in Makeup, Product Review

boing

I had no idea what I have been missing out on because Benefit’s Boi-ing is UHH-MAZING!. I had been faithful to Clinique’s Quick Corrector and since that did the job just fine, never really thought to try anything else. But man, Boi-ing is just concealer heaven.

Coverage-wise, this is simply superb. You just need to have warm fingers in order to properly deposit the product on your under eyes and a little goes a long way. What I love even more is that it does not make my under eyes grayish nor is it too light that I end up with reverse raccoon eyes.

I’d be hard pressed to find anything I don’t like about Benefit’s Boi-ing. My only teeny-tiny, itty-bitty gripe would be that unless you warm your fingers or have left the container in the back pocket of your pants (bum warming! hee hee) it will take a few minutes to get it to the right consistency for smoother application since it is in a pot.

All things considered, IJUSTLOVETHISTHINGTHANKYOUVERYMUCH. Definitely an instant fave.

Oh, it’s now 2:30 am. So much for me sleeping before 1 am :( .

Must. Sleep. Soon.

YES!!! I love Boi-ing and I also wrote in my review (it was my first ever post on BF!) that you need to warm it up first. I heard “erase paste” is also good, but a more creamier version. I’m on the loookout for a new one cause my Laura Mercier concealer just isn’t concealing like it used to. (Do products change after a year?! Cause this was amazing the beginning of the year). Might have to go back to Boi-ing, although the price hurts my heart a little :-P

Great review! Sorry for blabbering :-P

Isn’t it just all kinds of awesome?? And, yes, Erase Paste is a much creamier version. idk I kind of like the fact that this isn’t too creamy that it creases on my eyes right away? I can’t say anything though because I haven’t really used Erase Paste.

And, in regards to your LM concealer.. hmmmmm…..do you have the same pot? If you do, then I’m sure the concealer itself has changed to some degree due to oxidation. But if you’ve already replenished, then it might be due to a change in the formulation or something… but I don’t think that’s very likely.

Also, THANKS! I love to read epic comments hahaha jk.

I will definitely have to try this product out. Someone recommended something called Lemon-Aid to me (is it by Benefit? I don’t even know) and I didn’t like it at all. Of course, it’s probably just me and my dumb makeup self but you have pretty clear instructions (warm fingers? I GOT THOSE) so hopefully, this will help my zombie face.

Hi Sydney!

I have also tried Lemon-Aid, but I also didn’t like it. And, yes, it is by Benefit…. I don’t know is it just me or are Benefit products either a hit or a miss? Like the Bathina… I have no clue what that does or why anyone would even consider to buff their entire body in “wax.” I could be wrong, though.

hahaha at warm fingers. I don’t always have warm fingers (ew?) so I sometimes have to warm ‘em up with my hair dryer.. tmi tmi
