Benefit Her Name Was Glowla Incoming in October!

"Why hello there", says I to myself when I opened the package from Benefit, "what's all this then?" This, ladies, is a new kit from the brand due out in October. It's called Her Name Was Glowla, and it'll cost us €39.50 of our Eurofunds.

And I think it might just be the best one they've ever done. Benefit's kits can be hit and miss - some are great like Realness of Concealness and Big Beautiful Eyes and some you just wonder why you'd be bothered shelling out, especially if you already own a few key products from the brand. This I like, because barring foundation, it's pretty much got everything you need for a full face.

So I took lots and lots of pix to show you precisely what I mean.

Designed to be all things luminising, shimmering and skin-flattering, we've got a mini Coralista, weeny High Beam and Moonbeam highlighters, BadGal Lash mascara, Life on the A List gloss and a five eyeshadow pan plus brush. It all comes in a sturdy case about 5" by 5" and there's a little booklet included too, to help you get the most out of the products.

Want a closer look at some of the goodies inside?

Your wish etc: shades are shimmery but not blingy and come in Passion Pearl, Peachy Sheen, Terracotta Satin, Steamy Copper and Deep Bronze.

And here's another of the gloss and mascara.

Like all Benefit launches, this is overpriced for this market - the sterling charge is a much easier to swallow £29.50. You can also buy online via the brand's US site* where Her Name is Glowla will cost $36. That works out at about €26.40 but you'll also pay for shipping and could be nabbed for customs, so weigh it up before you commit.
