Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector Opal Glow on the Go - review and swatches

BECCA is a brand I've never tried, but their Shimmering Skin Perfectors are all the rage on YouTube and the blogging sphere. With the release of Jaclyn Hill's Champagne Pop, if you didn't know about BECCA before, you definitely do now. I saw this set around a few weeks before Sephora Online launched, and once it did, I had to pick this set up. The set includes a sample of the Shimmering Skin Perfector Spotlights in Opal, and the Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed in Opal. Opal appears to be one of the more popular shades of choice, and for $45, it sounded much better than $60 for one product when I can get two (obviously the size of the product is a lot smaller, but I get to try out two products).

The Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Opal is absolutely gorgeous. In this set, the size of the product is 2.40 grams, as opposed to 8 grams for the full sized. However, you only need a tiny bit of the powder for super glowy skin, so it would take a while to get through this. In regards to the liquid, the full size comes with a massive 50mL, and the one in the set comes with 5mL.

BECCA describes the set as following: "Let your features shine with Shimmering Skin Perfector and Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed in best selling shades Opal. Perfect to create a range of looks, these travel friendly versions of BECCA's #1 selling luminizor allow for targeted highlighting, touch ups, and the ability to achieve a natural glow wherever you go".

The packaging describes the Spotlight (liquid) as a formula that "features ultra-fine light-reflecting pearls that melt into your skin for polished, natural-looking radiance". The Pressed is described as having a "velvet finish".

Overall, I'm really impressed with this set. The Pressed in Opal has become a favourite everyday highlight. For nights out or when I want super extreme highlight, I will use both products together. Since purchasing this set, I have also purchased the Limited Edition Champagne Pop. I'm really impressed with the two shades of highlighters. If you can still pick up this set online, I would recommend it!
