Becca's 10th Anniversary Palette in Dusty Rose - Review and Swatches

Next up is the other Anniversary Palette in this collection, Dusty Rose. I just knew that this would wow me. WOW.

Dusty Rose houses four of Becca's cream products. From the top right corner going anti-clockwise, we have:

• Lip Gloss in Cassini - very sheer nude pink
• Creme Blush in Turkish Rose - muted nude rose
• Lip & Cheek Creme in Tuberose -fresh medium pink with a hint of peach
• Creme Highlighter in Narcissus - a highly pigmented light gold

L-R: Cassini, Turkish Rose, Tuberose, Narcissus, Cassini layered on top of Tuberose

Verdict: This palette is a winner for me. I can see myself using all four shades to create a complete daytime look that is fresh, flawless and never overdone. I highly recommend using Turkish Rose all over your cheeks for a natural "base" cheek colour. Layer Tuberose on the apples of your cheeks. Use Tuberose again on the lips, followed by Cassini. Lightly dab Narcissus on top of your cheekbones to highlight. DONE! :)

Becca's 10th Anniversary Palette in Vintage Jewel - Review and Swatches

Zuneta had a fabulous 20% off code in February and I took my chance to purchase some newly released Becca products that cost a bomb in Australia. I just don't get it. Becca is an Australian brand, so why should it cost twice as much to buy these products locally?

Anyway, I will be doing a Becca review-athon in the next few hours so you can see what I purchased and just how totally gorgeous and droolworthy these products are.

Vintage Jewel houses four of Becca's cream products. From the top right corner going anti-clockwise, we have:

• Lip Gloss in Cosmopolitan - very sheer deepened berry shade
• Creme Blush in Hyacinth - medium neutral (?) pink ... LOVE this!!
• Lip & Cheek Creme in Snapdragon - peachy coral
• Creme Highlighter in Beechnut - a highly pigmented olive leaning gold

 

L-R: Cosmopolitan, Hyacinth, Snapdragon, Beechnut, Cosmopolitan layered on top of Snapdragon

Beechnut sheered out

This is definitely a palette for darker skinned gals. That highlighter will not work on anyone who falls in the fair to medium skin range. It can be sheered out to a lovely glowly sheen and it is worth mentioning that Becca's cream blushes/highlighters are really great, second only to Illamasqua's blushes. They are so easy to blend, and nicely pigmented.

Verdict: Vibrant, nicely pigmented (except for the gloss), and easy to use. Highly recommended for darker skin, and will be great in summer.
