From a point of historical reference BeneFit : Benetint does deserve the nod. This practical bottle can be used not only as a lip stain but also as a cheek stain. Since Bonne Bell and Max Factor exited the stain business when i was still in my 20's, BeneFit should get props for bringing the product to life again. Judging by how many variants i had in my cosmetic drawers its a definite market segment.
Flavored with the taste of Roses its a treat to swab on with the little brush, but forget about that on the cheekbones ! The product is thin there is no other way around dissing the granddaddy. Developments make all the other contenders just a little hipper, easier to use and more practical. Sorry , cause i love many other products in the BeneFit sisters line !
Here's a suprise. Rummaging through an old beach bag today i came across a Revlon product called Just Bitten. It has to be at least 3 years old and for sure launched to early to jump on the Vampire craze.
This stain is in roller ball vehicle. Its a mess. a completely unpractical delivery system for the product. However the drips that collect on the bottle and then your fingers do look like you just cut yourself opening it. That would make it very popular with the Soukie set! The one thing i can say about it.......a really great Font. If there was ever a font that said Vampire this is it!
Next post we look at Avon's' youth line Mark, with its clever " Tattoo" marker, and then Outlast by Cover girl which was really the catalyst for this entire series. Until then dear reader go grab a lipstick and make yourself gorgeous !
