Summer can be the least exciting time to wear base makeup, I admit even I am trying to sneak in a few foundation-less days during the past weeks as the weather suddenly rocketed in Vancouver. It seems like with the passing years we are teetering away from the mild transitional temperatures and plunging into a duality of rain versus sun. But sometimes you’ve just gotta show up and bring your best face with you so Benefit Cosmetics has devised an easy 1-2-3 plan to get you flawless in a snap.
Word on the street has it that the Hello Flawless Oxygen WOW Foundation has been winning some loyal fans with its lightweight texture and brightening coverage. The new launch of the Stay Flawless 15 hr Primer is also causing quite a stir here in Canada with it’s unique stick format and cheeky packaging and together with their Hello Flawless Powder Compact, this trio is ready to help you conquer the day.
The generous people at Benefit Cosmetics has kindly sent some products my way and I shall be trying out their flawless claims in the upcoming weeks. Maybe I’ll even wear this to IMATS Vancouver, I’m sure that’s going to be a very long day indeed.
But since it’s much more fun to do to this together, Benefit is offering a Flawless Base Giveaway package to my readers so you can try it out with me! One lucky reader will get a chance to grab all three products in your choice of shades.

I always use sunscreen and sometimes I wear a sun hat. I like to use a face mist to refresh myself when my face gets all gross from the weather.

I use sunscreen that is sometimes tinted (but not as much as a BB cream) then use a little bit of oil-control powder to not look too shiny throughout the day.

I currently use a makeup setting spray! It does an OK job but a primer (used for special occasions) usually makes my makeup last a whole lot longer.
