The face primer is awesome. Apply it to your bare skin before adding your foundation or powder. Throughout the day if you need a little more brightening, then you can add it on top of your makeup.

At first I was turned off that this kit included blue mascara, as I’m not a real fan of any shade of mascara outside of black. However, I followed the tips from Sephora and used the blue just on the tips of my lashes, on top of my regular mascara. As a result, it really opens up your eyes.

The eye pencil is a light pink color that you think won’t do much. I applied it to just the outer corners of my eyes and it really made a difference.

The Benefit Bright Lights Big City! kit is available at Sephora.com for $48 ($82 value).
