How Much? €26.50 from Benefit stockists nationwide
Pros:
- In my experience Benefit liquids last and last, then last some more.

- Two products in one: highlighter & bronzer
Cons:
- Expensive
- There is a nack to applying that I have just not picked up on yet!
And the winner is…..
Elf! The quality of the products are actually quite similar in terms of wear, building colour up on the skin etc. Benefit got a thumbs down from me because even though their liquids last ages it is still quite expensive. It’s also very bronzing on the skin and I’m just not sure I like that. I’ll give it another go but it’s not something I think I would buy. On the other hand if you are a fan of liquid bronzers then this would be right up your street! The ELF pen is excellent value for money and decent quality. I’m going to order some of the other shades and they won’t break the bank either!
