Why I Love Becca Cosmetics Aqua Luminous Perfecting Foundation
Thursday, January 14, 2016- I am extremely oily and this product is all about luminosity
- It's summer here in Australia, so I'm even shinery currently than usual
First up, I think I have to address the packaging. I thought that it would be a regular pump foundation but wow I was wrong. It's closely related to a perfume dropper bottle. You twist the lid, a button pops up. You press that button to collect product in the little dropper and then press the button again to dispense the product. I really enjoy this because I can really control how much I want, exactly. I also think that if you do freelance makeup, this would be great to have in your kit because it's really hygienic this way.
The formula is intended to provide 'water-light coverage in every luminescent drop'. One thing that I love about this foundation is its flexibility when it comes to coverage.
The Becca The One Perfecting Brush provides light coverage. Unfortunately, as amazing as The One feels, mine was shedding extremely so I had to switch it out for my trusty beauty blender. I'm sure if you had a similar foundation brush that you love, it would also provide a lighter coverage.
Using the beauty blender, I created medium coverage which you see in the picture below.

Personally, I find this foundation is pretty incredible. I think it's also a great learning curve for myself and other oily skinned makeup lovers out there. Just because something is intended to add an extra glow to your skin, do not be afraid. Whenever I wear the foundation, I easily get a good 4 hours before I need to blot. By the time I say to myself I need to blot, that's only a little bit of oil on my nose which quickly disappears. All in all, I can definitely wear this foundation for a solid 9 hours.
I believe the coverage is great because of its flexibility. The finish that it gives your skin makes it look like you were sent from the heavens. It gives the right amount of glow in all the right places. Even as someone with oily skin, I still receive compliments whenever I wear this foundation.
Becca Cosmetics Aqua Luminous Perfecting Foundation is available here for $68AUD.
