new BECCA Aqua luminous Perfecting foundation ($44, offered in eight shades)
Do we like new BECCA Aqua luminous Perfecting Foundation? Yes, indeed we dew-y. since — oh, my goodness! — the surface is so dewy as well as so radiant that I’m crediting it for almost singlehandedly lifting me out of my mid-winter funk as well as propelling me toward summer.
Aqua luminous is the latest foundation in BECCA’s long-term line and, as you can most likely tell from its name, it’s one of those thin, serum-like foundations with a watery consistency that have been muy prominent at the moment.

Typical of foundations with this type of formula, it is available in a glass bottle with a dropper, however BECCA modified that concept a bit by providing this a special cap. When you twist it, a button appears in the middle, as well as pressing it dispenses the product from the dropper.
Ooh! Wymyślny!
I’ve tried a couple of these serum-like foundations before — I believe the one by Dior is great, as is this from MAC — so I was psyched to likewise try this one.

Where does it stand with those two? Well, I believe it stands TALL, particularly if you like dewy finishes. Dior’s has a more matte surface as well as the fullest coverage; the one from MAC has more of a semi-matte surface as well as a medium coverage, as well as BECCA’s has the sheerest, dewiest finish, meaning that it shows more light than the other two.
The look truly reminds me of the look I get with NARS Pure Radiant tinted Moisturizer, except that Pure Radiant does provide more coverage.
Now about that sheerness… This stuff definitely doesn’t cover every freckle as well as mole, as well as it reminds me of something from back in they day… I don’t understand if you’ve been complying with BECCA for long, however waaaaaay back (years ago), they had a foundation system with a extremely sheer tinted moisturizer you’d utilize around your face. then you’d utilize a stick foundation to pop a bit more foundation on all the locations where you desired more coverage. then you’d set whatever with their loose powders, which were AMAZING, by the way! I hope they bring those powders back someday…
Ktokolwiek! The concept was natural-looking skin that looked right at home, whether at the beach or the grocery store, a.k.a in daily life.
Aqua luminous Perfecting foundation reminds me of that old tinted moisturizer.

I believe the surface is what many people will like about this: we are speaking DEWY. Like, it can venture into “editorial” (air quotes) magazine territory, where it can begin to look…how shall I put this? – tłusty? (If you aren’t careful.)
But if you can discover the right mix, the surface can look incredibly natural, like you’re directly chillin’ at the beach eating a shave ice without a care in the world…
I’ve tried it with a lot of different primers as well as powders (my shade’s Medium, as well as I’m a MAC NC42 for reference), as well as my preferred way, where the surface is delightfully dewy however not shockingly shiny, is when I begin with a pore-blurring primer beneath (and I like comprise For ever Smoothing primer for this).
Powód? since this foundation by itself doesn’t “disappear” my pores as much as I’d like, so I want the additional skin-smoothing help.
Then I set the foundation with a semi-matte powder (MAC Mineralize Skinfinish natural in medium Tan), as well as this is vital since without the powder, the surface can look borderline oily…
The technique is to just utilize the powder where you truly requirement it, as opposed to all over, to balance out the shininess while preserving the general radiant effect. I’ll dust my forehead, then on as well as around my nose, my mouth as well as my chin.
