It seems like rose gold colored powders just disappear into my skin, unfortunately. I've got my sights on the Topaz pressed powder. That'll make 3 Becca powders for me in the span of 2 weeks.
That happens to me, too! It's usually just straight up gold by the time I buff it in. I would usually have to wear like a plummy colour and then put the "rose gold" over it for the rosy undertones to show up. I think all the red in my undertones cancel it out or something.

I'm yellow and it still doesn't do what I want it to do. I just love rose gold jewelry so much that I figured rose gold highlighters would be a slam dunk. Not the case, though.

Have any of you mixed the liquid shimmering skin perfector into your lotion? I'm thinking of buying topaz and mixing it in for when I go on my next beach vacation so I can just be a walking halo

That's too bad! So what's the answer-----a highlighter w/more pink in it than gold? Like a BB Shimmer Brick in Rose or Sunset Pink??

Uh-oh. That's how it starts---then before you know it, you have 50.

So, I haven't succumbed to a Becca highlighter yet, but I'm interested in trying. I'm just nervous that it'll end up emphasizing my pores. I also want to find one that doesn't look like the other highlighters I have. Any thoughts on which shades are more unique? Or that might work best on a neutral-cool complexion? I'm pretty pale, but I'm generally ok with wearing deeper or brighter shades as a combo highlighter and blush.

I have no idea what the answer is. Come to think of it, the Ardency Inn rose gold shadow is something I used as a highlighter a few weeks ago to see what would happen. The color stayed true, but I put on too much. :haha: It was rose gold highlighter on steroids. Even though it's so pigmented as a shadow I was heavy handed with it. I'll try it out again and go easy and see how it goes because any actual rose gold highlighters haven't really gotten the job done. I tried a Shimmer Brick a few years ago and hated it. Fallout, mediocre color. Ick.

:haha: I'm actually looking forward to future releases. I see I've missed some from the past. I'm loving my Blushed Copper and Champagne Pop.

Fair ladies seem to love Moonstone. I think that one, Opal, or even Rose Gold would be great for you.

I would say Moonstone too but also to get to Sephora bare-faced to try them!

Hmmm, that's really strange. That said though, Cargo has a waterproof blush (swimmables, they call them) in the shade Los Cabos that is rose gold and actually shows. I have a Lancome one that also shows up but I'd have to check the name when I get home tonight.

Hi guys, I apologize if this has been asked before but are there any cheaper dupes for Rosegold and Topaz?
Ulta just sent out the 20% off coupon and I have them in my cart but want to do my due diligence first :-D

Usually the coupons can't be used on Becca. Did you check? Just fyi...
