Now I don’t ordinarily endorse products especially make up products simply because I dont really use make up any more and I dont usually buy one beauty product more than once. I just don’t. I dont know much about make up just the basics. You could say I know squat. At 34 Im still learning what’s for what. Im pre u-tube makeup tutorials.
I blame my mother she gave up using make up after 40, sent me to ettiquite school at 13 and just assumed that they would teach me. They did to a degree but at 13 I wasnt intrested in makeup. Back then teenage girls where different I think. They taught me the over the top bold and beautiful style of the 80/90’s; three shades and blend I can still apply it but to me its hideaous drag queenish. So I guess I missed the boat and have since then been avoiding make up counters every where afraid that if I dare I may look like an over done soapie.
So Im learning and I have discovered and I guess most may already know about it but BECCA’S BEACH LIP AND CHEEK tint. I love it, I use it everyday. I just had to share it just in case you didn’t know about it either. I got mine back in March as a free offer with a magazine., normally I wouldn’t have looked twice, fear factor. Mine is watermelon.
So I brought the magazine and I’m hooked on it. I will buy it again.
One draw back…and yes there is one its EXSPENSIVE ridiculously so. $48.00 there abouts will get you just 7ml’s..I kid you not 7mls.
Yet its magic I may have had only slept two hours but this tint makes me look presentable. Feel presentable. Its make up without being makeup and that’s my kind of make up. I feel a little pretty with this on.
Its a creme. Its blend able they (Becca) claim its suits all skin types, is kiss and water proof, dries to a perfect streak free, non greasy and non drying finish. To me its FANTASTIC.
I apply after I have swathed myself in sunscreen and my anti wrinkle cream of the month. A little bit goes along way. Less is more and you can always add more. On the cheeks it gives just a hint of colour on the lips it can be a subtle tint or a full on lip colour. Its a dry matt perfectly blending on the cheeks but on the lips can be a little dry so I recommend some lip balm.
I have regular skin; I think. Its not dry nor is it oily. I don’t get a T zone (I remember reading that somewhere…see I know squat about beauty) and for me its wonderful but I have read a reviews that it didnt last long on oily skin. Like many of the reviews I noted also that it separates with the heat so before taking the lid off give the tube a little squeeze to help it remix.
I recommend reading the reviews before spending a crazy amount of money on any make up product. Try and get a sample somewhere if you can . Even I still have trouble justifying that amount of money for 7mls of product.
I just had to share.
Do you have a favourite product that you can share? Something that makes you go from feeling drab to fab so to speak?
Have a great Sunday everyone.
