Benefit Girl Meets Pearl

Bella Sugar Australia and my mate Iris bring the word of something new from Benefit.

Jump!

Benefit Girl Meets Pearl is a raspberry scented Golden Pink Liquid Highlighter much like Benefit High Beam and sporting the same package as Benefit That Girl Primer.

I think they had me at raspberry scented but than I heard golden pink and I get all kinds of hyper. I dunno if I can make it work but damn sure I’ll have fun trying!

Let’s hope we see it on our shores soon.

What do you think?

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    oh my! i don’t know if its the packaging, cute name, raspberry scent, or the fact that it’s “liquid pearl for the face” WHO doesn’t want liquid face pearls?! i sure do.

    but sadly i don’t think i will realistically be able to work with a pink liquid highlighter 🙁 liquid colours on my face are not my friend. sigh.

      LOL jenna tell me ’bout it 😀 No me either plus my skills at application are such a FAIL but I’d prob get it just b/c it smells sweet lol..how diseased!

  • mon

    Yes for the raspberry scent! I hate the smell of raspberry so this is one product Benefit is making me NOT want! lol Love and look forward to your posts. Take care!

    • the Muse

      hi mon! HA it saved your money by being raspberry scented eh? 😀

      Aw thanks xoxo!

  • ace

    OMG. i NEEEED this. desperately. DESPERATEY I TELL YOU!!!!! i have a slight benefit obsession…

  • Leah

    Oh Benefit, just when I’ve got myself straight again after the global financial crisis… and now this!

    Did you hear about Prrrrowl as well? Mascara/Lip Glaze pen in the style of PocketPal I think?

  • Vanessa

    Can’t decide if I want this or not – not too fond of the twist up packaging, but on the other hand, the colours on it are just screaming *too cute* at me to buy it.

  • sillylilacs

    You had me at the picture =p First I was like Benefit? Chinese? Whuuuut?

    Then I read some more…and I want it ^_^

  • Miss Kitty

    it’s not quite so pink, as soon as you put it on skin it goes a bit more golden, so a bit more like moon beam meets that gal rather than high beam 🙂

  • HerpDerp

    I tried on this and Prrrowl in a Benefit store, they’re both fantastic. It doesn’t exactly smell like raspberries though, it smells exactly (EXACTLY) like That Gal. But holy bejeebus, did it make my face look good. And the Prrrowl lip gloss has blue sparkles in it!!! Squee!

    I tired it out today at Macy’s – the SA nearly glopped it all over my hand. I had enough to cover my whole face.

    I’m not impressed – it’s like the That Girl version of Moonbeam. And I’m a Highbeam gal all the way. The gold shimmer is just too much shimmer to pull off.

    I’ll stick with Too Faced Candlelight, it’s just the right amount of gold shimmer – so soft and light. This felt “in your face” to me. But then again it could be that SA.

    • the Muse

      thanks for letting me know Laura. Wasn’t sure about this one either. Bit too much shimmer!

  • Promise

    Ok, Muse, I am needing some serious help! I have tried Smashbox Photofinish and I tried Benefit That Gal face primer, and then I have applied my MAC Satinfinish liquid foundation, and it does not go on smoothly! It just sticks in certain places and does blend in. Am I doing something wrong??

  • Promise

    No, I just didn’t find a review on That Gal Benefit face primer, so I posted on here. Here’s what I’ve been doing, I apply a tinted moisturizer, then I apply benefit that Gal face primer, then my MAC skinfinish foundation, and the foundation goes on really splotchy like its catching on the primer and does blend. Any suggestions?

    • Laura

      Hey sorry to butt in, but I thought I’d tell you what I do (although I don’t use that gal , I use Highbeam)

      I mix everything together on the back of my hand – a dab of Primer, a dab of TM, and a dab of High beam, squish together with my finger and it becomes it’s OWN product. Works great – everyone compliments me on my “dewey” look

  • Promise

    Ok – thanks! You’ve been really helpful. Thanks for the fast response! Yours is the first makeup blog I check every day! lol Just curious, what moisturizer do you use to prep your skin? Thanks!

    • the Muse

      aw thanks promise that’s super flattering appreciate it greatly ;-D I use various moisturizers to be honest, I switch around alot b/c I’m always testing new stuff but my skincare of choice is Lush and my daily moisturizer is Gorgeous.

    • Laura

      Can’t tell who you are asking – but if it’s me. I actually use CG Smoothers TM and love it. It’s just as good as high end. But if I use high end I use Laura Mercier.

  • Charlotte
