This set empowers you to create a polished, ready-for-anything look with ease. Here's how to integrate each product into your routine for optimal results:
Prep with The POREfessional Smoothing Face Primer:
Apply a thin layer of primer onto clean, moisturized skin, focusing on areas where pores are visible (e.g., T-zone, cheeks).
Gently pat and blend with your fingertips, allowing it to set for a few moments before applying foundation or bronzer.
Real-World Tip: A small amount goes a long way. This primer creates a smooth base, helping makeup glide on effortlessly and last longer.
Bronze with Hoola Matte Bronzer:
Using a soft bronzer brush, tap off any excess product.
Sweep the bronzer across your cheekbones, forehead, chin, and jawline for a natural-looking warmth.
Real-World Tip: For a sculpted look, apply under your cheekbones, along the temples, and under the jawline. Build coverage gradually for a seamless finish.
Volumize Lashes with BADgal BANG! Mascara:
Wiggle the mascara wand from the base of your lashes to the tips, coating each lash thoroughly.
Apply multiple coats for added volume and drama.
Real-World Tip: For maximum lift, hold the brush at the base of your lashes for a few seconds before pulling through. This mascara is designed to be buildable without clumping.
Set Brows with 24-HR Brow Setter:
Brush the clear gel through your brows using the custom-molded wand, styling hairs into your desired shape.
Real-World Tip: For extra hold, apply a second layer after the first has dried slightly. This product is excellent for taming unruly brow hairs and setting a specific brow style.
Treat Skin with The POREfessional Deep Retreat (Sample):
On a separate occasion (e.g., once or twice a week), apply a thin, even layer of the mask to clean, dry skin.
Leave on for the recommended time (check sample packaging for specific instructions, typically 10-15 minutes), then rinse thoroughly with warm water.
Real-World Tip: Focus on areas prone to breakouts or excess oil for a deeper cleanse. This sample provides a great opportunity to experience its purifying benefits.
Upon receiving your Benefit A-List Set, simply unbox the products. There is no complex setup required. The recommended application order for your makeup routine is The POREfessional Smoothing Face Primer, followed by Hoola Matte Bronzer, then BADgal BANG! Volumizing Mascara, and finally 24-HR Brow Setter. The POREfessional Deep Retreat sample mask is a separate treatment to be used on clean skin, not as part of your daily makeup application.
Skin Types: The POREfessional Primer is generally suitable for most skin types, particularly those concerned with pores or shine. Hoola Bronzer is designed to be universally flattering across various skin tones.
General Use: These products are designed for external cosmetic use. If you have known allergies or sensitivities to cosmetic ingredients, it is always recommended to perform a patch test on a small area of skin before full application.
Storage: Store all products in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain their efficacy and shelf life.
Hygiene: Always ensure caps and lids are tightly closed after use to prevent drying out and contamination.
Applicators: For optimal performance and hygiene, regularly clean any makeup brushes used with the Hoola Bronzer. Avoid sharing mascara to prevent eye infections. The mascara and brow setter wands are designed for direct application and do not require cleaning.
