This retro-kitsch American make-up line is taking the world by storm at the mo having arrived in London a few years back. Female Londoners can't get enough of their seriously effective make-up remedies to seriously troublesome problems. Purchase the lady in your life a pot of their 'High Beam' and your bound to win her heart. This magical stuff adds a radiant sheen to cheekbones and faces. The 'Benetint' is another old favourite. This waterproof marvel finishes cheeks and lips with rosy tint for hours on end. All the goodies come in funky packaging that appeals to any modish young ladies' modern sensibilities. There is so much to choose from - lip colours, foundations, eye-sparkles and nail varnishes. The good news is that the ladies who work in Benefit are so lovely and friendly and will lead any bewildered looking chap to exactly the right pressie. Hoorah for Benefit - you are truly welcome on these shores!
