The Fabulous Perks of Benefit’s New Flagship Store

Girls, get ready to get your beauty on next time you are in downtown San Francisco. Benefit, one of the crown jewels of San Francisco companies recently opened their new flagship right smack-in-the-middle of downtown and let’s just say, the space is like a paradise in the middle of a busy jungle.

I attended the opening party last month and it was a delightful fete filled with fantastic makeup (obviously), music, nibbles and bubbly. The best part for me was bumping into my old colleague, ABC7’s news anchor Carolyn Johnson and catching up for a bit.

As for the space, every little piece of detail is taken into account — from the pretty in pink wall paper and decor to its cute phrases and cheeky product names — Fakeup and the Pore Professional are just to name a few. The makeup artists are terrific and ready to glam you up for any occasion. Be sure to try their They Area Real! Mascara (hands down the best in the biz) and of course, the potion that started this powerhouse Benetint, which is a lip color and blush in one!

Assistant Boutique Proprietor Kendréa Chandler sure knows all things Benefit! I met her while she still worked at their Chestnut Street store, and she taught me the art of diminishing my infamous raccoon eyes. So ladies know that Ms. K will truly take care of you when you head downtown for a product consultation, or two.

Oh the ‘benefits’ of living in such a fabulous city — you get the perks of having incredible flagships and once again, thanks for housing such amazing headquarters in the City by the Bay. Whether you are visiting or simply need a pick-me-up after work, be sure to stop and get a bit pampered (or just play with their shadows).
