The Bronze of Champions Kit
- New from Benefit, this $32 kit dresses up eyes, lips and cheeks in sunny shades of bronze.
- The kit includes sample sizes of Longwear Powder Eyeshadow in Thanks a Latte, Creaseless Cream Shadow in Bikini-Tini, Hoola Bronzing Powder, Watt’s Up Soft Focus Highlighter, They’re Real Mascara and Ultra Plush Lip Gloss in Hoola.
- Thumbs up for Hoola! — both the eyeshadows and the gloss. Love, love and love!
- They’re Real Mascara and Watt’s Up are pieces I’d use in a pinch, as opposed to regularly. Among similar products, Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector in Moonstone and Chanel Le Volume Mascara seem to work a little better for me.
- The shades in this kit should be neutral enough for warm- and cool-toned gals/guys with pale or medium skin tones, but darker damsels may crave deeper colors.
With this well-priced kit — a boon to babes with pale or medium skin tones — Benefit gives us yet another fun way to sample some of their sun-kissed shades.
PRICE: $32
AVAILABILITY: Coming next month (from mid to late December) exclusively to Sephora stores and sephora.com

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S. Sometimes after a long week, nothing beats 30 Rock reruns, veggie pasta and a glass of white wine. Am I right?
Nighty night. 🙂
I love a good bronzer and I love me some Queen!! 🙂
That really is a nice kit. I love that mascara and Watts Up is great also.
My favs from this one will be Creaseless Cream Shadow in Bikini-Tini, They’re Real Mascara & Ultra Plush Lip Gloss in Hoola.

I am not usually into Benefit kits, but WOW this one looks amazing – I would actually use all of the products!
Ah!!! You have GOT to stop showing me things I want! 😀
They’re real mascara is perfect for me. I have very long, medium thickness eye lashes, and it coats them perfectly and doesn’t clump or smudge. I have constant problems with mascaras that smudge b/c my eye lashes reach up to almost my eye brows, so if it smudges it creates a lot of problems. And the plush lip glosses are amazing-non sticky, nice sheer color, more balmy than shiny. I’ve been wanting to try the Hoola collection, since I’m fair to medium, so this will be awesome.
omg i really need this set ! i have very pale skin and i believe this set is going to be the solution to my problem! cant wait to get my hands on it!! =D thanks for showing it on your blog!!
This is cute! I am not a huge Benefit fan but this is really awesome!
I like how cute it is, and how it would make a nice gift for a similarly makeup obsessed friend!
Wonder if this will be available in uk
