Benefit Cha Cha Tint - Review & Swatches

Hello Lovely ladies. its been so long i have not blogged about anything, been very busy lately but now i am back and i will keep blogging from now on (i think so)lol.One more thing i have changed my blogs name from Cosmetique1.blogspot.com to hinamohammads.blogspot.com

so lets talk about my come back post :) today i am reviewing Benefit's most raved about product Cha Cha Tint i got this deluxe mini with my Benefit Sexy little Stowaways set. have a look :)

 



Benefit Cha Cha Tint



Product Description:

This mango-tinted stain beautifully blushes lips & cheeks with a tropical coral hue. Smooch-proof & smudge-proof, our sheer stain has a natural finish that will leave you looking deliciously vibrant for hours

My thought

I have never been a coral lover so when i get to try something coral i don't expect it to work for me sometimes it does sometimes not, in this Cha Cha Tint case i was actually hoping for it to work for me but i was little disappointed because i think tints are not for me no matter how pretty they are they will never work for me.i always find them tricky

 

This is a mango colored tint, comes in a plastic bottle and contains 2.5ml of the product.This is mini version of the original so the bottle is very tiny.The original one comes in a 14.5ml bottle.the applicator is similar to nail polish applicator .It has a creamy semi thick consistency, not runny at all.the application is bit tricky i need to blend it quickly after applying can't wait, even for a second or else i get a splotchy application because it leaves a stain where i applied it so be careful and do one cheek at a time.If i apply it with my finger,i end up getting more stain on my finger than the face and its difficult to remove.i would recommend not applying the stain directly on our cheeks to avoid the stain patches, use a makeup sponge or fingers and do remember to rinse fingers immediately after applying.

After this much struggle with the application i have to admit i get a pretty coral flush on my cheeks and gives a fresh look.the staying power is something i won't complain about because it stays put for 7 to 8 hours on me without a budge.the size is travel friendly but this can not be a on-the-go product because you will always need to be careful with the application, no hurry and no with out mirror touch ups.

 

And now about the lips, it emphasise the dryness and cracks on the lips and application is uneven, my upper lip always gets less stained no matter how much i apply i don't know why may be its because of my lip tone.it stays put maximum 3 to 4 hours on me which is not bad.

 

so this is my experience with this tint after which i won't be considering buying the full sized bottle as i first thought, because its not worth spending so much money ( i think so).this little bottle is enough for me.

 

 

i will rate it 3/5

 

 

Pros

• Pretty coral color
• Looks good after application
• Long lasting

 

 

Cons

• Tricky application
• Not a on-the-go product
• Emphasise dryness on lips
• Pricey

 

Price         14.5ml  $30,   2.5ml   $7 (price varies as different online sellers sell the deluxe mini on different prices)

 

You can get it online from Benefit Cosmetics website or from facebook stores Wishlist or beautyunleashed

 

 

Do share your experience if you have tried it :) TC
