When I was in London I was lucky enough to be there when Glamour magazine were having the Benefit giveaway. I of course bought all three magazines and got the three different pencils. I am going to be reviewing each one and to start with I chose Eye Bright which primarily brightens your eyes making you look more away.
Lets take a look at the packaging:
Swatched onto my skin it comes out a very pearly white. I think it is comparible to Milk or Cottage Cheese by NYX though they are back in Australia and I can't show you.
I find it can be worn three ways. As an inner corner highlight and on the water line to brighten your eyes and it is also a quick simple brow highlight that you can easiƦy rub in with your finger when you are in a rush. I wore nothing but som mascara and the Eye Bright in the following photo to give you an idea.
Thoughts?
On Sephora.com it retails for US $20 which I find to be a bit overpriced. In the end it really is just an oversized white eye pencil with a pearly finish. If you have the money to spend then why not buy it but if you can grab an NYX jumbo pencil then take that one instead. But I do like the idea of an eye brightening pencil and I think it can definitley make you look fresh and awake.
Here is a FOTD for you as well:
Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation mixed with Dior Skin Nude Foundation
Mac Powder
Nars Casino Bronzer
Mac Dollymix Blush
Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara
Benefit Eye Bright
Rimmel Lipstick in Airy Fairy
You look so fresh and gorgeous! I really like Eyebright, but would never ever pay full price for it. I'm glad to have it as a freebie!
