Beauty Product Reviews
I purchased this before knowing that it contains a permanent shade in the regular line, Rose Gold. For the life of me I cannot figure out why Becca keeps repeating products in these palettes. I give up. First Champagne Pop and now this? Ugh! I don't want that the new shade bad enough to have repeats of Rose Gold. No thanks. The blush is nice and the bronzer is just ok. The two highlighters look the same on the cheeks.
Definite Learning Curve -- but it works!
The first time I ever use this product I used it all over my face in the morning per the instructions. I was able to apply my make up over this with no issues. That said the burning and sensitivity I experience with this product lasted literally all day! It was extremely uncomfortable and offputting. At that point I decided I would never use it again. A week later I decided to spot treat some dark spots left by acne and just areas over my cheeks where I have hyperpigmentation, and use it at night . I am pleased to say that was the key to tolerating this product and using it effectively. It really does work. This definitely is something that can cause irritation and strong tingling. It's not the smoothest cream around and has a gritty texture but if you can tolerate that and just use on small areas of the face for just a few minutes under the rest of your skin care you may see results with this product. for the most part my acne darkness has disappeared it took about a week of treatment and the hyperpigmentation on my cheeks is fading. because I have to use so small of an amount I expect this product to last quite some time so for just under six dollars it's a steal!
Loved My 2017 Lucky Bag!
It was great fun unboxing all of the super stuff in my awesome lucky bag this year. This is my first time getting one and it was truly fabulous. Items received included a Natasha Denona palette, a BECCA Rose Gold highlighting powder, Oribe Dry Shampoo, Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerize Cream Shadow, RCMA No Color Powder, Jouer Lip Cream, and Bioderma Sensibio. LOVE IT ALL!!!
The Best Multitasking Blush/Bronzer/Highlight EVER
I'll start out by saying that I didn't have high hopes for this product. The reviews are mixed so I decided to try for myself. This Neo-Bronzer is great! The Siena tone is warm, natural and not over the top bright. I can see why people didn't really care for it though. It takes a bit of trail and error to figure out how best to use it. My method is to view this product is five (5) distinct sections. The darkest I use for a very light contouring and bronzing, I then use the fourth section in my "quad" to define just above the contour area fading up, the center section of my "quad" I use to add the peachy color to the apples of my cheeks. Sections 1 and 2 I use to lightly define the high points of my face. Just look at the photo of this product, there are five visible sections!!! Anyway, once you view it and use it this way, you'll get the hang of it. Beautiful product! Just beautiful!
Wear Time Not Good
This eye shadow palette applies like a dream, colors are smooth, pigmented and rich. If only they would stay that way throughout wear time. Unfortunately, three hours into wearing these shadows, they are all but gone! The shimmer shade completely went away leaving an odd glittery film on the lid. I tried this with several high quality primers and shadow bases with the same result. Unfortunately I had to return these.
