Cheap Benefit Cosmetics and a Free Benefit Pallette

dotty22

If you buy direct from Benefit in America you can buy their products for US prices (a lot cheaper than in the UK) and you also get free shipping and a Free Georgia pallette (worth £26) if you spend over £55. You get a lot more for £55 than you would here.

I've gone through the pros and cons and given more information here.

You can find the offer on Benefit's website here.

BTW all the prices remain in dollars so you will have to use a currency converter like XE.com to work out how much you are spending.

Limit to one per customer.

So you need to spend $102 - any recommendations?

vik6525

savings4me

Really? Where do you getit from normally and at what cost. Why is it so good? I've not heard of it before and it's seems a lot to spend on make up unless I can get a fiend to share it with me.

Its the one and only thing that i dont 'money save' on... i buy cheap clothes, get my oh to cut my hair etc but i only buy benefit stuff! (and no im not on commission!) i normally buy it in debenhams, and it is pretty expensive i have to admit, but the stuff last for AGES. on my cheeks and lips i use 'benetint' which is a rosey coloured stain. I use it every day, and ive had the bottle for 2 1/2 years! I could go on and on here, but all i will say is that 'price per wear' the stuff actually works out cheaper than say 'collection 2000' products which i find slide off my face in about half an hour!

whats tj hughes?

vik6525

They dont do the make up on the website.... .... how much is stuff usually reduced by?

Sorry to put a damper on this girls but there is a big sting in the tail- customs. Any orders over £18 are subject to vat plus a charge for handling by royal mail . I can give you an example of price from my own sad experiance. Order of £100 + £17 vat + £16 parcel force handling fee. So it cost me £ 33 to get my make up from customs- I would not wish the same on others.

loads of Benefit stuff greatly reduced at TJ hughes Liverpool ,up to 75% off.

Yes I had wondered how much the customs charges would be - others suggested it would only be 17.5% but clearly that isn't the case - What was the parcel force handling fee for?

As for Benefit recommendations...

Dr Feelgood - balm which peps up your skins apperance
Brow Zings - great brow kit
Dallas - Bronzer good for pale skins
Benetint- fab lip and cheek stain
Highbeam - gorgeous highlighter

But everything I've ever tried from Benefit has been fantastic!
