Becca Poured Shimmering Skin Perfectors in Rose Gold, Opal & Topaz: Review and Swatches

I have a headache! LOL I purchased several of Becca's POURED Shimmering Skin Perfectors last year.  They were on sale at Ulta. I'm just getting around to reviewing them, because I had to pack my makeup up due to construction. Welllllllllll, Becca has THREE TYPES of Skin Perfectors: PRESSED, LIQUID & POURED. Me did not know that! :P HaHaHa When I did my Champagne Pop Collection Review, the POURED Champagne Pop threw me for a loop. I didn't quite get it. Well these three threw me for a loopy-loop! But I've done a little research and think I've figured them out...

After using PRESSED, POURED & LIQUID SKIN PERFECTORS, I prefer (and would recommend to you) PRESSED & LIQUID! PRESSED gives you A LOT of pigmentation that you can SEE on your face. LIQUID gives your skin beautiful illumination, plus you can mix it in with your foundation, primer, bb cream etc. I'm not as impressed with POURED EXCEPT ... EXCEPT FOR OPAL! My review for each is below.

Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector in Topaz  - Sweet

Topaz swatched BEAUTIFULLY! It's a bronze with lots of gold in it! You can see it on my nose, cheeks & cupids bow. BUT, this is for darker skin tones (according to Becca's video below) and I must agree.  For me to wear this, I have to bronze & contour for it to look good. So, I wouldn't recommend this for lighter skin tones. Also...once you apply Topaz, it's not as pigmented as you would swatch it on your hand. You're blending it INTO your makeup! So it spreads out, gives you a wisp of color but lots of luminosity.

Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector in Rose Gold - Bittersweet

I didn't like Rose Gold at all. And now, I know why! I'm a medium skin tone. AGAIN, in Becca's video (below) they state this is for darker skin tones. LOL It doesn't look bad, but I could tell something wasn't right. See, this is why it's important to research products before purchasing. BUT my mistake, will help someone from making the same mistake. That's why I love blogging. Rose Gold simply blended into my skin. So all I can use it for is luminosity. 

Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector in Opal - Supersweet

Here's THE WINNER! OPAL! This surprised me and knocked my socks off! It's a Universal "color" and I love it! I'm going to start using this everyday. Opal seems to give your skin a natural lit from within glow. It is so beautiful! I'm not sure if I captured it in these pictures, but I was like WOW! I put it on my cheeks, forehead, under my eyebrows, and cupids bow. I love the glow it gave my face. It's fab. The next time this is on sale BUY IT! FYI - I'm wearing Kylie's Lip Gloss in Literally; Too Faced Born This Way Foundation in Sand
