Last Spring, I shared with Raging Rouge readers my use of Benefit Cosmetics sparkling loose eye powder in Miss Moon as both an eyeshadow and a highlighter.  Still using the same container, and still LOVE the stuff!

Good news!  This wet/dry loose powder shadow is now FREE with any Benefit Cosmetics purchase of $50 or more!  You’ll even have the opportunity to select the shade you prefer.  My recommendation for the season is still the multi-talented Miss Moon shade.
