Last Saturday I accompanied my sister to shop for a pair of white high heels at MidValley. We went into MetroJaya but came out empty handed.
As I passed by the cosmetic counters, I was surprised to see a Benefit counter there. Before this I thought there was only one Benefit counter in KLCC. I didn’t stop to look at anything, but something caught my eyes and kept me wondering all the way home.
I thought I saw a pencil case. You know, those rectangular shaped pencil cases made from metal that we used when we were in primary school? But this pencil case has a very beautiful lady printed on its cover.
Of course that ‘pencil case’ is NOT a pencil case. I did some searching and realized that it is a body balm called Body So Fine.
This flirtatiously scented balm is pure body seduction. Slip some on to arms, legs, decollete, anywhere you want luminescent luxury. The silky velvet finish is slightly naughty and totally irresistible…it’s all you will want to wear! The fragrance of white blossoms is like an aphrodisiac!
I think one of the factors that make Benefit cosmetics so fun to own and to use is the way they name and describe their products. Even before you start to use it, reading the name and the description of the products already made you feel good, cheerful, naughty, happy, sexy, alluring… every thing a woman should be.
I myself am using Dr. Feelgood and Benetint. I love them!
Dr. Feelgood
If there is a body balm, certainly there is balm for the face too. I use it after moisturizer and, sometimes, before foundation. It provides some extent of oil control and gives a smooth, velvety finish to my face. I especially love its smell - so pleasant. The smell reminds me of something way deep down in my memory, but I just couldn’t figure what that ‘something’ is.
This invisible refiner, blended with Vitamin C helps to smooth away the appearance of fine lines while leaving skin feeling and looking more silky, flawless and matte to the touch. It’s a colorless, weightless miracle worker.
Benetint
I think this is a fun product to use! By just drawing three stripes of the rose-colored tint across the apple of my cheeks, and blending the color with my fingertips, I immediately get a very natural, healthy, rosy glow on my face. Super easy! And I like its rose-syrup kind of fragrance too. Although it can also be used on the lips, I prefer to use it on the face only.
The sexiest flush you can get from a bottle. Innocent yet provocative, our rose tinted cheek stain is see through color that endures it all… even in the thralls of passion.
There are so many other Benefit products that I would like to try, but their prices are too high, I can’t afford to buy more than two items per year, hehe. But I can still have a wish list, right?
The next Benefit product that I would like to have is the 10 Palette, which contains a duo powder blusher, a light eye shadow, a medium eye shadow and two shades of silky finish lipsticks. Good for traveling purpose. However, this is a limited edition item. It may no longer available by the time I save up enough money for it.
This powder duo bronzes & highlights in one sexy sweep to give you sleek, sculpted cheekbones. We’ve chosen two seductive shades for lips & complimentary shades for your eyes. We like to call it “sexy to the max.” Limited edition.
Well, I don’t think I have to worry too much. I believe Benefit will come out with something similar or even better in the future. But I hope some day they will consider lowering the prices of their cosmetics in order to Benefit more women, so that all of us can look and feel good.

The unique cubic design of this palette was inspired by the 18th century Chinese boxes. Inside this multi-faceted contraption there are two eye shadows on one side and a lipstick and gloss on the other.
