Benetint by Benefit Review

In makeup artist school, one of the most touted products is the Benefit benetint. In theory, it sounds like a good idea, a sheer stain that stays put and makes you look natural as a blush.

But I have found that the true red wash looks clownish on yellow skin. If you have light pale skin with pink undertones, this will look natural and clean, but on Asian skin, it looks very unnatural.

Some great alternatives of this product are Tarte gel stains, or LORAC liquid stains. They have the same concept but the color is not a bright true red, there are purple or brown undertones that look much more natural and beautiful on asians. You can buy these at Sephora stores or on their website.
