Today, let’s talk about strobing, the brand Becca Cosmetics and Jaclyn Hill. Yes, all that! wink<\/span> <\/h2>\n

If you’re not used to watching makeup tutorials YouTube videos or spending time on Instagram<\/a> to find some makeup inspirations, you’re probably asking yourself what on earth I’m talking about…<\/p>\n

Recently, I watched a lot of YouTube videos for inspiration with my makeup. Because even if I always loved it, I’ve never been very good at makeup, to be honest. I’m not completely bad, I’m OK, but I’m very far from the level of a “makeup artist”. And above all, I suffer from a serious lack of creativity in my makeup.
\nIf I find a makeup ‘look’ that I like, I wear it all the time, almost to death which results in all my makeup look tending to look very similar. And … well, that’s such a shame<\/strong>!
\nEspecially when you have a nice collection of makeup products, it’s silly, isn’t it?<\/p>\n

On YouTube, you can find a lot of makeup\u00a0tutorials but some clearly stand out and are more successful than others. While I was watching my favorite YouTube channels (Kathleen Lights, Nikkie Tutorials etc, the entire list of my YouTube subscriptions is here <\/a>if you want to take a look\u00a0;) ), a name often came up: Jaclyn Hill<\/a>. I watch a lot more US and UK YouTube channels than French ones.<\/p>\n

The first time I watched one of her videos, I almost had to take a sedative, because\u00a0this girl is so -how to say this diplomatically- so full of life<\/strong>. She is very energetic, bubbly, super smiley all the time. A little too much for me to handle, I admit… I need to watch in small doses wink<\/span>
\nHer makeup is super colorful, sometimes very intense, not always my style. But I learn a lot of techniques<\/strong>\u00a0watching her and especially, if I adjust them to my tastes, it gives me a lot of ideas<\/strong>. Including cool associations of colors<\/strong> that I probably would never think of by myself.<\/p>\n

At the moment, Jaclyn does a lot (like A LOT) (it’s a bit too much for me) of collaborations with indie makeup brands and lately she has collaborated with an Australian brand: Becca cosmetics<\/a>.<\/p>\n

To be honest, I don’t really know the brand but\u00a0I had been hearing raving reviews about their range of highlighters for ages, the Shimmering Skin Perfector<\/a>\u00a0(which exist in pressed, cream or liquid versions).
\nMany US ans UK YouTubers are crazy about them and they are considered as the best highlighters on the market.<\/p>\n

So I was very curious to see if they deserved their reputation…<\/p>\n

What Becca says about it:<\/p>\n

\n

BECCA collaborated with YouTube beauty celebrity and makeup artist Jaclyn Hill to create a new limited-edition shade of their number one bestselling luminizer powder. Featuring her dream shade, Champagne Pop\u2014a soft white, gold shade with pinky peach undertones\u2014this creamy luminizer leaves the skin with a soft pearlized glow. It\u2019s infused with light-reflecting pearls that beautifully catch the light, allowing your favorite features to pop. Just apply to targeted areas, or simply sweep it up on the cheekbones and down the bridge of the nose for quick, radiant perfection. <\/span>
\nA devoted fan of Shimmering Skin Perfector\u00ae Pressed in Opal, Jaclyn Hill worked one on one with the BECCA team to create this exclusive shade, inspired by the luxurious lightness and spirited essence of champagne. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Champagne Pop color is supposed to suit all skin tones<\/strong>, from the lightest to the darkest.<\/p>\n

This shade is a limited edition<\/strong> and many say that the color is a middle ground between two existing colors in the permanent range, Moonstone<\/a> (pale gold) and Opal<\/a>(yellow gold).
\nI honestly have no idea\u00a0because I only own Moonstone in liquid<\/a>. But when you see the pictures, it makes sense…<\/p>\n

For my complexion, Champagne Pop is a great highlighter for summer<\/strong>, it’s perfect on my skin when it’s a little tanned. I don’t think it would clash on my skin when it’s lighter, but I usually prefer these kind of peachy colors<\/strong> during the summer. smile<\/span> <\/p>\n
