Becca Parisian Lights Looks A Lot Beach Nectar But I Still Want It

The new Becca x Sananas Parisian Lights Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed has arrived and I am in love with it. Created in collaboration with French Blogger, Sananas and youTuber this new shade is inspired by the twinkling lights of the Eiffel Tower and even has a gorgeous embossment of it on the powder.

The color is a duochrome pink with golden pearl which I suspect will have a golden peach shift in a certain light. I have to admit I’m currently torn about wanting this. One side of me says yes, you need it especially since it is limited edition. But somewhere in the back of mind someone is whispering that it looks a lot like Beach Nectar from the Becca X Chrissy Teigen Glow Face Palette.

Ugh what a dilemma! What to do?

I’m think I’m going to bite the bullet and just go with it. As you know, I’m not much of a highlighter girl but Becca does some of the best highlighters I ever did try and they are such a great compliment to some blushes I already own from them. I love popping a little of their blush on my cheeks and topping it with one of their highlighters. It gives such a beautiful luminous glow. Although, I have been known to be carried away with it a time or two which resulted in some disco ball cheeks. Word to the wise, use a fan brush and apply very subtly and build as needed as these have quite a bit of shimmer.

Becca Parisian Lights is $38 and available now a beautylish.com. I have a feeling resistance in futile with this one.

Will you be indulging?

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    Hello – I’m weak… we know this. I bought mine from Beautylish at 9A yesterday, it shipped yesterday afternoon and is scheduled to be delivered today. The Beautylish shipping warehouse is about 45 mins North of San Jose in South San Francisco. I make all the excuses and justifications to buy a new Becca highlighter (IF it’s in a light enough color that will work on my fair skin) because they’re my favorite formula and packaging. I skipped the Chrissy palette (but got it for my mom, so I play in hers when I go over there), I’m hoping this isn’t super close to the Lilac Geode shade. That one comes off super pinky gold. I can’t stop watching the front door, I want it now!

      LOL ;-D I ordered it too so I’m weak as well! let me know how it goes!? Curious how it looks in person! Mine arrives Thursday squeeee!

        It’s VERY peachy-gold. Just looking at it without comparing to all my other Becca highlighters, it’s looking like a cross between Lilac Geode and Pink Quartz. Really pretty and blended out beautifully. Same silver packaging as the LE Smokey Quartz.

    I have Beach Nectar as well. This one seems less peach (just judging from photos online though). I wish it was made available at Ulta or Sephora so I could swatch it. I want it almost exclusively for the embossed Eiffel Tower lol

    • Isabella Muse

      noooooooooooo I was hoping for more peach ;-D I want it because of the Eiffel Tower print as well ;-D I do wonder if Sephora will get it at the very least!

    Wish roll outs would be in mini size too so people could try it out. The color looks workable for me.

    I justified buying mine by saying I could use it in Paris when I go in March.

    I’m so, SO weak.

      • Michou

        Right?!?! Btw, sorry I’ve been radio silent for so long. It was a really, really bad year. :hugs:

        Hope things have been well with you.

          😉 Take me with you! It’s been two years since I’ve been to Paris! I need a trip to ALL the pharmacies ;-D haha! Awww I’m sorry. You doing ok? Don’t worry! I missed you but I understand! I hope things turn upward for you really soon! <3! I'm well! Tired. Work has been kicking my butt! Thanks for asking 🙂

          • Michou

            I haven’t gone since 2014 so I totally get how it feels to miss such a wonderful place. Things are just really hectic. I’m in a computer science bootcamp, working full time, had some health issues that are working out slowly… just a lot.

            So glad you’re well, despite work kicking your butt. 😛

    Please do a comparison if ever you’ll buy the Parisian Lights!!! I am wondering too!
