Hi guys!
Today I'm going to be reviewing the Benefit Complexionista palette. I have been testing this out for about 2 weeks now and I wanted to give you guys my opinion on this palette. It comes with 6 pans 2 concealers, 2 bronzer's, and 2 highlights. This palette is quite small in size which makes it very handy for travelling in particular. Below I have created a look using this palette. I used the shade no.1 in boi-ing industrial strength concealer I placed this under my eyes and on my chin. I then started contouring using the shade Hoola under by cheek bones. I used a Real Techniques contour brush from the core collection. I then used the shade Hoola light to bronze up the rest of my face. I used the '3' technique I've seen many celebrities use this method. So you start on the temples of your forehead you then go down in a sweeping motion towards under your cheek bones area where you applied your bronzer earlier. Then you continue your brush down along the edge of your jaw line to create a more defined line. You can do this method as harsh or as soft as you would like by using more or less product on your brush. I love these two bronzer's for contouring and sculpting the face.

Finally I used the Watt's Up cream highlighter in this palette. Unfortunately the shade was too dark for my skin and it had very poor pigmentation so I decided to use a different highlighter in the end. In general I don't usually use cream highlighters just because they tend to move around my foundation underneath. I much prefer using powder highlighters as they don't move your base and you have more control in applying them.
Overall I think this is a nice little palette if you are looking for a cheaper way to get your hands on the Hoola bronzer's. However I could only use 3 out of the 6 pans that came in this palette. The highlighters in here just didn't work for me personally and I couldn't use the second shade of the concealer either as the shade is too dark for me however they might work better on medium to dark skin tones.
