BECCA X Jaclyn Hill Champagne Pop Shimmering Skin Perfector applied to my cheekbone, under my brows, above brow, and center of nose. |
So this review is a tad bit late, but better late than never
right? So I’m currently still mourning the death of the television show
Hannibal. Though there are still a couple of episodes left, I cant get over the
fact that its almost over. In these trying times I need my highlight to be ferocious.
Seriously, I need my highlight to shine like a beacon through the night, to get
me through these sad times…fabulously of course.

This is where the limited edition Sephora exclusive BECCA x
Jaclyn Hill Champagne Pop Shimmering Skin Perfector comes in. This $38 highlight was created by BECCA
cosmetics in collaboration with YouTube guru Jaclyn Hill, who has partnered
with Gerard Cosmetics and Morphe Brushes in the past, and it does not
disappoint.

The highlight is described as a soft white gold with pinky
peach undertones; on my skin tone it’s more of a warm pale gold that gives a
very apparent but very subtle shine. Apparent because of the fact that its
amazingly beautiful and reflects light/life amazingly; subtle because its not
packed with shimmer. My pores don’t appear to be emphasized with this highlight
and that is the mark of a truly amazing highlight. Also, a lot of people are
saying it’s WOC of color friendly and I’m leaning more towards the fact that it
is, but please try it out for yourself first.

The formula for this highlighter is the traditional BECCA ‘shimmering
skin perfector’ formula. The highlight itself is so creamy and so pigmented; I
only need to lightly touch my brush to the product to get amazing payoff and
shine. The glow lasts on my cheeks ALL DAY and polishes off my makeup
beautifully.
My only problem with the Champagne Pop highlighter is how
sensitive the product is. When I (and many others) first received the highlight
in the mail it came complete shattered (Sephora quickly sent a new one). This
highlighter IS NOT I REPEAT IS NOT travel friendly. You could of course attempt
to protect the highlight with paper towel or cotton pads to keep the product
safe during travel, but even then it’s too sensitive and could easily shatter.
Best to keep it at home at the vanity.

Long story short, I would definitely recommend this
highlight. It’s very beautiful and also very limited edition; You get 8 grams
of beautiful highlight for $38 and an envy worthy glow.
So have you gotten Champagne Pop fever? Recommend any dupes?

I am a big fan of Becca highlighters. They are so good in quality, so well pigmented and so looks so good on me. Really good and long lasting. I bought this one after doing my makeup lessons for pro artists by expert Lina, I am trying out new makeup items to improve my knowledge and skills. Lina is really good and best in my town.
