Benefit High Flyin' Glosses - A Review

This was a treat for myself before Christmas which I have shamefully just opened (a spending ban will certainly make you take stock of what you've got).  The box set contains mini versions of the Benefit Lip Gloss Collection, which were brought out to be perfect partners for their collection of Powders.  I'm a sucker for packaging so of course these won me over right away.

Whilst the colours are lovely, the staying power of these glosses isn't great.  You certainly couldn't drink and eat and expect them to still be in place.  There isn't much pigmentation in the first 3.  I call theses 'sheers' and they have a light glittery finish.

The final 3 below have a stronger impact colour wise, but even on the lip they don't leave that block colour look.  They would be perfect for summer and I expect I'll get more use out of them in the coming months.  My particular favourite being the Coralista.

If you are looking for a lip gloss with a nice stain then look elsewhere, but if you want something light and love that sticky lip gloss feel, then these are perfect.  Plus extra points simply for the cute tubes.

Note: I'm realising quite quickly what bad lighting I have in my house and promise to take better pictures and dig out my proper camera, in time for my next posts.

Take care all x
