Becca Cosmetics Half moon brush

January 9, 2009 By 4 Comments

Is Becca Cosmetics new half moon brush worth it?becca-brush2

Becca Cosmetics has come out with a new half moon brush.  It is made from goat hair and synthetic fibers.  This brush is nice and wide so it is great for cheeks, neck, face and even your shoulders if they are showing in January.  You can tell by the feel of this brush that it is a higher quality then most other brushes.  This brush also makes application of powders and bronzers effortless.  The only thing that I do not like about this brush is the price.  I think that $45 is a bit much for a brush.  Perhaps it is because I am a mom and I can think about 100 other things that I would rather have spent $45 on or perhaps it is because I am looking at the total global economic state.  I just think that many of us need things like food and gas in our cars more then we need a $45 makeup brush!

Becca Cosmetics – New Glossy Lip Tint | Angel Kisses

October 20, 2008 By Leave a Comment

Well I have purchased another Becca Cosmetics product to review. Becca Cosmetics new glossy lip tint angel kisses. I think that it is quite wonderful. To start with it has a strawberry taste to it that makes your lips delicious for you and anyone else who has to pleasure to taste them. It was a great added bonus to this product.

Angel kisses is a wonderful new gloss. As we already know I love lip gloss. It is so sexy and stays shiny for much longer then plain lipstick. Angel kisses has a faint tint of color but I have used it as a clear coat. Last night I colored my lips in with my favorite lip liner. I just love to way the color looks. After that I was able to put angel kisses glossy lip tint over it to make it shine and pop. I cannot wait until I can use it again! I am thinking it will be great over some of my lip stick colors also. I did think that $23 was a little high price wise although I did notice that you use less of it then some other brands which will remain nameless. As always you can go to www.beccacosmetics.com to purchase this product or search it in Google. Be warned though it is currently sold out on their website. It is worth searching for though!

Becca Cosmetics Product Review- New for Fall

October 11, 2008 By 2 Comments

There are great new colors at Becca Cosmetics. I decided to try the NEW Avalon Palette. This palette included 2 powder eye colors, 1 cream eye color, 1 cream blush, 1 eye liner and a dual-ended brush. I have found that these colors are great for the fall. I really love the cream eye color. It feels light on my eyes once it is dry. It all lasts through the day without reapplying. The eye liner is great too. It goes on smooth without any clumping. I think that for the price it is worth it! You are going to love it!

How To apply Lip Gloss

September 12, 2008 By 12 Comments

Let’s Begin

  • Choose a high-quality quality lip gloss like Becca Cosmetics Cherry Bomb. It is wonderful for girls who want to bring some attention to their lips.
  • Use a mirror to help you apply a good amount of lip-gloss on the tip of the wand. If your gloss is in a lip gloss pot, use a thin brush.
  • Softly purse out your lips and work in the gloss. Make sure you stay in the lines don’t apply outside the lip-line. Using a lip pencil will make this task easier.
  • GOOD TIP Form Mom* Place your finger inside your mouth and pull outward after application. This will help you so that the gloss doesn’t get on your teeth.

Do’s

  • To prevent mistakes, you often can’t feel a mirror is highly recommended!
  • Relax and take your time, if you rush you will get bad results and badly applied lip-gloss looks horrible.
  • I think that lip-gloss with wands might be easyer as they provide more application control.
  • Choose the right color for the occasion make sure the outfit, and of course your skin tone all flow.
  • For full lips – try using lighter shades this will give you nice results.
  • For thin Lips – Try a high colored gloss pinks and reds to make your lips appear fuller.
  • If you have someone in you life, find out their favorite color & flavor, like strawberry or cherry! They’ll love it and it will keep them coming back!

  • If you want lip gloss that stays on the whole night
    • First apply chap stick and keep it on for 5 min.
    • Next wipe if off with a wet towel
    • Repeat step one – than apply gloss on top of chap stick – this works like a charm for the the woman that is going out for a night on the town or for the girl that has that special someone the tends to make you gloss disappear.

Don’t

  • Pucker your lips. If you do not you will get lip-gloss in your mouth
  • Lipstick is not lip-gloss. Lip-gloss has a shine. Lipstick is relatively matte.
  • Lip-gloss outside the “lines” lipline is very unattractive!
  • After you apply your gloss don’t blot your lips, you will loose shine and negate the purpose of your gloss!

Becca Cosmetics

August 7, 2008 By 3 Comments

A great cosmetic with a great name!

Being that I too am a Becca I had to go and figure out what Becca cosmetics was all about!  For those of you who know me you know that I do not often wear makeup.  When I do wear makeup I am a little picky as to what I will put on my face.  I have sensitive skin and most low priced makeup does not seem to agree with me.  That is why I was interested in trying Becca Cosmetics.  Te make-up at Becca Cosmetics used to be only for the busy streets of London but is not an international craze!  Their shops are everywhere!  So rather than stopping by the Este Lauder counter in Macy’s I figured I would do my research and discover what Becca Cosmetics is all about.  Here is what I found out.

Becca Cosmetics was founded by Rebecca Morrice Williams after 6 years of scientific development.The Becca products are meant to offer all women a flawless and radiant complexion.Their flagship store was opened in London in May of 2005 and is something to be seen.Makeup stations are away from the hustle and bustle of shop windows.There is an opulence that cannot be disputed within the store.The store offers a relaxing environment where one can sit with a glass of champagne, eat some succulent chocolates and be pampered.Along with makeup stations there are also hairdressing and nail facilities.These are located in the mezzanine which adds to your private, luxurious experience.If you cannot make it to the store be sure to stop by their website and try an item or two.They are not only great products loved by millions but they are also priced right with eyeliner only costing $23.00!  Be sure to stop by http://www.beccacosmetics.com you will be glad that you did.

Since posting this article I have tried out some of Becca Cosmetics products and I have to say that I was nothing but pleased.  Their products were wonderful and I did not have any reactions to them.  I enjoy their eye liner most because it goes on smooth and does not feel heavy when on. also tried some of their lip shades and am pleased to say that they are wonderful as well.  In addition to the color staying on for longer than other brands their lipstick did not dry out my lips at all!
