Becca Cosmetics.
Anyone try their creme blushes? What'd y'all think?

I like their loose powder and tinted moisturizer, but over all some of their products are expensive.

I love the concealer, but at 33 bucks? Um..how about not.

Anyways, i was looking into their creme blushes, since it was featured in magazines and such.

I already have a Stila CC in Magnolia though. Still, you can never own too many products.

I haven't tried their cream blush but have been lusting after 'Turkish Rose' - it always seems to pop up in magazines as one of their most recommended shades. Recently got their LSC in Camel - really lovely for first-time foundation wearers (like myself).

Oh gawd! I LOVE their creme blushes. So blendable and mega-pigmented. You can go dramatic or subtle with these things!

I have Amarylis, Frangipani, and Wild Orchid.

BECCA
Have any of you tried or heard of this line?

Well I just got turned on to there foundation line.. and im telling you ladies this is one AWESOME product.. I was having a problem with my foundation with the MAC lines ( even the Hyper Real line- which I adored at first. ) All of them were just not looking right on my face, dulling up & not setting right, ect...

Well I went to the BECCA counter cause my friend told me about it and if you have a problem with foundations, to oily, dry, combo.. or just really sensative skin, I HIGHLY reccomend you trying this out.. it sets so flawless, its light, luminious... it also has a SPF 20 + The line comes from Austrilla.. so you Aussies might have something good to say about it...

Its kinda on the expensive side but IMO its totally worth it.

They sell it at some Sephora stores (sephora.com has it)--- I used to have it at Nordstrom, but they pulled out the counter for NARS.

I love the concealer--- great for blemishes. There are just so many colors-- it's hard to know what color you are w/o seeing them.

Becca?
Has anyone ever used any Becca products? How's the quality, packaging, pigmentation, etc?

There's this GORGEOUS holiday set on Sephora that I'm thinking about getting:

but I have no experience with the brand and I'd like to find out more before I buy it.

Anyone? TIA.

I've never tried Becca's m/u line but I can tell you their brushes are fab! I have heard great things about the Becca line from many people. My cousin has a few of the lip products and she will not buy anything but Becca Glossy lip tint. I don't live close to her otherwise I would have already tested her's.
She told me they are very nice and not very stick but yet last a long time.

I think she just bought that new kit. She was going on about some the Athena powder the other day. I won't talk to her until wed. of next week but I will ask her if she likes it.

Has anyone tried the foundation brush in particular? I'm thinking of splurging on one from Sephora ($38) after being disappointed in the MAC and Px foundation brushes. It's gotten good (but very few) reviews on MUA, so I was wondering :confused:

I'm always eyeing the Becca line when I go into Sephora! It's pretty pricy like NARS but deffinitelly worth the cash. I especially love the eye shadows and brushes. Oh, and the packaging is kind of like that of NARS but it's got a metal center piece. I'm sure it holds up really well to drops etc. HTH!
