Summer Look: Liptint vs. Lipstick or Lipgloss

For the summer, which look would you pick? Benetint from Benefit vs. regular lipstick or lipgloss?

First let me start with the summer look of this year?  A summer look for this year is keeping it natural but colorful without overdoing the color. 

For my taste lipstick was never an option.  Usually the color is too heavy for the summer and it adds too much formality.  Do you usually see many people wearing lipstick to the office in the morning?  -  Probably not.

On the other hand, what about lipgloss?  Lipgloss is a better option than lipstick, but the duration of how long the lipgloss lasts on the lips is fairly short.  Lipgloss is one of those things that you apply right before you enter a party, a bar or when you meet up with your date.  It's the one that makes a shiny impression but disappears soon after.  

So, if you are like me, neither lipstick nor lipgloss is the right solution.  One is too heavy and the other I never remember to keep reapplying.  

However, don't you worry.  I found the perfect solution.  

Benetint by Benefit is seriously unbelievable.  It's the best lip product I have ever used or tested.  A friend introduced the liptint to me recently after I commented on her lip color.  Her lips looked so naturally pink.  I didn't even know she was wearing anything.  

Benetint is a ONCE a day tint.  I put it on in the morning with my makeup and even now, 15 hours later, you can still tell a difference. (But only if you new my natural lip color)  I have very light pink lip color that tends to blend into my face, especially when wearing some makeup.  

Benetint gave me the perfect lips that I have always wanted.  It's the perfect natural pink color for the summer.  You will be surprised how much you will like this after the first application. Not only can you use Benetint on your lips, it can also be a great summer blush or even an evening eye shadow base.  Think of it as a three pack in one deal. 

The color that you see when looking at the bottle is not the same color that you get on your lips.  It's more like a build on.  The more you apply, the brighter it gets. 

For the night, you can wear it with lipgloss or just a thicker layer. 

It’s made from real rose petals. No artificial coloring and no chemicals. 

You can find Benetint at Sephora for $28. It's well worth the money.

Even Christopher Drummond in his blog states how amazing Benetint looks.

Isn't lip gloss esentially just...diluted lipstick that's shinier and better for your lips? I've been trying to find a difference between the 2 lately, and that's really the only notable thing I can think of.
