Becca Raspberry/Opal Beach Tint Shimmer Souffle ($27.00 for 0.20 oz.) is described as a “raspberry infused with golden opal.” It’s a muted, medium warm-toned plum with gold shimmer and a frosted sheen. Sephora + Pantone Universe Bridal Rose (LE) is more metallic, cooler-toned, powder. MAC Scene to Be Seen (Inner) (LE, $30.00) is darker, powder. MAC Lavish Living (LE, $25.00) is darker, cooler-toned. MAC Lust (LE, $30.00) is lighter. NARS G-Spot (P, $39.00) is darker, cooler-toned. NARS Lovejoy (P, $29.00) is darker, powder. See comparison swatches / view dupes.

This is one of the “cooler”-toned shades in the range, though they all seem to be on the warmer side. It had good, buildable color payoff that was mostly opaque and could be sheered out if desired. The finish is more metallic–straddling that fine line between frost and metallic–and just very slightly emphasizes the pores on my cheeks. In person, I don’t think it’s too noticeable unless you’re really looking for it. The formula delivers the “pop of color” promised along with the “illumination.” It has a wet, spongy texture that feels airy and whipped, so it’s extremely easy to apply and blend on the skin (whether bare or over foundation). It has a slightly tart, fruity scent that I can detect in the jar but not really applied. This shade lasted for seven and a half hours on me before showing signs of fading.

I got it and I absolutely love this one! I don’t really own any “cool toned” blushes, but I’m very pleased with this product. Can’t wait to do a full makeup look with it! The texture definitely caught me by surprise tho, it really is spongey lol.

On my screen, it appears you have a different color on each cheek. If so, which swatch is this product, your left or right cheek?

So pretty! I just cannot decide which of the 6 I like best. I told myself I would only get 1 for now. I know I don’t want the Papaya/Topaz because it’s too dark for me, but the 5 others are all up in the air. I think I will have the swatch them in person and hopefully that will help narrow it down! 🙂

Christine, are you planning to do a roundup of these Becca soufflés as you sometimes do? I am having trouble seeing differences between the shades, but that could be the lighting or my computer screen. Your roundups always help me compare and contrast!

While the tint shimmers are so pretty to admire, this would not be so on my oily skin. However, I have been known to buy makeup just to look at it!

I got this blindly off sephora because the others are sold out. I am glad you finally swatched this one and this is excatly how i want the hourglass to be! I remember returning it becuase it wasn’t glowy as it claims to be. This however… That’s a GLOW!

OK, this one is really pretty 😀 I think I like it the best so far! I kind of see what you mean about the pores thing, and I could actually see this working even better on a cooler skintone, oddly. Wow. This product both appeals to and confuses me, LOL!

Whatever the event, you look lovely as always! (*cough*damnyou*cough*) 😀

Phew- i feel better about ordering this shade now. I keep checking to see if the others are back in stock yet so I can grab them up, and this shade is the only one left so I was starting to have my doubts about whether or not I should have gotten it. I love the guava and watermelon one soooo much- thus is by far my fave cream blush formula!

I am not sure i am loving these. I LOVE dewy skin and am always buying products that promise that and never came across a highlight that was too much.. but for some reason these are reading bad very visible shimmer (which i didnt think existed ha!) to me. Maybe I have to try it.
