I imagine if you want to be a mermaid the first step is purchasing this Rodin Olio Lusso Illuminating Powder ($50). I mean really though, as tired as I am of mermaids and unicorns even I want to get my hands on this!

The talc-free formula is a gel powder formulated that gives skin a gorgeous ethereal glow but that’s not really what’s so excited about this highlighter. Nope, not caring about the highlighter portion at all! I’m all about the design! The powder is printed with a pretty mermaid lounging under the sea with starfish and shells. Adorable!

It’s a bit expensive but this is one of those highlighters that begging to become a part of my beauty vault.

Rodin Olio Lusso Illuminating Powder is available now at nordstrom.com and neimanmarcus.com.

Oh by the way, it isn’t mermaid related but I got an e-mail that Something in the Rain hit Dramafever (and also Netflix I think!?). I sadly can’t watch it at the moment so I’m depending on some of you to tell me how it is! I heard great things.

Jung Hae In plays a younger guy who falls in love with his sister’s older best friend. Jung Hae In is 30 years old but he has just the baby face to pull off the part. I’ve seen a few clips over the last several weeks (it aired in Korea back in March and just recently ended its run) and it looks rather cute.

If you started it already let me know how it is!

Becca Be A Light Face Palette ($46) brings together four different powders that act to brighten your complexion, blur the appearance of pores and fine, contour and define, and add a flush of color.

The palette is available in a Light to Medium and Medium to Deep shade selection each of which, as I said above, holds four different powders that can be used individually or together to illuminate skin and cast a glow on your complexion.

Light to Medium Palette:

• Brighten Powder: A soft pearl powder that brightens the complexion.
• Blur Powder: A flattering beige that blurs imperfections and warms the complexion.
• Contour: A neutral tan shade to enhance and define your features.
• Blush: A light pink marbled with silver pearl for a pop of color and light.

Medium to Deep Palette:

• Brighten Powder: A neutral peach shade that highlights the complexion.
• Blur Powder: A warm sand shade that blurs and enhances the complexion.
• Contour: A warm bronze shade that creates natural dimension.
• Blush: A warm copper marbled with rose gold pearl.

The way Becca describes it, it quite sounds like Hourglass’ Ambient Lighting Powder which I love so I’m interested to see how this holds up in comparison! I actually like the idea of using the brightening powder to set my concealer but not sure if that’ll work out so well because it appears to have a pearl finish.

Don’t become too attached though as this is available for a limited time only!

Becca Be A Light Face Palette are available now at sephora.com and ulta.com.
