Review: Benefit's Hervana


It's actually so appropriate that this blush is packaged with clouds and an angel's halo; it truly is a gods send blush! Hervana is absolutely brilliant and excuse me while I try to put into words just how amazing it is!


Benefit's Hervana blush. I'm not sure if it was marketed this way or I just heard it somewhere on YouTube or read on someone's blog but what I heard was "The blush for pale people..." Not even the BEST or it's GREAT for ... just THE best. And oh my ... whoever said that had probably never spoken truer words. It's a fantastic, natural pink-peach. It effortlessly blends into the skin and looks beautiful wether it's sheered out or not. Hervana has been my go to blush since the day I bought it! It makes me look fresh and well rested which is something I don't normally hear about a blush! A good dupe for this blush is MACs Well Dressed although I think that one has a little more pink to it! 



The swatch above to the left is a layered swatch of all the colors swirled and then the one on the right is the blush blended out with the brush it comes with! This really is a fabulous blush for pale people! It's light so I don't know how it would appear on darker skin tones but this blush is a dream so I would definitely recommend it!

Retail Therapy: Sephora & M.A.C.

In celebration before the day of IMATS my friend Julia and I decided to break in our wallets and shop around the city. What we should have probably been doing is breaking in our shoes. I still can't feel my feet. We went to Sephora and M.A.C. to get things we thought would be essential and something we couldn't get at IMATS. Here's what I walked away with.

Sephora
  • Benefit Watt's Up
  • Benefit Hervana
  • Nars Eyeshadow Duo (Mediterranee)
  • Sephora Collection Eyelash Curler (Aquamarine)
