Just Sampling: Benefit b.right Radiant Skincare Foamingly Clean Facial Wash, Triple Performing Facial Emulsion and Its Potent! Eye Cream

July 7, 2011 Paris B 16 Comments

Benefit Cosmetics fans would have noticed this new display at the Benefit Cosmetics’ counter. You would also have read all the rumblings internationally about the launch of the new Benefit b.right Radiant skincare which is Benefit’s first skincare line. Its been available here for about a month so far.

benefit b.right skincare

Do you want a dimmer switch on radiant skin? I wouldn’t! Let it shine baybeh! 😀

Anyway, I was offered some little samples of 3 products to try which I did over the course of a week or so and I will quickly have my thoughts on them below. Before that however, I must confess to really liking the faux cork look of the caps used in the packaging. It looks so olde worlde and harkens back to a time when cosmetics probably did come in bottles and tubs stoppered with cork.

I will however, have to note that the packaging of some of the products, although very lovely and whimsical, just like the makeup, tends to be a little impractical. The primary impracticality is with the lotions which come in lovely bottles. The problem however is that the lotions are a not liquid like the cleanser so it is quite a pain to get it out of the bottle in a proper amount for use each time. The sample bottles were mini versions of the full sizes so perhaps the small opening might have something to do with it. But I always prefer a squeeze tube or pump dispenser for lotions. It allows you dispense the right amount and there is less wastage. [Update: Apparently full size bottles come with a pump hence this rant maybe for naught]

Now we’ve gotten that out of the way, let me tell you quickly what I think about the Foamingly Clean Facial Wash, Triple Performing Facial Emulsion SPF15 and Its Potent! Eye Cream.

Benefit B.Right Foamingly Clean Facial Wash RM90/127.5g

This is a rather thick cream when squeezed out but lathers up very nicely and feels very lovely on my skin. I like the scent which is fresh but grounded, if that makes sense. Its a nice facial wash to use in the mornings and it leaves my skin feeling clean but not stripped. I like using this one with the Clarisonic Mia the few times I tried. I reckon its worth taking a look at.

Benefit B.Right Triple Performing Facial Emulsion SPF15 PA++ RM120/50.3ml

This is the day moisturizer which comes in a bottle, hence my complaints about packaging above. I had to shake it out – it does not pour out readily, and the amount dispensed each time is quite different. A pump or squeeze tube will ensure more consistent amounts. As it had SPF I only used it in the day and its not too bad. Its not heavy nor oily and there is a light scent. The SPF is insufficient here in the tropics, so I always top up with another sunscreen. My sample lasted me slightly over a week, so I can’t tell the long term benefits but in the short term, it felt quite nice on the skin in the day.

Benefit B.Right Its Potent! Eye Cream RM135/14.2g

The thing about eye creams is that I never quite know what to look out for. The cream is light but creamy and I used the sample day and night. It was not oily which I appreciated, and it did make the skin around my eye area look more moisturized as opposed to not using anything. But with just a week to gauge, I can’t tell its long term benefits either.

If you have used any of the Benefit B.Right skincare line, I would love to hear your thoughts on them. Or perhaps you have sampled products different from what I have – please share your thoughts too. As for me, I can’t quite tell off hand if I like them or not even after a week. The foaming cleanser is nice, that I can say off hand, but I’m a little ambivalent about the other two. I have heard some good things about the Refined Finish scrub so do share if its something you have used/tried 🙂

Paris B

Benefit B.Right Radiant Skincare is available at all Benefit Cosmetics counters

About Just Sampling: Occasionally I receive a product for review that comes in a sample size sachet or pot, or I obtain a sample sachet from the cosmetics counters. I use it at most 2-3 times or a week so I can’t tell you if its really good or if in the long term I’d hate it or love it. So “Just Sampling” is quite self-explanatory in this regard. I will only talk about texture and first impressions of the product and there will be no pros and cons nor details. You get a “sample” of a full review as it were 🙂

    I heart the packaging! But if it’s not user-friendly, that’s just meh. Reminds me of a Clinique DDML bottle I have, hated that I couldn’t control how much product came out.

