I’ve used Benefit Cosmetics’ Hello Happy foundation – the soft blur one. And I liked it, even though it was a little too white for me. (Which is surprising, since I chose shade 4, which is a light-medium neutral. But it’s okay since it wasn’t something I couldn’t fix) Since then, Benefit had announced an expansion to the Hello Happy line, and it’s finally gone live.
The new items in the infamous label include a new “brightening” foundation and a velvet powder foundation that claims you won’t need anything else if you purchase it. Let’s take a quick look at what both products’ descriptions.
HELLO HAPPY FLAWLESS BRIGHTENING FOUNDATION
Medium coverage liquid foundation SPF 15 PA++
WHY WE LOVE IT
Brighten up, Baby!
Happiness is a brighter, hydrated, flawless-looking complexion. This medium coverage liquid foundation feels lightweight, looks natural and is virtually undetectable on skin. Contains photochromic pigments that instantly adapt to brighten skin in any lighting, natural or artificial. Flower acids to help boost radiance and hyaluronic acid attracts moisture to the skin’s surface and help maintain hydration.

The 12 shades feature neutral undertones to give ‘flexibility and stretch’, making them versatile enough to suit a range of skin tones.
HELLO HAPPY VELVET POWDER FOUNDATION

Both newbies are available for purchase online and in-store. But no word on when this drops in India. (as usual)
