Essential!

I've purchased one of these on my own and received another as a gift. Even wearing a full face of makeup most days the kit lasted a long time. The Porefessional primer is an ample size as you only need to use a very little bit to start covering up dilated pores. The foundation was a great shade for me in light, but the second concealer shade didn't really fit with my skintone. The powder is a great finishing touch but I generally used a specific brush rather than the smaller brush they provide in the kit. The price seems a bit high at first but when you consider you're getting a decent size of a variety of products it seems quite reasonable. I would recommend to others especially if they are dipping their toes into the makeup waters or just want a kit that does it all.

Currently trying out this product and really loving it! The kit comes with small sample sizes of their POREfessional primer, Hello Flawless Oxygen WOW foundation, 2 shades of Boing concealers, and Hello Flawless powder foundation. It also includes a brush for the powder foundation (although I don't actually use it)

Pros:
- includes all the products to create a flawless complexion (so you don't have to buy them individually)
- great coverage (when using all products together)
- very buildable
- looks natural
- doesn't cake

Cons:
- not the best staying power (looks perfectly flawless for about half the day, before I need to touch up with the powder to look perfect again)
- sizes of items are pretty small (but for $38, its not too bad)
- concealer isn't the best match for me

I've generally shy-ed away from Benefit products because of their product packaging ... It looks too tacky and childish to me. But I am really impressed with the foundation set. Everything comes together nicely and compliments each other to create the perfect flawless complexion. For anyone that is curious about Benefit's foundation, I would definetly recommend buying this kit. I will be buying the full size items for everything (except maybe the concealer) once I've finished the products in this kit!
