Champagne Dream x Bellini

Becca Champagne Dream x Bellini Crystal Glow Gloss ($22.00 for 0.17 fl. oz.) is a peachy gold with warm undertones and flecks of gold, green, and pink pearl. This one was one of the more “shifting” shades in the range, as it sometimes appeared warmer and golder and pinker and peachier at other times. The base had a milky quality to it, so there was a bit of color that gathered in my lip lines, though the shiny, sparkly finish made this less noticeable from a normal viewing distance. It had semi-sheer color payoff that went on fairly evenly and lasted for two and a half hours. The formula was moisturizing while worn.

Becca describes the formula as a “mix of unique pearls blended together to create a multi-dimensional finish” with “nourishing ingredients that leave lips lavishly soft and smooth” and a “luxurious coconut and vanilla scent.” They can be worn alone or applied on top of other lip colors for shine/shimmer, but the brand did not seem to make any more specific claims with respect to pigmentation–given that they are supposed to be worn on top of products but could be worn alone, I am expecting semi-sheer to medium coverage.

In general, the formula is more like a sheer to semi-sheer gloss with moderate pearl, sometimes with more nuance and other times was more like a traditional, shimmery gloss. The formula was lightweight, thin, lightly tacky, and comfortable to wear but only lasted two to three hours. For most of the shades, I detected the scent throughout the wear but only tasted soapiness with one (Topaz x Gilt). The glosses were less shifting in their shimmer/pearl as they were just sparkly and mirror-like in shine.

Opal x Jade

Becca Opal x Jade Liquid Crystal Glow Gloss ($22.00 for 0.17 fl. oz.) is a soft, medium pink with warm undertones and flecks of gold sparkle and finer gold and pink pearl. There was no real shift to this one; it did not seem to change–it was shimmery and shiny. It had sheer coverage from the base color and semi-sheer coverage from the shimmer, which was moderate and noticeable. The gloss was lightweight, thin but not clingy, and lightly tacky, though I could feel some of the sparkles after an hour of wear. It wore well for two and a half hours and was hydrating.

Rose Quartz x Seashell

Becca Rose Quartz x Seashell Liquid Crystal Glow Gloss ($22.00 for 0.17 fl. oz.) is a light, pinky-coral with warm undertones and flecks of larger gold and lavender sparkle paired with finer gold pearl. It had semi-sheer to medium color coverage with a noticeable base color (which was more of amilky pink on my lips but will vary based on one’s natural lip color) and plenty of shimmer and sparkle. There was a subtle shift as it sometimes appeared pinker and other times appeared more golden. The texture was lightweight, spreadable, and comfortable to wear as it was hydrating and only felt the edges of the sparkle at the end of wear. It lasted for two and a half hours on me.
