Color wasn't right

Describe Yourself:
Brand Buyer
Skin Tone:
Fair
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Benefit Cosmetics Some Kind-A Gorgeous:

This is a great product, but my skin is very fair and this turned orange on me like most everything does. But it felt fantastic when I put it on my skin - if you can get the color to work for you it's great.

Runs out too fast!
By Ash from Dallas on 6/23/2010
Pros:
Blends Well, Easy To Apply, Goes On Smoothly, Lightweight
Describe Yourself:
Brand Buyer
Skin Tone:
Fair
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Benefit Cosmetics Some Kind-A Gorgeous:

I bought this because I wanted something more lightweight for the summer, and at first I was really happy with the way it looked. I blended it with a brush (the Benefit girl at my store recommended that to make it last longer since the sponge soaks up the makeup), and I liked the way it looked. However, my skin would become oily looking if I so much as stepped outside or got the least bit hot. Obviously that's a risk anyone runs in summertime, but the Smashbox I used before this provided better coverage throughout the day.

Bottom line, if you have skin that does not get shiny easily or if you don't plan on wearing it for extended periods outside, then it's a good foundation. I do like the way it looks on my skin when i first put on my makeup- flawless and lightweight.

My other big complaint is how fast I went through the product itself. The compact is not very deep, so I didn't get as much use from it as I had hoped.

Comments about Benefit Cosmetics Some Kind-A Gorgeous:

It's light to medium coverage foundation, perfect for summer (or any other season if you want the natural feel). It turns to kind of matte powdery finish afte you apply it, but never feels dry. Easy to add some more throughout the day. I love it.

Perfect Summer Cover
By NanaCVerified Buyer from Oklahoma on 6/13/2010

Not long wearing

Dry Skin, Hint of color, Light To Medium Coverage, Mature Skin, Normal Skin
Describe Yourself:
Brand Buyer
Skin Tone:
Medium
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Benefit Cosmetics Some Kind-A Gorgeous:

Very light, easy to apply. Good for a "summer face": not a heavy foundation. Don't expect full coverage or masking deep imperfections; but do expect a nice hint of color/smoothing out of your own color. (Your face, just better). Applicator sponge makes it easy to apply, but don't overload the sponge (or you'll waste product). I've ordered this twice now and will continue to do so

I like Benefit it is good but THE SOME KINDA GORGEOUS was a bit to oily for me especially in the with the hot weather. it also doesnt last very long about 2 months and 28 dollars is pricey for 2 months.The coupons dont apply to Benefit and thats what I went to ulta for.I wish the coupons could apply or the dollars off.

Comments about Benefit Cosmetics Some Kind-A Gorgeous:

I don't like to wear pounds of make-up so this product is great. It goes on silky smooth and feels light. It provides good coverage without looking fake. My only problem is that when I wear it my mascara smudges under my eyes. Not sure why.
