Add some sun with Benefit's Sun Beam
Benefit launches Sunbeam
With a tagline of 'It's liquid sunshine in a bottle' it's no wonder I find myself drawn to the soon-to-be-launched product by Benefit. It's called Sunbeam and to me it looks like bottled liquid sun except even more golden and shimmery.
Tags: Rimmel Lasting Finish 25 Hour Foundation
Designed for girls-on-the-go, Rimmel Lasting Finish 25 Hour Foundation combines colour that can't fail with an ultra-comfortable, long-lasting wear. Skin feels energised and hydrated all day with no sign of make-up fatigue. It's stress-proof, fade-proof and transfer-proof for up to a wow-worthy 25 hours.
You want to look good day-long, and it helps when your foundation stays on your face. But busy ladies mean busy days so chances are your foundation won't last the pace, fading and rubbing off long before the end of the day.
And then there's this new foundation from Rimmel. It stays in place, and unlike other long-wear foundations, it doesn't leave skin dry, tight and chalky. Actually skin feels wonderfully hydrated all day.
And at £6.99, we reckon it puts other premium foundations to shame - a brilliant buy.
