You're Bluffing by Benefit Cosmetics

Benefit You're Bluffing Redness Concealing Wand

I'm not exactly Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer ... but ...

I can get a little red.  In fact, many women suffer from a bit of redness in their complexion.  Some have extremely rosy cheeks and others have that little bit of redness around their nose.  Even with a good application of concealer or foundation, the redness seems to breakthrough. 

The makeup artist's solution to this problem is a colour corrector - MAC, Makeup Forever, and other top brands all have colour corrector concealers and products, but I'm currently loving You're Bluffing by Benefit.  It's in a convenient twist up tube and portable for touch-ups.  It's a creamy buttermilk colour that blends easily into the skin.

It doesn't necessarily cover your redness, but it does neutralize it, downplaying the red and allowing your foundation or concealer to do its job.

I like the fact that this is creamy and soft.  It's smoother than the consistency of a regular stick concealer so it doesn't drag or pull over the skin.  Dot this on over your problem red areas and use your ring finger to blend.  Follow it up with your foundation/concealer and use some powder to set.  Benefit has a matching powder if you're looking for one.  It's called Bluff Dust and it also counteracts the redness!

You can purchase You're Bluffing  (and other Benefit products) at Shoppers Drug Mart, Sephora or The Bay!

It's like you read my mind, maybe it's why you are my bff. I was also in the market for a concealer. Thanks for the suggestion. Luckily I will be out shopping today.

I'll need to book a makeup session with because I need a new fall look. My bronzed beach look won't cut it when our hot weather goes away.
