Becca Cosmetics, Beautiful You

BECCA COSMETICS IS MY NEW HERO

Two months ago, I visited Sephora in the mall to look for a new foundation that will give great coverage, but not feel so heavy.  I had a small makeover that prompted me to buy their Becca Ultimate Coverage foundation.  It cost me $44.


Before wearing Becca, I was wearing MAC's Studio Fix which was great except I didn't feel the color was right since my face is a darker tan but my neck and chest are two separate colors that are lighter.  I was so happy the beautician noticed this as no other one I worked with did.  So now I'm in love with the product.  I also had a issue with the T-zone shine I would get hours after doing my makeup.  But I'll write about what fixed that in another post.

It covers all your flaws and leaves you with a professional, beautiful look.




I also use Becca Ultimate Coverage foundation with Anastasia Beverly Hills Cream contour kit.




Becca Cosmetics also offers a wide variety of makeup, such as bronzers, shadow palettes, and color correctors. 




Did I forget to mention their awesome blushes? 



Here are their swatches for Becca Ultimate Coverage foundation.

So where can you find Becca Cosmetics?  Mostly at Ulta, Sephora, and any other misc beauty store who stocks various brands.  



I know it may seem like a steep price just for foundation but one must remember, it's FOUNDATION.  This is the base of your face.  This is what compliments your most looked at features.  And if you're already paying almost $30 for foundation from other retailers, $44 isn't too bad.  Also remember that these are the types of makeup you should only wear when going out somewhere special like on a date, a night out in Hollywood, or anywhere pictures are taken.  This will make your supply last.  

Also when I use the foundation, I only put one pump of makeup on my hand and that's really all you need.  That's another great thing about this makeup, the foundation has such a great consistency that all you need is a small amount, a brush, and possibly a MAC Fix + spray to moisten the brush and make it cover the entire face with that one pump.  As always do not forget to use a finishing powder and you're set.  Of course, include your special touches of eye shadows, liner, lip color, and blush.  I promise you will fall in love with this product.