      The packaging would look so pretty on the dresser thats for sure! I tend to dislike packaging that isn’t functional too. I like my creams properly dispensed

    Totally agree with you about the packaging – absolutely gorgeous but definitely less-than-practical. For some reason I’m not quite into Benefit though, maybe because their makeup range is a little too cutesy for me (once I got over my mad about Benefit phase a couple of years back).

    Haven’t quite heard much about their skincare range – it does seem to be relatively new? Or maybe just not quite as promoted as their cosmetics? Or I’m just some kind of mountain hermit? Whatever the case, brightening isn’t quite one of my main skin concerns so don’t think I will be venturing into this anytime soon!

      The skincare is new – I believe it was launched just a few months ago internationally hence the lack of reviews. Its targeted at the young and possibly new to skincare or Benefit fans. I’m not about to change my own skincare for these which are cute, but a little too basic for my needs.

    I’ll have to finish my current Clinique stash before I start venturing to other brands of skincare!! Yikes! But, having said that, I’ll just chicken out and restock, ahahaha.

    The faux cork caps do look really nice. I think it’s so cute. The packaging looks nice too, but if the facial emulsion isn’t very liquid, I can see the problem in dispensing the right amount each time you use it. Otherwise, they seem quite promising!

      Well apparently the full size emulsion does come with a pump so that’s a good thing. Its a decent basic skincare line I believe. Great for those who don’t have much to worry about with their skin 🙂

    I bought the Triple Performing Facial Emulsion (fyi, the full size has a pump) and the Its Potent! Eye Cream about 2 months back whilst I was placing my order for Cha Cha Tint and Porefessional on the Benefit website and I’ve been using it every now and then when I am bored with my normal routine, and I do have to say the products are quite good. I can’t really say anything about the brightening effects of the products as I don’t use it religiously but for the price, it does a decent job as it does not break me out, does not make my skin oilier than it naturally is and it does moisturize my oily dehydrated skin quite nicely. I will say this line would better for those who are just starting out in skincare (teens to early 20’s) and does not need any specific targeted treatments as it does not have any anti-aging benefits or acne-fighting ingredients. But that’s just my two cents. 🙂

      Thanks for sharing your thoughts! 🙂 I liked the foaming cleanser. It was a refreshing change from the norm and if I can suck up to pay for it, I will … or buy it online 😉 The Triple Performing Emulsion is nice for not being oily too which as you have pointed out might be good for those with younger skins without too much problems. I’m sticking to my regular skincare for now, but that cleanser does tempt me some 😉

    oooo… i almost bought the cleanser but i read somewhr that it’s for dehydrated skin or something so I didnt buy it 🙁 my skin is oily… i’m finally getting my first benefit product!!! my cousin is getting the porefessional for me 🙂 heheheh….. cant wait to try it out!

    oh. benefit has a special promotional kit that contains porefessional n the cleanser for only rm199. it comes with a free travel sized moisturiser or emulsion (cant rmbr which). porefessional retails for rm 120 so u save quite a bit~~

Popped out of my hermitage to visit the amazing Jo Popped out of my hermitage to visit the amazing Jo Malone installation at Mid Valley Megamall 😍 Jo Malone has always made gifting an experience, both for giver and receiver, and this is what their Jobots are here for - to help you find that perfect gift whether for a friend, family, or for yourself each time you manage to dodge the C-bullet 😆
Go check out the Jobots at Mid Valley Megamall Centre Court & experience their signature hand and arm massages, gift boxing, personalised engraving of your perfume bottles & candle jars & play with the vending machine. You could get lucky! 
No prizes for guessing which Jobot installation was my favourite! The one with the dog of course! They also had a key chain with a dog. So. Bloody. Cute!! 
And after so many years finally got a photo with event organizer extraordinaire @cyrus.chin because we didn’t get the white & beige memo and came instead in (unplanned) matching sunny coral instead 😂 
It felt good to have makeup on, dress up and go out for a tiny little bit, and meet people I haven’t seen in literally years! Also to enjoy the scents (hard to smell with a mask on though) and the visual delights. Go check it out. They’re there at the Centre Court until Sunday 3 July.
