Youtube star, turned cosmetic creator overnight. Jaclyn Hill joined forces with BECCA cosmetics to turn the beauty world upside down.
By now, everyone who is anyone should know of the beautiful and talented Jaclyn Hill. YouTube content creator turned businesswoman; Hill began this journey by creating Shimmering Skin Perfector Champagne Pop with BECCA cosmetics that allows you to amplify your natural radiance with a pop of rose gold perfection.
The BECCA’s new collection includes: Champagne Collection Face Palette ($52), Shimmering Skin Perfector™ – Champagne Pop – soft white gold w/ pinky peach undertones ($41), Shimmering Skin Perfector Poured Crème – Champagne Pop – soft white gold w/ pinky peach undertones ($38), Shimmering Skin Perfector™ Pressed – Champagne Pop – soft white gold w/ pinky peach undertones ($38)
If you want to get your hands on this collection, it is still available at Sephora and at select locations (For now).
I had the opportunity to get my hands on the coveted face palette, and I am in love. My favorite thing about this palette is that it suits every skin tone. Most times, when it comes to some of the cult-favorite palettes in the beauty world, they are not dark-tone friendly, but this one is…thank you, Jaclyn!
The palette features Two, large, creamy, golden highlighters—the original Champagne Pop (left), and a brand-new shade called Prosecco Pop (right)—and three new blush/highlighter shades: (from left) Shimmer, Matte, and Satin.
- Champagne Pop (her famous white gold/pink highlighter)
- Rosé Spritz (a luminous blush shade), which is a sparkly pink with gold accents
- Amaretto, a toasted almond
- Pamplemousse, a coral-pink
- Prosecco Pop, an extremely warm gold
After watching Hill’s video presenting her collection, the blush shade she is most excited over is Prosecco Pop. “It’s a true gold, and it’s what I’ve been wearing constantly,” Hill said, “I’ve been wearing it, like, eight times out of ten times I do my makeup.”
The cheek palette arrives in a metallic gold box. On the back of the box is a description of the palette and a picture of Jaclyn Hill. The palette itself is a shiny and gold, it is prone to finger tip marks. The front of the palette is a shiny white with gold & silver specks around the front to mimic a champagne bottle popping with all the droplets falling down (s’cute). The BECCA logo & Jaclyn’s name is in the center. The palette has a nice weight to it; it is not too heavy, it feels very luxurious, and it also features a HUGE mirror and a good one, might I add. Snaps for you, BECCA, and Jaclyn!
Pigmentation in this palette is off the charts with these powders. The highlighters do have a metallic finish and can look chunky if you apply too much(a little goes a long way). The chunkiness may emphasize large pores, acne scars, or any existing acne if not applied on prepped skin. The blushes have a beautiful finish and give a nice flush to every skin type.
Getting my hands on this palette was a journey, let me tell you that. Now I have it, and I am never letting go!
