Becca Beach Bum, Beach Nectar, Malibu Soleil Glow Glosses Reviews & Swatches
Beach Bum
Becca Beach Bum Glow Gloss ($22.00 for 0.18 oz.) is a deep peach with warm undertones and a cream finish. It had good color coverage that applied without streaking along the edges, but there was slight color that gathered in my lip lines. The consistency was smooth, almost cream-like, and lightweight with a high-shine finish. This shade lasted well for four hours and was hydrating while worn.

Formula Overview
$22.00/0.18 oz. - $122.22 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have the "shine of a lip gloss" with the "pigment of a liquid lipstick" and the "nourishing benefits of a lip balm." It's more like a semi-sheer to semi-opaque lip gloss with a lightly to moderately hydrating formula based on the three shades I tried out (there are 10 in total). The formula has a sweet mint scent but no discernible taste to me (with a slight tingle that doesn't last for long). The texture was lightweight, smooth, and balm-like that wasn't tacky and comfortable to wear.

Beach Nectar
Becca Beach Nectar Glow Gloss ($22.00 for 0.18 oz.) is a medium-dark coral with warm undertones and multi-colored pearl. The gloss yielded semi-sheer coverage that was buildable to medium coverage with a second layer. It had a smooth, thin, and lightweight texture that wasn’t quite as cream-like as Beach Bum but was still quite comfortable to wear and easy enough to spread across my lips for even coverage. The formula here did a better job smoothing out my lip lines, too. It wore well for three and a half hours and was moisturizing while worn.

Malibu Soleil
Becca Malibu Soleil Glow Gloss ($22.00 for 0.18 oz.) is a medium-dark, rosy mauve with warm undertones and a cream finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation that covered my lips fairly evenly, but there was a faint line left behind whenever I pressed my lips together. The gloss emphasized a few of my lip lines a bit, but from a normal viewing distance, I didn’t notice it. The gloss had a smooth consistency that was creamy but not heavy or thick on my lips. The color stayed on well for four hours and felt hydrating to my lips.

Malibu Soleil is gorgeous!
Beach Nectar is calling my name. On it goes to my ‘check out in store’ list.
Beach Nectar is so beautiful! It has that same appeal to me as a throw & go lipgloss as Fenty Universal Gloss Bomb does. And since I already have the (OG) face palette in my cart…. ?
These are beautiful summery shades and the Malibu one is lovely.
Beach Nectar is beautiful but I already had plans to purchase CP Champagne Mami which I’m glad to see is a dupe for this! Perhaps if this one goes on sale…..
