It's hard to believe, but Benefit's cult favorite Benetint has been around for 30 years. And in all that time, I've never had a chance to use the famed lip and cheek stain, until now, with the latest incarnation, Posietint. While the original is more of a deep rose flush, Posietint is dubbed a softer petal-pink shade. But I honestly didn't think I was going to like this product: the almost shockingly bright, bubble-gum-pink color in the bottle looked a bit scary and the nail polish-applicator brush seemed like it would be unwieldy. I'm happy to report I was wrong on both counts, because Posietint is neither frightening when you put it on (it's actually a pretty, natural-looking rosy flush), nor difficult to use (just a few quick flicks of the brush on your cheek and then blend with your fingers). I guess that's the lesson of the day when it comes to lip/cheek stains: they may look all menacing and intimidating in the bottle, but not so when you wear them.
