I love this foundation. While i was in America i received a small sample of this foundation. The colour that i received was 'im so money' Honey. The colour was too dark for me, however i was able to blend it out. the texture was super creamy and blended really well when i used my beauty blender. The foundation is not a thick consistency as i do not like thick foundation, as i can feel it is on my face, but i also feel that is is clogging my pores.
It even out my skin tone, still looking natural. The finish was dewy which i like as i have dry skin and i love my face to glow. The foundation did last on my skin for most of the day however, it did start to clog to my dry skin. But if i paired it with a great primer im sure the foundation will last a lot longer. The foundation is able to be built up which i like because i am able to decided whether i want a light or full coverage.
The foundation does have a SPF25, which is nice as it protects your skin from burning and can be worn all year round.
The foundation does come in 9 different shades, hopefully there is a shade for everyone, but more shades to choose from would have been better to suit a larger audience.
It contains 30ml and can be purchased in Australia for $55 from myers, Which is pricey, however i have noticed that you can buy directly from the benefit site and can hopefully be shipped to Australia.
I will definitely be purchasing a full size of this product.

Heat Protector - EVO icon welder hot tool shaper (Review)
EVO - icon welder hot tool shaper
I use this product when using heat on my hair (curling, straightening or blow drying). This product is a thermal spray which smooths, holds, and adds shine to your hair. This product is inexpensive and can be bought off the EVO website. I bought mine from a professional Hair Care seller. But most salons sell evo products. The spray has a really nice smell which lingers for a while. I noticed that my hair was smoother when I used this product and it protected from the heat of my styling tools.
Price : AUD $26.95

Beauty Must Haves and Favourites
These are some of my most used and favourite beauty products.Origins drink up intensive overnight mask- I love using this face mask as it is moisturising. Since i have dry skin, i like using this product once a week to ensure that my skin is getting enough hydration.
Priori Large Kabuki Brush- This makeup brush is ideal for applying mineral makeup. It is a dense brush, which give a flawless finish.
Chanel blush horizon de Chanel- This chanel blush was a limited edition however, im sure you would be able to purchase from ebay. This blush is a natural looking shade and is a very pretty colour. i like using this blush for an everyday look to create a pretty natural look. Benefit instant brow pencil- I love having full and thick eyebrows. this pencil is perfect for that look. the colour matches my eyebrows perfectly. The pencil has a smooth texture and blends into the eyebrow hairs.

Benefit high brow glow- Using this product after i have filled in my eyebrows and have set them with the brow gel, i love to apply the high brown glow to lift the eyebrows.
Beauty Blender- i love using the beauty blender when using liquid foundation. the blender gives a flawless finish.
Nars creamy concealer - my nars concealer is in a shade lighter then my foundation so that i am about to highlight under my eyes. the concealer does not crease and has such a creamy texture. it is easy to blend into your foundation.
M.A.C. mineralize skin finish soft and gentle- this is by far the best product to highlight your check bones. it gives a really pretty shimmer to your face. i always use this product and i love to apply a lot to give a nice natural glow to my face.
