Hi everyone, today i'm going to do a very long review of the Benefit b.right set which consists of six mini items from their skincare range. I got this from Debenhams around Christmas for £10 but its normally £12.
The products come packaged in a very pretty box and when you open it you can see they come with a clear makeup bag to carry them around which is very convenient for travelling. They're very pretty and look lovely sitting together on my dresser.
The bottles and jars are really tiny so if you use them twice a day they would probably only last a couple of weeks but I use them every other day and I'm onto week two and have plenty left. They're a nice option if you want to try them out before buying the full sized versions.
Foamingly Clean facial wash review
First up is the cleanser which is something I would really consider getting the full size of. It comes packaged in a cute little vintage style tube which has a screw off lid and it smells very fresh and clean like the rest of the range.
The tube is made of hard plastic which is a little hard to squeeze and it contains 8.9 grams which is fine because you only need to use a pea-sized amount.
The product is a white, thick cream that contains moisturising ingredients like glycerin which benefit claims to cleanse and remove impurities.
To use it you massage it into damp skin for about 60 seconds, It foams up into a very gentle lather which deep cleanses and leaves my skin feeling very soft and smooth but not drying which I really like. I prefer to use it in the morning or in the evening after I've taken off my makeup because I feel it cleanses better with makeup off. I think this cleanser would suit any skin type, its a little expensive but only a small amount is needed per use.
RRP £17.50
Moisture prep toning lotion
Second is the toning lotion which is something I've never seen before, it's not watery like most toners, it's thicker and more pleasant to use.
It comes in a tiny glass bottle and is a milky colour with the same smell as the cleanser. Its supposed to maximise the benefits of moisturiser. To apply I pour a tiny amount onto my fingertips and pat into my face(benefit says to apply with cotton wool but I find this wasteful as it absorbs most of the product) it feels slightly sticky immediately afterwards but then dries quickly. The results are; my skin feeling toned and soft with pores reduced and tightened without feeling uncomfortable. It contains alcohol which is a shame as it may not be so good for the skin especially if it's sensitive, it might also be too drying for people with dry skin but for those with normal to oily skin it works really well and I find my moisturiser absorbs much better and it actually adds moisture to the skin rather than drying it like a standard toner.
RRP £23.50
Total moisture facial cream review
Next is the thicker moisturiser in the range which comes in a pretty glass tub, I would prefer a pump though as dipping fingers in can spread germs.
Benefit says it provides short and long term moisture by helping to develop the skin's reserves of water.
The cream is thick and white and I prefer to use it at night as I find it too heavy for day time although people with dry skin could use it through the day but it doesn't contain SPF which is a shame.
Using clean hands I massage a small amount into my skin and it absorbs quickly leaving my skin soft in the morning and it got rid of some dry skin around my nose within a couple of days which I'm happy with.
I probably wont buy the full size because I'm happy with my current night cream but I would highly recommend to anyone with dry skin to use it as a day cream and because you only need a small amount it's good value.
RRP £27.50
It's potent! Eye cream review
I don't normally use eye creams because I don't have wrinkles or bad dark circles but its never too early to start preparing.
It's potent! comes in a glass jar and it is a light yellow colour. It doesn't have a strong smell which is good because I wouldn't want perfumes near my eyes. It's more watery than the moisturiser but takes a little longer to sink in and has a cooling effect which is nice.
I haven't seen any benefits after using it for a couple of weeks but maybe someone with concerns around their eyes would.
I wouldn't repurchase this only because it didn't do anything to my skin, although I did enjoy using it and would consider it for the future.
RRP £24.50
Triple performing facial emulsion review
This is the lighter moisturiser of the set and comes in the same glass bottle as the toner, it contains SPF 15 and is oil free so it works very well as a day time moisturiser especially for those with oily skin.
To use I take small amounts and dot around my face and massage with clean hands, it absorbs very quickly and doesn't feel heavy or sticky, it provides only a small amount of moisture so is probably not very effective on dry skin.
I really love this moisturiser, I find it hard to find a day cream which works well on my skin but this works wonders and I really want to get the full size.
RRP £20.50
Refined finish facial polish review
Lastly is the scrub of the set which comes in the same tube as the cleanser and contains the same amount of product.
It comes out of the tube as a thick cream with tiny little beads to exfoliate, it smells really nice and fresh and you only need to use a pea-sized amount.
To use simply massage it into the skin for about 30 seconds, because the beads are so small it's a very gentle exfoliant. Then just pat dry with a clean towel.
Afterwards my skin feels very smooth and noticeably brighter and softer. my pores appear smaller and the results are quite long lasting. I really enjoy using this and I highly recommend it to anyone, even those with sensitive skin because the tiny beads are so gentle.
RRP £18.50
