I wish becca would do a pale iridescent shade with maybe a blue, green or purple shift that would be cool. Doesn't have to be crazy in your face if they think that wouldn't be "mainstream" enough but it'd be nice to have something like that in their formula.
Or an orange/sorbet-ish color shift?! Le sigh.

I already have moonstone and Opal, I like becca highlighters but if it doesn't wow me I'll probably pass I have a decent amount of highlighters now and a lot of them look similar on the face when they're in the same color family.

I use Ritual everywhere that I would place bronzer and I brush it over my cheeks too, but I'm NW45 (and tanning) so Ritual is more of a brown-rosey glow for me. It's not really a bronzer in the traditional sense for me (nor could I contour with it but I could layer it over my contour) and it's not a highlighter either. It's a blush bronzer (I mean that is actually what Laura Mercier calls it). It just warms my face and when I layer it over a traditional, deeper bronzer, I can see Ritual even more.
Thanks TT-------Got it!!!! I've seen that done and it looks so good!!!!!! I use it to bronze & /or contour.

I read somewhere it was supposedly a cross btw Opal and rose gold shades!!
I think they need to have a Topaz and Rose Gold baby. THAT I would buy without blinking.

Do you have a swatch of it. We're the same shade and I swatched Ritual instore and didn't hear the angels sing like I thought I would. I should've just bought it though 'cause now I'm here thinking it might just have been a jacked up tester. I think they need to have a Topaz and Rose Gold baby. THAT I would buy without blinking.

Have u tried Plum Sorbet from Black Radiance??? It's every purple toned blush's dream... It's much cooler toned than Full of joy and warmer than Plum Foolery

No I haven't but I meant a plummy highlight. Is Plum Sorbet shimmery? I have Sleek's Pomegranate and Black Up's 03 blush in the old formulation. They are plummy goodness! Sleek's Blush by 3 in Pink Sprint is also beautiful.

I was just thinking that [on my way to pick up another Shea Moisture Illuminating Powder]!!!

Why can't they mix shades that differ more on the spectrum? Granted Moonstone and Opal are different, but do we really need the two of them mixed together? Moonstone's a light gold and Opal's a soft beige so is a mix going to really be that different from either; it's splitting the difference of not that much difference. I'm sorry to rain on the parade of people who are excited. I'm just disappointed is all.

Maybe we'll get something with a bit more color with the fall collection (I'm guessing there will be one). With Blushed Copper and Topaz it's clear that Becca doesn't seem afraid of color so maybe there will be some surprises in the future.

And yes I will swatch Ritual!

I also just ordered the Shea Moisture Illuminating Powders in Boracay Hibiscus, Havana Sunrise and Vanuata Nude, and I just exchanged Cinnamon Ceylon for Tortola Tan (which is very pretty and subtle by the way). I'm not holding my breath over Havana Sunrise, but I needed to meet the free shipping quota and not knowing what it looks like was just going to nag at me. I'll just return it later if I don't like it. It seems like it could be like Cinnamon Ceylon without the more prominent sparkles and I hope it is. They look similar in color so here's hoping! I'll swatch all five when they arrive.

I revisited Iman's Bronzer in Clay - man that thing is pretty.

OH, I forgot to ask last night. Has anybody tried these City Color Cosmetics Beach Beauty Bronzers?

http://citycolorcosmetics.com/face/bronzers/beach-beauty-bronzer/#.VXkJZflViko



I saw Jackie Aina on YT swatch one in her video with her Generation Beauty haul and she said one of the colours was a finer milled copy of the BB Bronze Glow and the other was like arriving in the promise land! I want them all lol. I'm not sure which one she swatched though. I feel it was Sunset but someone in the comments said it was Dawn. I don't care though. They're $5 and I want them ALL!!
