have to quickly blend it with your fingers so that the color won't come of too strong. You can adjust the shade by adding another layer depending on what look you want to achieve. Sometimes I also put this on my lips, it's pink color looks so fresh and young. Posietint is such a great discovery. Nowadays, when people ask me why I have that rosy glow. I just smile and tell them that maybe because I am in love. ;)
