I used to be a die hard Benefit Lemonaid user and I stocked up it before it was discontinued a few years ago! Sadly, Benefit never brought it back nor have they done anything similar to it so when I ran out of my little stash I had to find a replacement.
Benefit Lemonaid was a creamy, pale yellow concealer of sorts for your eyelids. It worked great as a prep for shadow but most importantly, it brightened up the entire eye area and made me look awake and fresh. I found a replacement of sorts in MAC Soft Ochre Paint Pot. It’s a yellow beige and not the same shade as Lemonaid but surprisingly, I’ve learned over the years it’s a way better match for my skin tone and has a brightening effect as well as looking natural on my eyelids. No matter what sort of look I’m going for or even if I’m not wearing eyeshadow at all my makeup starts with Soft Ochre. It’s absolutely a must have in my opinion! It’ll be on sale tomorrow, March 13th at ulta.com for $13 along with all the rest of the MAC Paint Pot shades. And yes, I’ll be stocking up 🙂
Muse Approval on this one. It’s a keeper!
