Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector Moonstone

Product Information

Yes, you can definitely find cheaper alternatives like the ones from Essence Limited Editions and I'm sure more brands do similar ones. I still remember the early days of the brand when the line had those beautiful loose shimmering powders, pigmented eyeshadow singles and glowy lip glosses. Enriched with the power of ultra-fine, multi-toned, luminescent pearls, this A-list favourite is designed to replicate the dazzling natural light of the sun, bringing high-shine to cheeks, even on the dullest days.

In my 10 years of blogging, I have found that you can never read or watch enough reviews on a specific product. I’d love to try Opal, as I feel it would be a more frosty shade, but it’s an investment I shan’t be making for a while at least! Onto the colors, I’ve split the 15 colors I now own into 3 categories so you can see the shimmer/colors better up close. The pressed powder version of Moonstone is just as beautiful as the liquid version, it's super pigmented, buttery soft to swatch, long lasting and a little bit of this definitely goes a long way so a light hand is needed during application for sure. Mica, Talc, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Isostearyl Alcohol, Petrolatum, Silica, Boron Nitride, Nylon-12, HDI/Trimethylol Hexyllactone Crosspolymer, Dimethicone, Magnesium Stearate, Polyethylene, Sorbitan Sesquioleate, Paraffin, Cera Microcristallina (Microcrystalline Wax/Cire Microcristalline), Calcium Sodium Borosilicate, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Calcium Aluminum Borosilicate, Polyethylene Terephthalate, Acrylates Copolymer, Triethoxycaprylylsilane, Potassium Sorbate, Tetrasodium EDTA, Chlorphenesin, Tin Oxide.Personally I prefer the liquid Shimmering Skin Perfectors because they manage to remain undetectable on the skin while giving the most incredible glow.

I've suffered with acne for a large part of my life, and a common concern with regard to acne and highlighters is whether or not the highlighter will bring out the bumpy texture of acne under a foundation. I have tried applying this highlighter with a few different brushes and I find I am best off using a very soft fluffy brush rather than my normal denser brush, as if it applied to heavily it can look a little shiny. I firest tried it many times at the end of ma make-up, jut like i would do with ANY of my highlighters, even the cheap ones.It’s deeper than and has a much warmer yellow tone than Champagne Pop, which is cooler and more neutral than Prosecco Pop. Gradient Glow (also an Ulta exclusive) is a mix of Bronzed Amber, Moonstone, Opal, Rose Gold and Topaz pressed together in stripes. Apply BECCA Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter to the face with the fingertips, targeting those areas where you’d like to create a healthy glow. Again this gives a gorgeous warm, champagne coloured glow to the skin and even though it contains the smallest shimmering particles within it, it never looks chunky, glittery or disco ball-esk he he.

In comparison to the BECCA highlighters, the RMS Living Luminizer is a lot more natural looking on the skin. Step 2: Sweep onto the high points of the cheeks, creating a “C” shape as you move up toward the temple and brow bone. I think the strengths are the absolutely gorgeous packaging (reels me in every time), and the wide variety of shades.It has a lot of very small shimmer that gives it that lovely skin like sheen and it also has a few bigger shimmer which can be seen up close and looks like a gold or even multicolored.

In my swatches I actually had to build the RMS Living Luminizer up for it to be visible to the camera. Good highlighter, very pigmented - I find it to be a bit powdery at times and I prefer a cream highlighter, but it is a good staple highlighter if you like champagne powder highlighters! Quite desappointed with this one, in the way that you really must know how to apply it correctly to deliver its magic.At a glance, Moonstone is *almost* the same as Champagne Pop, if you just look at the pan, but this is a pale-gold with warm undertone. Enriched with nourishing vitamins, minerals and antioxidants to strengthen, repair and protect your complexion, the two textures within this set complement each other beautifully.
